I had this health screening at Prince Court last spring. I was so blown away by the quality, efficiency, and comprehensive nature of the screening (so much more than any physical you could ever get in the US, and for such an inexpensive price), I have decided from now on to make an annual trip to KL and Prince Court to have my health screening. Furthermore, as a full-time traveler I am now making Prince Court my location for health care in Southeast Asia.

I was there for an emergency with my then 5 month old son. The cost was $60 and I asked: „This is for the medicine, right?“ the lady „No, for everything“ Prince Court is amazing. Next time I‘ll do the check up as well 👍
People who live a really long time are exceptional. The best way to live long is to pretty much never get sick or never need surgery. People who live that long are less sickly and didn't need medical care.
@@KManAbout BULLSHIT!!! Although prevention is key, no one is immune from accident, injury, and illness. Including the healthiest people who live the longest.
Prince Court SHOULD be paying you for promoting them, Andrew haha. I've seen multiple videos you have made in relation to Price Court. Heck, the first video that brought me to Nomad Capital was the one you did couple of years back explaining why you liked KL, and one of the main reason was due to medical and treatment cost ( specifically the aforementioned Prince Court!)
I have a story from last February from Switzerland (supposedly a very expensive place). A friend of mine got a not very high but stubborn fever while in Lausanne so on the 5th day of this we decided he should see a doctor. Of course he had absolutely no Swiss insurance of any kind and a US citizen. There was an urgent care center a short walking distance from our Airbnb so we went there and after 1 hour he walked away with an antibiotic prescription. Guess the total cost? Answer: 115 Swiss francs (about 128 US dollars). And this was urgent care, immediate attention.
@@ktthong Yes, I'm not surprised. I mentioned the story only because Switzerland is supposed to be super expensive 🙂 Another story: a friend of mine in Chicago wanted an MRI. Cost: about $8,000. The same exactly thing in Warsaw: about $150 (same machine, same everything).
It depends on what you get. When my ex wife was my fiancee, she fell so we took her to urgent care. We told them she had no insurance but were going to pay in full. The doctor plus xrays were about $350. I honestly felt this was reasonable for what she got. Of course after Bidenomics its probably closer to 900 now
Just few days ago I saw a postscript to this story: another person I know got a similar infection in the US and went to an urgent care center. His insurance paid for it but I saw the paperwork: the cost without insurance would have been a bit over 1,800 US dollars. That's 15x (FIFTEEN TIMES) the Swiss amount (and Switzerland is so expensive, you know).
Thank you guys for putting me onto this, I will be booking a trip next year . I'm excited to see what proper health care looks like, I think it'll be a far cry from US standards.
Malaysia mexico Indonesia should be well promoted for medical tourism . i heard that many middle class us come to these countries for major health issues.
@@2Rugrats9597 yes Mexico , Malaysia, Vietnam, Indonesia is the best South korea china if u have aomewhat money . Mexico is best in generally because most mexicans are poor it would help them locally also. Turkey is also good but never went there
CNN was trying scare tactics because of one fatality in a Mexican clinic. Neglecting the ones that happen in the US hospitals. Those dems in the corporate media will gaslight whenever they can.
Indonesia is a no. I feel like you put them in the list solely because they sound like Malaysia, therefore must be similar (in your estimation). They've never been a thing in medical tourism. Even according to their own citizen, their healthcare industry towards their own citizen is in dire need to be reformed. In fact, few months ago their President opened a new facility with the aim to deter their own from seeking treatment from 2 specific countries; Malaysia and Singapore.
Remember my wife was in very bad conditions a couple of years ago when we stayed in KL. Thanks to the staff everything went fine after few days, Service is just amazing and as you mentioned in the video, nothing comes even close in the Western World to Prince Court.
They are always more careful and thorough in Asia too! From getting my teeth cleaned to getting a hair cut - seem to spend a long time and have better attention to detail.
That service in the US would be one office visit per exam and you’d max out your out of pocket limit. All that in just 3 hours is unheard of!! You’ll have 3 hours invested in just one visit if you’re lucky in the US.
Thank you, Andrew. I love the videos where you are "Living the Life". There are a couple of people that are doing what you do now, and they sometimes disparage which I find tasteless. I like that you are always steadfast and true to your nature without having to disparage others. I believe it's from your American roots/parents. When you disparage others it says a lot more about you than it does about the person you are speaking about. Well done.
Andrew, once again, your content is so unique and informative. I'm almost 60 and getting ready to move to Eastern Europe next year for semi-retirement (plenty of biz opps there!), yet I'm looking forward to my 80's and 90's and Malaysia is at the top of my list for that! In the meantime, a quick jaunt to Italy, Turkey (cosmetic, dentistry) or Malaysia if I need to go that far is certainly an option.
