Hospital service<\/p>\n
One really does not expect to be cheated by one of Jakarta's
\nbetter hospitals -- but I was.<\/p>\n
The other day I went to RS Abdi Waluyo for an X-ray of my
\narthritic left shoulder, to send to my surgeon in the UK -- also
\nfor a check-up X-ray on my left hip, upon which he had performed
\na replacement operation in 1990.<\/p>\n
I inquired the cost and was told Rp 20,000 per shot, so I went
\nahead. The young woman who did the job seemed fairly unsure of
\nwhat she was doing, so not surprisingly, having looked at the
\nresults she said that she would like to take two further shots.<\/p>\n
When It came to paying, I paid my Rp 80,000 for what I thought
\nwas for four shots. I was then handed a sealed envelope
\ncontaining, I expected, the four shots. However, when I got home
\nto have a look, I found only two pictures, and those of such poor
\nquality that I doubt if my surgeon in Britain will be much the
\nwiser after he has seen them. I am waiting to hear. Not a very
\ncreditable performance by RS Abdi Waluyo, was it?<\/p>\n
