Sorry for the late response, I just saw your recommendations. Thank you so so much for the info, I appreciate it so much! 🙏🙏🙏

He is moving here permanently. The internist back home agreed to still have virtual appointments with him so he will have continuation of care, but I definitely want to find him someone here too.

Yeah it's definitely been quite stressful because I want to make sure he gets good care here. Thanks for the kind words and the advice. 🙂

Thank you for linking this info. My dad does have a specific set of regular lab tests ordered by his doctors from before, so I will take a look and compare them with what's in this package. So this would be an option for labs, any idea if the cardiologists there are good? Thank you.

Sorry I feel so silly, completely slipped my mind! We are in Bangkok, near the Chidlom BTS station. He had a triple bypass a few years ago after having a heart attack. The cause of the heart attack was internal stomach bleeding that was undiscovered for a few days. While recovering from the surgery, he contracted multiple infections in the ICU, and had heart failure and kidney failure, which was when he started being treated by the internist overseas. He does not currently have heart failure and he has no kidney problems now but he does have arrhythmia, and they closely monitor the heart failure symptoms. He has had high blood pressure for a long time, it resulted in a stroke 20 something years ago but he recovered with no long term issues from that. Thank you!

Hi All, I need some recommendations for good doctors for my dad. He has several pre-existing conditions including high blood pressure and some heart problems. Back in his home country, he would see a cardiologist twice a year and an internist every 3-4 months as a regular check up. Any referrals would be so greatly appreciated. If you have any further info on estimated ranges of costs, that would also be so very helpful. Thank you so much for your time.