Yeah, medical needs are a lot cheaper overseas. When I lived in Panama 12 years ago, I thought I had somehow acquired Dengue Fever (because the main symptom I had was the feeling of my bones being crushed; Dengue Fever is familiarly known as "The Bone Crushing Disease"). Thankfully it was only food poisoning. However, my point is, it was a Sunday and I had 3 nurses, 2 lab technicians and 2 doctors servicing me for 5 hours in the Emergency department at a PRIVATE hospital. When I left, the bill was ... $16.73! WTF?!? 5 hours x 7 medical staff?!? In the USA probably $500-$1,000. I'm Canadian, so it would have been "free" (or rather taxpayer-funded) in Canada but you would have to wait the whole day to get seen w/ only 0.25 nurse looking after you.)
First off, you’d be hard pressed to find 3 nurses, 2 lab technicians and 2 doctors, working as a team, serving a single patient for 5 hours in the Emergency department at a PRIVATE hospital on a Sunday in the U.S. And add another zero to your estimate. At least 10k for all of that service without insurance. You had an amazing (and respectful) experience, glad you are well.
I went to the emergency clinic yesterday for tennis elbow. They LITERALLY DID NOTHING. No brace. No steroid shot. NOTHING. A COMPLETE WASTE OF MONEY with very rude unfriendly American women
Not surprised one bit. Did you at least get a referral to a sports medicine doctor or a physiatrist. Those are the doctors you want to go to for a condition like that. Also, avoid orthopedic surgeons like the plague and this is based on personal experience.
@@hankmoody5514 - Call around for a sports medicine doctor or a physiatrist. Let them take care of you. If they require a referral, contact the urgent care facility that you need a referral from them. Also, expect to go to physical therapy as first/primary treatment.
Great video. I remember walking into one of the best private hospitals in Bangkok without an appointment for an emergency. Within 15 minutes i was checked in and in the doctors office. Facilities and equipment were on par with brand name American hospitals and the entire visit was less than $50 without insurance. I was in shock.
I am living in rural Thailand. Last week I went to the private hospital in Ubon Ratchathani about an hour from my house. I have medical insurance with a 40,000 baht ($1,100) deductible. I arrived at the hospital with no appointment. I was able to see a neurologist about 90 minutes later. I got an MRA (similar to an MRI) which took about an hour. Afterwards my Dr. Explained the results (I’m OK). I was done in time for lunch. The total cost was 15,100 baht, about $415. English speaking Dr. Excellent service & equipment. I’m from the San Francisco Bay Area. I could never have gotten this level of care, even with insurance, this easily, and at this low cost in the Bay Area. This is typical of my health care experiences in Thailand. My typical cost of an emergency room visit - Dr’s care & pain killers - $75, again with no insurance. I’ve had similar full body checkups in Thailand for about $300.
I do my yearly checkup at KPJ hospital, its only around rm300++(less than 100usd). For the price it includes heart function, blood test, urine test and eye test, and it only takes like 2 hours to get the results
I used go to a dentist in Thailand. Better and more cost effective service. Everything here in Australia is always so difficult.. I recently had surgery locally and wish I did not. It was a bit of an ordeal. I'm looking to be able to increase my options in the next five years.
Thank you so much!! Your information is so valuable, also for people who are not yet millionaire....😊 And very kind of you to take such good care of your team members!
Medical tourism is a beautiful thing, I know people who have done it for dental work and minor surgeries in Thailand - they saved thousands. Earlier this year I was in the Philippines, caught a nasty cold that turned out to be a sinus infection. Visited a private hospital in Cebu - no appointment or insurance - I did have to wait a couple hours but I did get seen by an ear/nose/throat specialist. Exam and a prescription for antibiotics (which got me back to good health in 5 days) was less than $90 USD. Try that in America and see what it will set you back.
I know a lot of people in the US that have flown to Costa Rica for dental work. Airfare, a week's stay in a hotel, the procedure and food were about 1/3 what it costs here. Not sure how the medical is there but I've known a few women that went there for plastic surgery. I know Thailand is solid all around
I was Sailing in Indonesia and developed a cyst in my Back . went to the Local Medical Center , a nurse looked at it , than a Doctor looked at it .

