Frequently asked questions

Questions about coverage and assessment

What areas does Dr Yee serve?

Dr Yee consults at KPJ Damansara Specialist Hospital, Petaling Jaya, and sees patients from across Selangor, Kuala Lumpur, Negeri Sembilan (Seremban, Nilai), Southern Perak (Ipoh, Teluk Intan, Tanjung Malim), and Pahang (Kuantan, Temerloh, Bentong). There is no restriction on which state or area a patient is from.

Is a referral required?

A referral is not required. Patients may request a non-emergency appointment directly through WhatsApp or the online appointment form. A referral letter is welcome but not mandatory.

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.

Can I come just to review my MRI or CT?

Yes. Imaging should always be interpreted alongside clinical history and neurological examination. A consultation provides that clinical correlation.

When is a neurological symptom an emergency?

Attend the nearest Emergency Department immediately for: sudden weakness of one arm or leg, sudden facial drooping or slurred speech, sudden severe headache (worst ever experienced), first-ever seizure, loss of bladder or bowel control, saddle numbness, or rapidly worsening limb weakness. Do not wait for a clinic appointment.
