Indonesian Medical Personnel and Health Technology Capable of Competing

The quality of medical personnel and health technology currently available in Indonesia is capable of competing with other medical tourism destinations. All patient healthcare needs can actually be handled domestically with high standards, supported by competent medical professionals.

This was stated by the Chief Commercial Officer (CCO) of Bervijaya Hospital, Hestiningsih, in Jakarta on Thursday (11/6). “We have doctors with the same capacity and capability, or even better, and our technology is equally competitive,” said Hesti.

One of the highlighted services is the BraveHeart Center, a cardiac service centre established to address the high rate of cardiovascular disease in Indonesia. Heart disease remains the leading cause of death in the country, necessitating services capable of providing comprehensive care ranging from prevention to rehabilitation.

The BraveHeart Center offers comprehensive services including prevention, early detection, cardiac intervention, cardiac surgery, and cardiovascular rehabilitation. All services are supported by a multidisciplinary team using the latest technology to ensure patients receive fast, accurate, and integrated treatment.

A key advantage of this service is minimally invasive cardiac surgery (MICS). This technique allows procedures to be performed through smaller incisions compared to conventional surgery, resulting in minimal post-operative pain, shorter hospital stays, faster recovery, and a quicker return to daily activities for patients.

The BraveHeart Center is strengthened by leading cardiovascular specialist, Yamin, who possesses expertise as a consultant in cardiac intervention and arrhythmia. He explained that the increasing cases of heart disease in productive age groups are influenced by various risk factors such as smoking, hypertension, diabetes, high cholesterol, obesity, physical inactivity, and stress. Therefore, the public is urged to adopt a healthy lifestyle and undergo regular health check-ups.

“Moving forward, BraveHeart Center aims to become a trusted, premier cardiac service centre with international standards through the development of modern cardiovascular services, technological innovation, and care focused on patient safety and quality of life,” he said.