Of course, you can't get this type of physical any longer in the US. I just had my annual physical and besides the usual paperwork, I had to request any tests that I thought may be necessary (the doctor did not make a recommendation on this) and I had to ask if I needed to see a specialist for other stuff I have concerns with. The doctor took out his stethoscope and listened to my heart and my lungs as well as tested my reflexes with the little hammer. They also did blood work. "Everything is great" Then the physical took a weird turn. I was then asked questions about the date I last changed the batteries in our smoke alarms and carbon dioxide alarms and how many fire extinguishers we have in our home. The doctor then moved on to discussing firearms safety and was curious if I had considered harming anyone in the past 3 months. Of course, COVID and flu vaccines were discussed and then they said that the state's database on me was not complete and asked about a lot of other things I thought were strange. I may need to take a trip to KL to have this checkup done and schedule a few procedures while I am there.
Hey Andrew , can you please do a video ranking the best healthcare you’ve gotten around the world ? I know Malaysia has been good but I’m curious about others .
Th NHS UK 🇬🇧 is a total disaster and so it the private medical there . Asia has much more superior healthcare and cheaper . 👍 thanks for the great informative video
Memories of my medical tourism to Tijuana, Mexico in 1998 for LASIK. $1700 vs $5000 in U.S. Many factors in the price difference, including the laser. Only one laser was approved in the USA at the time, but three were approved in Canada and Japan. Countries I trust to vet medical devices. At the time, not only was capital required for the laser, but the laser company required a royalty fee for each use.
i live in Mexico and looked for this over and over with my Mexico family, you have to piece this together a blood lab. then a xray lab, then a caridoligst, then a uroglist, then a internest, ie after living in se asia b4 i knew what i was looking for So no you can not get this package check up in Mexico
There is a list of procedures for these standard health check ups. If there is anything you want to add then you tell them and you pay additional. For my last checkup I asked for a couple of additional blood tests - small stuff. Previously I got an additional body scan to look for kidney stones. Any procedure you ask for will probably be much cheaper than in your home country.
Stop rubbing it in to us poor Canadians that have to put up with a broken system that we handsomely pay for and corrupt politicians live off. We don't even have a choice in this country.
To be fair, this is private healthcare. The public, much like your national healthcare, is only RM1 for all these checkup and prescription, if any. We don't do any national healthcare insurance like you do, all it takes is our national identification card and no other maintenance payment. We are also not limited to seek medical attention from facilities based on the address used in the identification card. Stop rubbing in your face, you say? I'll see myself out 😂 (Good luck, though, fellow Commonwealth friend! 💪)
Amazing! Makes me an ordinary person want to flew over there to get treatment. Especially, for something like a hernia repair or similar. Is this care subsidized by their government? Have heard amazing stories about Panama and Thailand but never heard a first hand report on either place.
I am living in rural Thailand. Last week I went to the private hospital in Ubon Ratchathani about an hour from my house. I have medical insurance with a 40,000 baht ($1,100) deductible.

I’ve had similar full body checkups in Thailand for about $300.
Private healthcare in Malaysia is not subsidized by the government, but it is checked-and-balanced by the fact that it is competing with the government's RM1 healthcare (that's how much a Malaysian pay for these checkups AND 3 months of prescribed medicine if they were to do it from public facility) as well as a very active, litigious society. Most Malaysians using private healthcare facility do it under their insurance coverage, and insurance is notorious for questioning every cent billed. If there is any unreasonable price hike such as billing face mask beyond the market rate, the hospital will get a hefty fine, along with record with local authority (as well as the court, should the patient decide to take it there).
Andrew you cad ! I love how you have all attractive Slavic women as executives. Slavics have great values and an amazing work ethic, great choice. I've been poking around that area looking for a secondary place and a primary partner 😉 Keep up the great content. -Andrew
I'm in Slovenia. I'm traveling for 5 weeks starting from Cologne Germany to Balkan countries. I had to go to the emergency room yesterday, which was right next to my hotel. There was no waiting time. The doctor immediately identified my issue and gave me three prescriptions. The pharmacy was right next to it, and once again, there was no waiting time. I was able to get my medicines immediately. I paid 19 euros for the doctor's visit and around 20 euros for all my medicines. If I were in the United States, I know it would have been close to a $2,000 bill, as I have no medical insurance. 😲😲😲😲😲😲😲 Insane!!!
I did the same thing in Germany this summer it cost me about 450 € with the insurance probably covering a further 250 € and it took about 1,5 hours. It's not as cheap as Malaysia but I'm pretty confident it's the same quality or better.
If I wanted to also include vision and dental in my trip, where would be the best places to go? I trust Nomad Capitalists reply as Andrew and I have very similar standards; high quailty and safety for the best price. I'll be coming to KL in one month. Thanks!
