Sincere apologies for the late reply. Sorry, I don't remember the surgeons name, but she was great and reassuring.

Yes it was, Zarrilo Travana or something like that.

Udomhouse bar, just been open for a few months, great reviews on google, near Wild Hog Saloon so there is now a choice for that area. They certainly show a variety of sport at customers requests.

Not sure of your sense of humour, or should I say, lack of it. I can assure you that my sense of sight is 100% better than it was.

Princ Hospital in Lamphun, less than 30 minute drive from Chiang Mai city.

Many thanks to Wandr for this post, I made an appointment a fortnight ago and saw the specialist, she was extremely reassuring, as I have a phobia about eyes, and said that she could tell that a local anesthetic would be suffice, she was very kind and understanding, unlike the specialist at Maharaj Nakorn who told me abruptley to get over my phobia. The head of the hospital and his daughter spoke to me and told me that their aim is to make surgery for Thais and foreigners more affordable without constraints. I had my surgery on Monday afternoon, the staff, from all different fields, were welcoming and friendly, the hospital is spotless, my private room was on par with Ram and Bangkok hospital. Bangkok and Ram quoted me 120,000 baht. Maharaj Nakorn quoted me 80,000 baht Princ hospital Lamphun total cost 16,500. I would highly recommend this hospital for any medical issues, I'll certainly be using their service again even though it's 15 miles where I live.
