Ohyesuare Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 I received email confirmation of the vaccination date change and a copy of my updated booking appointment slip. They also added: For your information, currently there will be no allocation of COVID-19 vaccination in our hospital for the AstraZeneca in October 2021 onwards. Hence, we encourage you to complete your vaccination as per your new schedule. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very unprofessional! Yep, I have to agree with you there. The woman on the phone wouldn't even let me ask my question, as soon as I mentioned 'vaccine' that was it, she must have stuffed some wax plus in her ears as she didn't want to know what my problem was and just kept saying that no, we cannot, cannot. Subtext: sod off, you stupid farang! I was actually phoning to make an appointment to see the dermatologist I've been using there for the last 12 years, Dr. Anna, but I was told that she's decided to only work on one day this entire month. Really, combined with their nasty, racist attempt to make sure that farangs were the last to register for Moderna a few months ago, the only reason I'm still using them is that PIH and Memorial seem to be just as corrupt and money-grubbing.

Kaoboi Bebobp Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 I think I got lucky on the date change because of my emailed request to move up my date. So, through sheer happenstance, they replied with the news of the date changes for everyone. But they have sent mixed messages on when the hospital will stop conducting second jabs. I'd advise everybody to confirm their dates and venues by phone or email. By the way, I did not get a date notification via Mor Prom, my record being set up by Phyathai. Of course, it's been very frustrating using another phone with Google Translate to read my Mor Prom info on my primary phone. Overall, though, I certainly agree Phyathai 2 Hospital is very professional and very contactable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really ironic how they treat Faranags at BHP considering that they bill themselves as a "premiere international hospital" LOL! I've used them several times in the past for minor things like flu shots, check-ups, etc, and every single time, simply getting somebody who had even basic fluency in English was impossible. Worse, the ones who did speak English would pretend to not understand a question if it was something they preferred not to discuss (like their policy on Covid vaccinations for forangs. I have to say though that their doctors are top notch....excellent medical knowledge and skills, compassionate, and comfortably fluent in English. If there is any questions of how disliked BHP staff and administrators are by Farangs, one only needs to glance at their facebook page to see all of the negative / angry comments made by Farnags, especially back in July when BHP did not live up to their word about Covid registration. By contrast, when I finally gave up on them and went into Bangkok for my Covid vaccinations at PhyaThai for jab one, and then to MedPark for jab two (because they were willing to allow me to have it only several weeks later instead of having to wait 12 weeks), their treatment of Farangs was amazing! Very friendly and efficient, many of the staff spoke English better than a native speaker like me! And most important of all, they were good listeners! If you had a question they were willing to carefully and patiently listen to you and then respond appropriately and in an incredibly helpful way. I mean, I was truly impressed at BOTH hospitals. Definitely first-class all the way! It may be a bit of a pain having to drive into Bangkok from Pattaya, but well worth it IMO!

Kaoboi Bebobp Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 To get to (Carpark) Building A, floor 9: Enter directly from the main street into Building B with the Starbucks in the lobby and where you first got vetted for jab 1. Look up and follow the sign to Bldg A. In short, immediately turn left in front of the Starbucks area, walk down a really nondescript hallway and turn right. I believe this is where you can see a small interior driveway between buildings. Traffic left to right. Cross here and wait in line for the really puny elevators (3 of them) in Bldg A up to floor 9. A staffer will be there to guide traffic. After you finally reach floor 9, bear left and into a waiting area. Ignore and keep on going to a doorway on the right. Enter another waiting area with all the action. Register here and sit. Get your pen out for another Q&A check box paper. Things moved fairly fast. If I'm slightly off, there's always someone to guide you there. Other than the great staff, P2 Hospital facilities are overall too compact and claustrophobic for my liking. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't drive here. But a tip: Parking floors are in the middle floors between G and 9 (top floor). You're actually better to get on the lifts at ground level because they're so tiny (4-5 persons max) and only three of them, no one from a parking floor has room to get on. Seen this many times.

Popular Post Guderian Posted September 28, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 28, 2021 I just returned from having the second AZ jab at Phyathai2 hospital in Bangkok. As before, it was all quick and easy, though as mentioned already here the location has changed. Just go to the Starbucks at the hospital main entrance and there are some people there who will give you a number and ask you to sit down. After a short wait you're taken off in groups of 20 with someone to show you where to go and what to do every step of the way, so no need to worry. Even better, they've dispensed with the blood pressure check! After the 30 minute post-vaccination observation period (which was actually closer to 20 minutes), you're given the official Thai certificate of Covid-19 vaccination. I had my yeloow international vaccine passport with me too, and they filled it in and stamped it without any problem, though I was the only person who seemed to be bothering with that. Don't worry about the time of your appointment, as with the first dose it's a case of first come, first served. For obvious reasons, they don't want lots of people hanging around waiting for their allotted time. All in all, I'm quite content with the result. It was also nice to see the area there around the Victory Monument coming back to life, it was like a graveyard two months ago, very sad to witness. Now many of the small shops and eateries are open again, along with some street vendors and even a busker on a saxophone just outside the hospital. Far more traffic around, too, it's starting to feel like we're going somewhere now, and aren't just stuck in Covid limbo any more. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad to see you getting your second jab Jingthing. I am actually happy to be in the current system, which has worked well & linked us to Mor Phrom & a usable online vaccine certificate/future vaccine passport. I really do not object to the occasional trip to BKK for a jab, and if the official system offers a PTY alternative that's fine, but I am not going outside the system.

But given all their other vaccine/covid/economic issues Thailand faces it may not be a high priority for the authorities. As we both know, it was chaotic earlier with endless false leads, so to get into a working - albeit imperfect - system is for me the key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shortstop2 Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 Went to Phyathai 2 in Bangkok with a buddy for our second Astra jabs. He was scheduled for Tuesday and me for Wednesday. I went along with him today (Tuesday) with my passport and they let me get jabbed today too. No resistance whatsoever. They didn't take my blood pressure either. Afterward they give a proof of vaccination with dates and lot number. My friend had a yellow vaccination book and you can get that filled out in the room next to where you get your original receipt. My vaccination date was move dup 3 weeks so check your SMS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