Just curious Andrew, how much recourse do you have as a patient in Malaysia if there's a mis-diagnosis or negligence? Was just thinking that the insurances the doctors have to buy in litigation-happy US might be part of the reason healthcare there is so expensive.
Hopefully NutriGenomics and Medication tolerance/ screenings are done as well.. some of the most important tests nowadays !!! Incl. foodintolerance testings...😊🎉😁🤩🤭😏
Excellent video ! Excactly what Andrew keeps telling the world. This is real evidence. A video speaks a thousand word.
Thank you!

There's no dancing tiktok nurses, looks like they're all business there.
Much appreciation to you, Andrew, and your staff for sharing this extraordinary service as well as all the education you share.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Of course, you can't get this type of physical any longer in the US.
I just had my annual physical and besides the usual paperwork, I had to request any tests that I thought may be necessary (the doctor did not make a recommendation on this) and I had to ask if I needed to see a specialist for other stuff I have concerns with. The doctor took out his stethoscope and listened to my heart and my lungs as well as tested my reflexes with the little hammer. They also did blood work. "Everything is great"
Then the physical took a weird turn. I was then asked questions about the date I last changed the batteries in our smoke alarms and carbon dioxide alarms and how many fire extinguishers we have in our home. The doctor then moved on to discussing firearms safety and was curious if I had considered harming anyone in the past 3 months. Of course, COVID and flu vaccines were discussed and then they said that the state's database on me was not complete and asked about a lot of other things I thought were strange.
I may need to take a trip to KL to have this checkup done and schedule a few procedures while I am there.
I will be in KL, Malaysia in December and would like to do this medical tourism option. Sounds wonderful.
Hey Andrew , can you please do a video ranking the best healthcare you’ve gotten around the world ? I know Malaysia has been good but I’m curious about others .
Thank you for the info, Andrew.
Compelling. Thank you for sharing.
Th NHS UK 🇬🇧 is a total disaster and so it the private medical there . Asia has much more superior healthcare and cheaper . 👍 thanks for the great informative video
Good info. Good to know.
I didn't know the whole team is based in Malaysia. Hope you like the food here
They are not; we attended Nomad Capitalist Live together and offered them checkups before the big event. www.nomadcapitalist.com/live/
Now my Doctor in the U.S., tells me all the bad news. That is because the tests were not done sooner.
Prince Court is spot on, modern, inexpensive, and highly, highly competent staff.
Memories of my medical tourism to Tijuana, Mexico in 1998 for LASIK.
$1700 vs $5000 in U.S.
Many factors in the price difference, including the laser.
Only one laser was approved in the USA at the time, but three were approved in Canada and Japan.
Countries I trust to vet medical devices.
At the time, not only was capital required for the laser,
but the laser company required a royalty fee for each use.
I love this! Also congrats Andrew on 700000 subscribers!! 🎉👍
Thanks so much!!
I liked this video, well done.
Thanks!
Wow! You clearly have a "type." Nice looking office team you have there.
Meanwhile, I just spent $187 for a 10 minute consultation with a family physician here in the US. This country is a joke.
Wow! I’m Canadian. Unbelievable! Andrew, is there such a clinic in Mexico?
i live in Mexico and looked for this over and over with my Mexico family, you have to piece this together a blood lab. then a xray lab, then a caridoligst, then a uroglist, then a internest, ie after living in se asia b4 i knew what i was looking for
So no you can not get this package check up in Mexico
ps Mexico has world class medical but is becoming like the USA, insurance rules
In the USA staff tend to be total jerks at most hospitals. The ultrasound alone is $5k in America.
Andrew has interesting hiring habits. After you see it, it can't be unseen.
Nice but these basic tests, how about mammogram, pap-smear, PSA blood test(prostate), colonoscopy, etc ???
There is a list of procedures for these standard health check ups. If there is anything you want to add then you tell them and you pay additional. For my last checkup I asked for a couple of additional blood tests - small stuff. Previously I got an additional body scan to look for kidney stones. Any procedure you ask for will probably be much cheaper than in your home country.
@@martypoll Thank you.
For sure, in USA these basic tests would be at least 8K like stated in the vid, it's insane!!
Thanks for sharing
Awesome.. good info !!! 👍
Stop rubbing it in to us poor Canadians that have to put up with a broken system that we handsomely pay for and corrupt politicians live off. We don't even have a choice in this country.
Ironically, many people in the US are clamoring for the Canadian system because it's "free".
