Questions about neurosurgical assessment for Selangor patients
Does seeing a neurosurgeon mean I need surgery?
No. A neurosurgical consultation does not automatically mean surgery is required. Many patients are assessed and managed without surgery through observation, medication, physiotherapy, or further investigation. Surgery is considered only when clinically appropriate based on diagnosis, severity, and response to other treatment.
Does Dr Yee see patients from Selangor?
Yes. Patients from across Selangor may request assessment at KPJ Damansara Specialist Hospital, Petaling Jaya. Dr Yee does not have a separate clinic elsewhere in Selangor.
Can I come just to review my MRI or CT scan?
Yes. Imaging should be interpreted alongside clinical history and neurological examination.
What should I bring to consultation?
Bring previous MRI or CT films and reports, any X-rays, referral letters if available, current medication list, and prior operation notes if you have had previous brain or spine surgery. Bring actual imaging films rather than just the written report for a more detailed review.
