Advice Please: Competent Nurse or Clinic


Recommended Posts

Posted

Can anybody recommend a (preferably English speaking) competent nurse or clinic in or near Pattaya. I need to have an injection administered in the near future with a medication that I have with me that was prescribed by my doctor in England.

The medication comes in a pack and consists of 2 compounds that need to be mixed together and then administered by injection into a buttock muscle. There are instructions written in English included in the pack.

Any advise would be gratefully received.

I suspect you will have to have such shot approved by an MD before a nurse will inject something they have no knowledge or control over.  At least I would hope so.

I suggest going to one of the hospitals, probably Bangkok International is your best bet.  Many of the nurses in local clinics are actually qualified "Nurse Assistants", and although they can carry out simple procedures, I wouldn't trust them to carry out one that is unusual,  or a more complicated procedure than a bog standard injection.  Even then, I wouldn't trust them to do it properly every time.
