    The Mrs and I just went to the dental department in Chaiyaphum Hospital a month or so ago. Have 6 or so dentists working and gave them a good and long clean (as no work needed to be done). Like with almost every government dealing in Chaiyaphum if you know anyone who works at the place you need to go then they will just book your number the night before so you can just go in and get it done without waiting too long. Was free for me (under Mrs benefits), but I think the invoice said around 500 baht from memory.

    Chaiyaphum hospital does have private rooms with a/c. When I had my appendix taken out there I was given a private room, a/c, TV, private bathroom, stocked fridge etc. The Mrs also was provided the same with both our children. Sure the conditions are not up to first world standards, but who would really expect them to be in rural areas in a developing country.  They are more than adequate though.

    The issue isn't the conditions, it is more the waiting times, doctors and nurses at Chaiyaphum Hospital. You really have to find the good ones and stick with them, and know people to bypass waiting times. A Thai friend and I were both diagnosed with pneumonia by doctors at Chaiyaphum (a year apart). We both went to Khon Kaen Hospital as we weren't getting better. After extensive tests and appointments with infectious specialists, oncologists and rheumatologists, we were both funnily enough diagnosed with rickettsia at Khon Kaen and treated appropriately. 

    Some of the nurses at Chaiyaphum Hospital even said that sometimes farang miss home so much that symptoms develop in their head. The Mrs replied with, does that explain his CT scan that shows his liver and spleen have doubled in size? Then silence. 

    Chaiyaphum used to have 2 great paediatrician cardiologists (one has just moved to ICU Bangkok Hospital Pattaya). One remains and is a lecturer. Both have Western thinking and love lecturing your Thai family. They work/ed days and volunteered their time at the government hospital but we see them at ChaiyaphumRam. ChaiyaphumRam also has one good cardiologists who I now use as my GP (used to use the paediatrician as a 'family' doctor) - although I think he is studying overseas now. 

    You soon learn to pick your doctors in Chaiyaphum and not to worry too much about conditions. 

    thank you

    And even with the information from the other posts, I have difficulties to find the location.

    What I understood is "30 km from Chaiyaphum city".

    But I am uncertain about this village "Ban Nong Sadaeng".

     

    To which direction from Chaiyaphum city?

    What is the name of the district/amphoe?

    Chaiyaphum is quite big and has 16 districts (124 sub-districts (tambon) and 1393 villages) as seen here under "Administrative divisions":

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaiyaphum_Province

    Can you name your district and or subdistrict/tambon?

    drive East from chaiyaphum city.  Sub Dist is haui bong  village is Nong Sabeang. go East from village.we are 10 min away..our farm has big brick fence and lots solar panels  2 g/s dogs.   blue

    true will not be showing club rugby league now only state of origin.and of couse rugby from around the world.:post-4641-1156693976:

  11. sub dist is Haui Bong.  village is Nong Sabeang. 

     

    when you drive out of chaiyaphum city head East. the lertnimitra hotel and a small private hospital are on your left side. the bus station and street for Fire station are on your right.

     

    at the Nong Sabeang keep going East on a dirt road[no name]  after about 15 min you will drive over a small river. about 5 min later you will see a T intersection on your left . turn left there 4 farm on left the one with brick fence is my place.

    or e/mail me and ile give you my m/number..              blue

     

  12. thank you swissie.:smile:  when i asked my new wife to leave the farm and all her family and moved to aust i promised her one day we would return. i am now 67 and retired so back we came. do i miss sydney,my brother,2 growen up children, mates of couse i do but my wife did it for me.she left a family behind when she came with me.

     

    we could have rented in Bangkok or Chaiyaphum city but i promised to bring her home to the farm and her family and this i have done. it has been hard for me a big change for me  no electricity so i got solar panels.but i love all of her family and the farm life.  i live here now and one day i will die here... good night blue
