Didn't expect to meet the most recognizable guy on Samui here. Saw you several times last year! Do you go yourself to Taskin Hospital as well? I will go there next week on Monday. Thanks again.

I got this advice several times now and was hoping it works. I took "Nasonex" for like 3 months but it didn't help much. Since around 28 years I have a "crocked" nose ( an accident in young age ) although I don't mind the unusual aesthetics of the nose I would love to fix the air flow. One of the ENT doctors explained to me very thoroughly with a camera and visual confirmation what was wrong within my nose. So there is definitely something wrong, it doesn't necessarily mean I need a surgery.

Thank you for your reply. I will probably consult someone in Surat Thani then. If possible, I'd like to avoid Bangkok. Already figured I should not do this surgery on Samui. I will schedule an appointment with "Taksin Hospital" in Surat Thani. Thanks!

Hello, I was advised to post here. I live on Samui and went to Bangkok for check-ups, since I have breathing problems since years. After visiting 2 hospitals and approaching 2 ENT doctors, they concluded I need a "septoplasty and turbinate reduction" surgery. After getting the receiving the offer, I asked several questions, none of these questions they were able to answer. For example, there is listed the following: "General medical expense (medicine, medical equipment and supplies)" This topic is already 60% of the whole cost. After some research, I found out they basically overcharge on everything, which you can't proof. I don't blame them, there is enough competition to not go there. I don't want to discuss the price they were asking, because you would probably accuse me of lying, and rightfully so, since it's an insane price. Can you recommend me an ENT specialist on or near Samui, perhaps even a hospital where this procedure can be done? If possible, I would like not to fly around too much.
