Killeth Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 (edited) Hi, so my father is living in Chumphon and recently got very sick from osteoarthritis. He needs an artificial hip bone, and apparently none of the nearby hospitals are equipped to do this. Our only other option is Bangkok, but since it would be an expensive and tiring venture, seeing as he has no place to live there (and he is basically broke). I want to ask if there are any other hospitals in the South or generally in Thailand that would do the job for less money than Chulalongkorn, Siriraj and Thammasat hospital in Bangkok. He has no insurance and we can't afford medivac. Edited July 21, 2019 by Killeth 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Killeth Posted July 21, 2019 Author Share Posted July 21, 2019 @faraday did you get a two sided replacement? What kind of material? Any kind of insurance involved? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faraday Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 Only had one hip replacement - having both done at the same time would, in my opinion, be a difficult recovery. It was an uncemented hip. I didn't use insurance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
