Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to what patients ask us most. Anything specific to your own case is best answered in person.

How do I book a consultation with Dr Kueh?

Call the clinic on +60 82-464 101 during clinic hours, message us on WhatsApp, or complete the consultation request form. Our team will call you back to confirm a date and time.

Where is the clinic located?

No. 98, 1st Floor, Premier 101 Commercial Centre, Jalan Tun Jugah, 93350 Kuching, Sarawak. Parking is available on site. See the map on our contact page.

Do I need a referral from another doctor?

No. You can book directly. If you already have a referral letter, imaging, or notes from a previous operation, please bring them — they help Dr Kueh assess your case accurately and may save you repeating tests.

What happens at the first consultation?

Dr Kueh will take your medical history, examine the area of concern, and set out the options available to you — including their risks, limitations, recovery time and cost.

You are under no obligation to proceed. Nothing is booked on the day, and you are encouraged to take the written plan home and think it over.

Where will my surgery be performed?

Minor procedures under local anaesthetic are performed at the clinic. Anything requiring general anaesthesia or an inpatient stay is performed at an accredited private hospital where Dr Kueh holds visiting privileges — KPJ Kuching Specialist Hospital, Normah Medical Specialist Centre, or Borneo Medical Centre.

How much will it cost?

Cost depends on the procedure, the type of anaesthesia, how long you stay in hospital, and your individual anatomy. For that reason it cannot be quoted honestly over the phone or from a website.

After your consultation you will receive a written estimate covering surgeon, anaesthetist and facility fees, so there are no surprises.

How long is recovery?

It varies enormously. Some in-clinic treatments have no meaningful downtime; major body contouring surgery can mean several weeks off work and several months before swelling fully settles and the final result is visible.

Dr Kueh will give you a realistic timeline for your specific procedure, including when you can drive, return to work, and exercise again.

Will my insurance cover it?

Reconstructive surgery carried out for a medical reason — after trauma, burns, or cancer, for example — is often covered. Purely cosmetic surgery generally is not.

Our team can provide the documentation your insurer needs so you can confirm your coverage before committing to anything.

What languages are spoken at the clinic?

Consultations can be held in English, Mandarin, Hakka or Bahasa Malaysia.

Can I see before and after photographs?

Malaysian regulations on medical advertising do not permit clinics to publish before and after photographs or patient testimonials on a public website. Where relevant, clinical examples can be discussed with you privately during your consultation.

Is there an age requirement?

Patients under 18 require the consent of a parent or legal guardian, who must attend the consultation. For certain procedures Dr Kueh may recommend waiting until growth is complete, and will explain why.

What if I have a complication after surgery?

You will be given clear post-operative instructions and a direct contact for the clinic. Follow-up appointments are part of your treatment, not an added cost. In a genuine emergency, go straight to the nearest hospital emergency department or call 999.

Still have a question? Call +60 82-464 101 or send us a message — we are happy to help before you commit to an appointment.
