Straight into the blood test unit. I wish I was that lucky.
Ground floor to the left of the cashiers, before the exit. There's usually a lot of creams on sale outside the door. Just walk in, tell them what you want or tick it on the form, pay the fee and hey presto it's all over.
Thank you. It's nice to see an intelligent post once in a while, that makes sense and helpful. I do think that that was the problem that I did not go there straight as I didn't know the drill.

For 10k you can find some nice places either condo with an at least 6 month contract or an apartment. Don't get discouraged by the posts regarding to it is going to be boring. Sure Cm is nothing compared to Bkk but give it a try and soon you will see if it's the right place for you or not.

If you want prompt, CM is not the place for you.
I didn't say that the 360 baht fee was expensive. I would be happy to pay more if I was seen promptly.I've received service at Ram three times in the past week and generally have been satisfied. I used to work as a nurse and the nurses there seem quite competent.
Each time I've gone to the information desk to check in there was no waiting and both people I've dealt with spoke perfect English.
I didn't see people chatting and screwing around. Every time I went it was without an appointment and I feel it's a pretty good deal to walk in cold off the street and be seen
promptly. Try that at a clinic in the US. A 60baht ( $2 ) to cover nursing service and 300baht ( $10 ) to be seen by a doctor is expensive? <deleted>?
Can you enlighten me which place is?
-
Sure you can. There are many drivers offering their services online. Just look it up.

This Chiang Mai Ram hospital always leaves me laughing until I cry. Every time I go there I am amazed at the weirdness I need to face as a patient. Two years ago I had to stay there for a couple of dayz as i had dengue. So I was lucky enough to experience first hand, what it's like to be treated there. Then this year, just a few days ago I went there to do a regular blood test for mineral content and also for HIV, Justin Case.
Before I went there to do the test I did some research on it here on TV and I agreed with the advice that its best to go to the hospital because its quicker and cheaper as the clinics send the blood to the hospital anyway since they dont have the equipment to do the test.
So I go there, go to information, then you are asked to go here go there sit here sit over there..I was cool with it as one would expect in a thai hospital. So after going through the general weirdness they make me talk to 5 different folks as noone understands that I need the blood checked for mineral content as well. But it's just the language barrier, we are used to that too. At least I am because I only speak some very basic thai. So after an hour or so they check my weight. Then she looks at me and says okay sir you dont have fever. How she knew it by staring at me I have no idea. Then they ask me to swait outside once again. After 20min another nurse walks up to me and asks what do I want? What do I wait for? I tell her. She says ok then disappears. Meanwhile its important to mention that the hospital was empty. Nurses laughing everyone was having some kind of fun but no intention to take my blood. So after a while an english speaking doctor shows up and asks me what I want. I feel like I am in heaven as those nurses drive me crazy with their incompetence. I explained it to the doc and he gets it..I am in, man. Besides I had a thai friend with me but it didnt help much, i swear everybody seemed to be high that day. People walk around in slow motion, little chitchats and laughs but nothing happens. So after talking to the doctor, soon they stick the needle in me and I have an hour to do whatever before getting the results. An hour later I am there to get it, needless to say they still have no idea what's going on. I am asked to sit here sit there go over there and another half an hour passes without anything happening. Then finally I get to see the same doc I talked to before. That's something. But I need to wait as someone is in with him. When that patient leaves I am waiting for the nurse to call my name. Nothing happens. A bit later I ask her can I go in? She looks at me smiling: I forgot to tell you you can go in. I go in I come out the result is negative the mineral content is all good. Now I need to pay. The process takes an additional 20min despite the fact that there are only a few patients there. I see them laughing and giving a darn about what's happening and at this point I wanna go through the glass window and show them what's up. Then they call me: I pay 2700thb for a simple test..well actually two. The doc fee is 300. The nurse fee is 60 lol. Those irritating nurses charge me 60 baht so I could watch them laughing and talking instead of working. When I left I thought I actually feel for the owner of the establishment and the patients. It's a private hospital and I personally go there to get better service but they always fail to deliver it. And the owner, for him it's business but the incompetent staff make his business much worse than it actually could be.
Still to me it's just too funny. When i go there i feel like, I just can't do this again. I do believe it should be one of Thailand's attractions. I mean watching these creatures running around like ants, but everything they do is counterproductive.
But of course, i know there are hard working people as well and my respect goes to them. -
Now they got a new Nigerian coke connect.

If I were going to have a driver, I'd want a hottie in a cute uniform and hat...
And fishnet stockings.

What these red tshirts want? Nobody cares about them anyway, why ridiculing themselves on a regular basis.

Does he really thinks that they aren't going to find him?

Make it global for what? Even the local buyers are more interested in foreign cosmetic stuff. I hear it a lot from thai girls that they are rather into japanese cosmetics.
When I ve first heard that shit, I almost messed my pants laughing. I mean everybody knows including them that japanese cosmetics are not any better than their thai counterparts but because thai women fell in love with japanese women a while ago..now they want their cosmetics.

Yes it is definitely possible. I always hold it while sitting coz there is no way I am going to let it touch the bowl.
But its just a toilet. Several studies have proven that there is much more bacteria on the average cellphone than on the toilet. You put it down everywhere, pick it up with dirty hands etc..

Sure they don'tSure they do.
I see. Okay. Well I only said, sure they do because I know for sure that they do.

I am always astonished how gullible people are. He gives millions to some low life slut because she says she needs to be compensated.

Thank God the man was not able to kill himself afterwards. Now he is going to have all kinds of sexual intercourses in prison.

I would improve the infrastructure and rebuild the roads while I am at it. Also, i would put politicians into the driver's seat that can actually lead instead of total <removed> ups.
Ah and I would provide free courses for people who say one thing and mean another, and just phony in general..that were aimed at changing their behavior and make them decent.

They constantly come up with new ideas regarding to making money in shady ways and ripping off people. And the cops are always involved.
Though I wonder, how they pick the victim.

Lol his street name was Rambo. Another tough girl is down.

About time. Besides why they never talk about the retards, who finance the ongoing war in the south.

The above posts are correct. This is most likely a BIOS defect, so upgrading it could solve the problem in my opinion.
On the other hand, you also have problems when the Windows is running already..which makes it clear that your Windows might need a reinstall as it doesnt work correctly.

And a lot of people actually believe this stuff. I remember watching an interview with a black guy who did the same but got caught. He said it happened to him several times that he couldn't stop laughing because even after doing it many times, he was still astonished how stupid people are.

Yeah, Madoff the grandpa has no competition that's for sure! Making almost 65 billion USD disappear, that's a skilled old man. Too bad he didn't use it for good.
Can't do without Cmai Ram.

Ohh you guys got the impression, okay. Well, I dont get any impressions. I happen to know myself and If I was screwy I would know about it. If I gave them a reason to want to get rid of me, I would have noticed it.
I stated my opinion about the work ethic there which I experienced first hand. But I really appreciate the helpful input. I am going to like it.
