"The doctor recommended surgery, he said he would be injected with oil. I was afraid, that's why I haven't seen a doctor for a year," said Tjong Soei Lim.

After being examined, it is known that his blood pressure and cholesterol are quite high, he said that he rarely consumes drugs.

Similarly, Lie Kam Fon (82), Senada, also likes to have his health checked at the Healthy Car. He has complaints of back pain, nausea, and gout.

After doing an examination at the Healthy Car, he got several drugs from the doctor, including cholesterol drugs, gout drugs, and stomach acid drugs.

“It's great to be able to get treatment at Car Sehat, especially since it's still the Chinese New Year. Moreover, the medicine from the practicing doctor has run out," said Lie Kam Fon.
