JAKARTA - For years, going abroad for treatment has often been considered the best option by some Indonesian people. Starting from the assumption of better doctor quality, more advanced technology, to more comfortable services.
However, this condition has now changed a lot. According to Hospital Director Eka Hospital MT Haryono- dr. Sheirly Novan Indra, MARS, there are at least four strong reasons why the Indonesian people no longer need to go abroad for treatment.
1. The quality of Indonesian doctors is getting betterOne of the main reasons why people choose to go abroad is the assumption that the quality of doctors in Indonesia is still inferior. In fact, Indonesia currently has many doctors, specialists, to medical professors who are the best sons and daughters of the nation.
Hospitals in the country, not a few also have doctors who are also professors and the best specialists to practice.
"Experts in this medicine are also generally supported by a professional work system and adequate facilities, so that the quality of medical services is not inferior to foreign hospitals," said dr. Sheirly at the Grand Opening of Eka Hospital MT Haryono, Jakarta, Friday, January 23, 2026.
2. Modern and complete medical technologyApart from human resources, technology is also often the reason why people seek treatment abroad. Now, hospitals in Indonesia have been equipped with the most advanced and cutting-edge medical technology, equivalent to international standards.
The utilization of this technology aims to enable doctors to provide more accurate diagnoses, more appropriate actions, and optimal services for patients. With the support of the best technology, patients no longer have to go abroad to get high-quality medical services.
3. More communicative and integrated medical servicesAnother complaint that is often heard is that doctors in Indonesia are considered less communicative than doctors abroad. To answer this challenge, hospitals in Indonesia have begun to implement the concept of interdisciplinary services, such as Eka Interdisciplinary Services.
Through this concept, doctors from various specialties work together in clinical meetings to discuss complex cases. This approach not only improves the quality of medical decisions, but also makes patients get a more thorough, clear, and transparent explanation of their health condition.
4. Hospital comfort that prioritizes patientsGoing to the hospital today is not always just to overcome a disease, but also for check-ups, screenings, and disease prevention. Therefore, patient comfort is an important factor.
Modern hospitals in Indonesia are now designed with consideration for comfort, ranging from building design, the atmosphere of treatment rooms, to supporting facilities.
"For patients who need more than one day of examination or come from out of town, the hospital provides a comfortable environment to stay and undergo the monitoring process calmly," he said.
