There is no denying that the best hospital in Medan has to be the Gleneagles Hospital at Jl. Listrik. Supposedly, it is a franchise from Singapore Gleneagles Hospital, but frankly, I doubt it. But again, you have no other choice as the hospital has one of the best facilities and is the cleanest – an important factor. Nevertheless, do not expect much professionalism from the staff and whatever medicine is given to you, please double check to make sure that it is of the right prescription and the expiry date is the most important factor. I gave birth to my second child here and we were given an expired milk to my horror – I discovered it when I asked to feed my son personally in our own room and told the nurse to bring up the milk to my room and as a precaution, I looked at the date of expiration – its 2 months overdate!
If you happen to have small child, two of the best paediatrician is Prof. Syaria Pasaribu and Dr. Chairul Yoel, whom both stationed at Gleneagles Hospital. Nevertheless, any serious health problem, you may prefer to travel out to Singapore or Malaysia for a more through check up.
