1Malaysia Clinic well received by the public
KUALA LUMPUR: The 1Malaysia Clinic (K1M), established seven years ago, is among healthcare services which has been lauded by the public in terms of accessibility, operation hours and fee.
K1M, which operates from 10 am to 10 pm daily, including on public holidays and weekends, with citizens charged RM1 for each visit and free for senior citizens, provides convenience to the people, especially the less fortunate and those staying far from the city.
According to a pensioner, Mohd Said Omar, 64, although there are Health Clinics and polyclinics in the vicinity of his residence in Taman Megah Ria, Masai, Johor, he prefers going to the K1M Taman Megah Ria because of its fast service and comfortable environment.
“For senior citizens like me, fast and comfortable service will definitely be the option, furthermore, the treatment is free of charge,” he told Bernama.
Mohd Said said he began seeking treatment for his skin problem at K1M over the past year and found many locals, especially fellow senior citizens doing the same.
Puteri Nur Balqis Mydin, 21, who lives at Kenanga Apartment, Bukit Beruntung, Hulu Selangor, said since K1M was opened in her residential area, she did not have to worry about time as the clinic was only a few minutes walk away and for only RM1 per visit.
