Does Dr Yee have a spine clinic in Seremban?
No. Consultation takes place at KPJ Damansara Specialist Hospital, Petaling Jaya. Patients from Seremban and Negeri Sembilan are welcome to request an appointment there.
Does a slipped disc always need surgery?

What is endoscopic spine surgery?
Endoscopic spine surgery is a minimally invasive approach using small incisions and a camera system to access and treat spinal pathology. Not all spine conditions are suitable; suitability depends on the specific diagnosis, anatomy, and clinical presentation.
Can I get a second opinion before surgery?
Yes. You are welcome to request a second neurosurgical opinion. Bring your MRI or CT films and reports, previous specialist letters, and any previous operation notes.
When is a spine symptom an emergency?
Attend the nearest Emergency Department immediately for new or rapidly worsening limb weakness, loss of bladder or bowel control, saddle numbness, or both legs becoming weak or numb simultaneously.
