I am looking for the best public hospital in Phuket for an appointment with a gynecologist for my girlfiend !

Mission hospital is the best public one. Vachira is probably the worst.
I don't know of any other ones.

By "public hospital", I assume the OP is referring to government hospitals. This would include Patong, Thalang, Phuket and Vachira hospitals.

 

Mission Hospital is a private hospital, although a step down in terms of pricing and amenities from the BDMS-operated hospitals.

Yes, but strangely enough Mission is an option for the social security hospitals.

I had a bad experience in Patong Hospital when it was the old hospital. Had a nail rip my scalp. Needed a few stitches. The nurse seemed to have no idea.

 

Just 3 months ago I had a fall when working about the gardens. Hit the brick path, knocked myself out, blood gushing from eye brow. My wife was within sight and called the Patong ambulance (we in Patong). The ambulance came quickly, very professional, off the ER, again the best of treatment. 2 nurses and lady doctor. one side administering injection, other side nurse put in 5 stitches. I did not feel a thing, mind you I was still in shock.  Doctor advise skull x-ray so off there. All done and dusted in about 90 minutes. Cost less than 4,000 baht.  I now have full confidence in Patong ER.   

 

Edit - had to pay cash as public hospital not take BUPA. Made claim to BUPA and eventually got a full reimbursement.

Have you checked the International Hospital. These days the same management as BP but I find IH just a bit cheaper.

Are you sure it is the same management? I know it is the same ownership, but afaik the management as different, as is their pricing.

Semantics.

Siriroj is owned by the BDMS company and managed by their board,

In -hospital management is separate from BHP.

The board would make pricing decisions, probably want to keep it as a slightly cheaper alternative to the flagship BHP.

Thank you for your enquiry to Siriroj International Hospital.

 

1. Physical Examination: around 1,000 THB 

 

2. Anti-HIV: 650 THB

 

3. Blood test for VDRL: 210 THB

5. Anti-HBs: 880 THB 

 

6. Anti-HCV: 690 THB

 

7. Chlamydia Trachomatis IgM : 1,320 THB

 

8. Herpes Simplex Virus PCR: 2,860 THB

 

In addition to the above, she will be charged a few hundred Baht for medical supplies. Also note that there is a hospital fee of 120 THB per visit.

Do you get the results in that 10 minutes?

BHP processes most tests in less than an hour and the doctors can then decide on any action required while you're still there.

I usually have a coffee while waiting. No need to go back later.

Nope. Results i pick up 2-3 days later. 5-10 minutes i need for walk inside, go directly to laboratory, let them take my blood and pay at the cashier, back to the car.

I only do regular blood checks there for which i need no doctor.

 

If need a doctor i also always go to BHP.

Yes, for normal checkups that's all you need. 

You could even go to a pathology clinic.

I had a complete check up (blood, urine, ECG, BP, chest xray plus weight, height and waist measurement check.) at Vachira 2 days ago (Monday). I was expecting a long boring day but was pleasantly surprised to find that the check up department has been relocated to the new wing with everything in the one place. All modern equipment and good English spoken. In and out within 2 hours. Total cost 4100 baht.
