Reviews:
1. “We came with a leg injury after a minor motorbike accident. Two wounds needed stitching. I was placed on a couch, and a young doctor from Korea arrived. The wait time was about 40 minutes. We were officially registered, and the approximate cost was provided (between 1 and 1.5 million). Everything was done professionally—they treated the wounds and even gave painkillers and antibiotics. The total came to 1,250,000 IDR for everything.”
2. “This is a classic case of having the equipment but forgetting to hire qualified staff. I came in with a complaint about a big toe joint injury. The ‘doctor’ referred me for an MRI with contrast. For my injury, contrast wasn’t necessary, which shows incompetence. Fine, I went ahead and did it with contrast (15 million IDR), and they did it incorrectly!”
3. “I had a very serious ear abscess. The emergency department admitted me quickly and provided urgent care. After that, I was fortunate to receive treatment from Dr. Lely Rahayu, who prescribed a treatment plan, and my ear started recovering quickly. The entire team of doctors and medical staff was attentive and tactful. I’m very grateful for their professionalism!”

1. “I just got a flu shot at SOS Medika. Over the past 25 years, including 20 years in Bali, I’ve always turned to SOS Medika when needed. This is because I’ve always been fully satisfied with their excellent and fast service, both medical and administrative. After reading many reviews about overpriced clinics, I confirmed my choice. Another strong reason to choose SOS Medika is that they know the best specialists in Bali if a referral is needed.”
2. “For Indonesia, this is top-tier care. Professional, clean, competent, and efficient. I came in, consulted with a real doctor, took some tests, and was given a prescription right away.”
3. “Dr. Anna, the dentist, was excellent. The dental clinic is modern and well-equipped.”
4. “Fast, precise, and accurate actions! Their staff speaks fluent English. The doctor and nurses listen to patients carefully, especially during procedures, and remember their concerns, creating a safe and comfortable space for the examination.”

Patient Reviews
1. “I was told the consultation would cost IDR 300,000, but I ended up being charged IDR 2,100,000 for consultation and treatment of a bruised toe. Additional costs included bandaging the toe and providing antibiotics and other medications. I believe a charge of IDR 1,000,000 would have been reasonable, but IDR 2,100,000 was excessive for what was done. On the positive side, there was no delay in treatment.”
2. “Caring and attentive staff with a comprehensive approach to addressing patient concerns. Highly recommend. We visited for a digestive issue.”
3. “Attentive medical care and experienced doctors. Be cautious about medication costs. I was offered three medications for IDR 1,500,000, which was five times the price at a pharmacy down the road and ten times more than at a local pharmacy. It’s best to get a prescription here and purchase medications elsewhere.”