To be fair, this is private healthcare. The public, much like your national healthcare, is only RM1 for all these checkup and prescription, if any. We don't do any national healthcare insurance like you do, all it takes is our national identification card and no other maintenance payment. We are also not limited to seek medical attention from facilities based on the address used in the identification card. Stop rubbing in your face, you say? I'll see myself out 😂 (Good luck, though, fellow Commonwealth friend! 💪)
I got braces for just $32 in Argentina. Even got a vlog on our channel how I got it.
You somehow managed to bring the healthiest looking, young women to the hospital. Code Red, indeed! 😅
Amazing! Makes me an ordinary person want to flew over there to get treatment. Especially, for something like a hernia repair or similar. Is this care subsidized by their government? Have heard amazing stories about Panama and Thailand but never heard a first hand report on either place.
I am living in rural Thailand. Last week I went to the private hospital in Ubon Ratchathani about an hour from my house. I have medical insurance with a 40,000 baht ($1,100) deductible. I arrived at the hospital with no appointment. I was able to see a neurologist about 90 minutes later. I got an MRA (similar to an MRI) which took about an hour. Afterwards my Dr. Explained the results (I’m OK). I was done in time for lunch. The total cost was 15,100 baht, about $415. English speaking Dr. Excellent service & equipment. I’m from the San Francisco Bay Area. I could never have gotten this level of care, even with insurance, this easily, and at this low cost in the Bay Area.
This is typical of my health care experiences in Thailand. My typical cost of an emergency room visit - Dr’s care & pain killers - $75, again with no insurance. I’ve had similar full body checkups in Thailand for about $300.
Private healthcare in Malaysia is not subsidized by the government, but it is checked-and-balanced by the fact that it is competing with the government's RM1 healthcare (that's how much a Malaysian pay for these checkups AND 3 months of prescribed medicine if they were to do it from public facility) as well as a very active, litigious society. Most Malaysians using private healthcare facility do it under their insurance coverage, and insurance is notorious for questioning every cent billed. If there is any unreasonable price hike such as billing face mask beyond the market rate, the hospital will get a hefty fine, along with record with local authority (as well as the court, should the patient decide to take it there).
great work!!
Thanks a lot!
300 buks for all this is super cheap
Andrew, great info on the medical side. Do you have similar info on Dental? Which outfit would you or your team recommend? Thank you.
That’s pretty good.
WOW!!! Amazing! Thank you for the detailed testimonials!! Can you Recommend a Spa Dental “Museum” as well? Implants 🦷 ?
Andrew you cad ! I love how you have all attractive Slavic women as executives.
Slavics have great values and an amazing work ethic, great choice. I've been poking around that area looking for a secondary place and a primary partner 😉
Keep up the great content.
-Andrew
Seeing this and you start wondering why paying an arm & a leg for sub par service and treatment in the UK/ NHS....
Hope it helped.
This is cool
I'm in Slovenia. I'm traveling for 5 weeks starting from Cologne Germany to Balkan countries. I had to go to the emergency room yesterday, which was right next to my hotel. There was no waiting time. The doctor immediately identified my issue and gave me three prescriptions. The pharmacy was right next to it, and once again, there was no waiting time. I was able to get my medicines immediately. I paid 19 euros for the doctor's visit and around 20 euros for all my medicines. If I were in the United States, I know it would have been close to a $2,000 bill, as I have no medical insurance.
😲😲😲😲😲😲😲 Insane!!!
Next level content brother 🔥🔥
I did the same thing in Germany this summer it cost me about 450 € with the insurance probably covering a further 250 € and it took about 1,5 hours. It's not as cheap as Malaysia but I'm pretty confident it's the same quality or better.
always take your health seriously.
If I wanted to also include vision and dental in my trip, where would be the best places to go? I trust Nomad Capitalists reply as Andrew and I have very similar standards; high quailty and safety for the best price. I'll be coming to KL in one month. Thanks!
Just curious Andrew, how much recourse do you have as a patient in Malaysia if there's a mis-diagnosis or negligence? Was just thinking that the insurances the doctors have to buy in litigation-happy US might be part of the reason healthcare there is so expensive.
I hope there's a stemcell therapy in that hospital. in the Philippines it's so expensive.
Hopefully NutriGenomics and Medication tolerance/ screenings are done as well.. some of the most important tests nowadays !!! Incl. foodintolerance testings...😊🎉😁🤩🤭😏
Is your CFO married? I'd try my luck going around coffee shops in her city just to say hey I know you and ....
Where would you go for a dentist
Is Jovana single? I want her to be my wife 😂
I wish I could have a quick way to do tests... I need to use days of my time to do those here in Italy... uff
Do you see a resurgence in Medical Tourism post-covid?

I have waited for 6 month for a hearing test (
