Dr. Anna is the best. Have been seeing him for many years. I think semi-retired now, she's quite old. As someone mentioned, I think it's Wednesdays only now. But well worth the wait. She successfully treated an advanced BCC on my ear a few years ago. Dr. Waraporn as PIH also excellent.

Thai Officials Announce "Innovative" Expat Health Measure
Travis179 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Dr. Anthony Fauci wrote in February 2020 that store-bought face masks would not be very effective at protecting against the COVID-19 pandemic and advised a traveler not to wear one. https://www.newsweek.com/fauci-said-masks-not-really-effective-keeping-out-virus-email-reveals-1596703 -
Have you considered a CAC scan? A few years back my cholesterol was sky high (mostly LDL, the rest was in the normal range). My PCP was aggressively pushing statins, but I was concerned about the potential side effects. I subsequently got the scan in Pattaya, reviewed the results with the attending cardiologist, who informed me my score was zero. He told me to forget about the medication, and just continue what I was doing (ketovore diet). After that, my PCP didn't mention it again. Not medical advice of course, I'm not a doc, just something for you to consider.

Thai woman attacked and robbed in Bangkok’s Sukhumvit (Video)
Travis179 replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
A Thai woman issued a warning after two thieves attacked her with a knife and robbed her in broad daylight on Soi Sukhumvit 81 in Bangkok. Witnesses and motorists passing by the scene refused to help. -
Thanks for the recommendation, will check them out. They will scan and forward all mail received? Mainly interested in a physical address for SS documents and contact. I don't want to rely on friends, or have them reading my financial documents.

Google Says Thai Tourism Shows Clear Signs of Recovery

I just grabbed a $1,500 R/T fare from SFO on China Air. Leaving next month. -
Definitely worth it, but pricey. At least it was in the US, I don't know about Thailand. I got an upper right side molar implant, to replace a fractured tooth that was pulled. Opted for the implant vs a bridge. That was 4 years ago, very happy with it today, no issues. Would definitely repeat if needed.

Excellent phone. I used my S7 during my 3 months in Thailand last year. The camera is first rate, better than most DSLR's. I shot lots of priceless, crystal clear HD video. Bought a SIM card at Tuk Com for local calls. Also have the S9 +. Even better.

Thailand, the most beautiful girls in the world.

Definitely true of the females in my US city. Most I wouldn't touch with a 10' pole! -

Thailand Pass Is Up And Running
Travis179 replied to ubonjoe's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
I'm arriving unvaccinated, I assume I go straight to my ASQ for my 10 days? Or do I still have to spend 1 night in an SHA awaiting PCR results? -

The COE system is closed now? I had a pending COE that I procrastinated on; I just needed to upload my flight itinerary. Guess I'm SOL now. -
In my area of CA, I paid $235 for a PCR test (same day results)! And before I returned to the US, 5500 baht (about $180) for the same test at PIH! So $415 extra added to my holiday just for testing...and then there's the insurance. As I mentioned in another thread, check with the airline you are using. Some include complimentary Covid insurance as part of the airfare. JAL does this, 31 days of coverage from your date of departure. I spoke with their rep, they said they would provide a certificate for Thai immigration. I believe Qatar Air does as well. I was unaware of this my last visit.

Looks similar to the existing app? I used this during my April - July visit. Not once did anyone ask to see it, including airport immigration. And I never received any notifications. Re the photo, that's standard for any visa / passport pic (no cap, glasses, etc.). I downloaded the app on my iPad (it kept crashing on my smartphone), and left it on all day in my room (I was using it all the time anyways, but never took it outside). Agree with your other comments though.
