Within Pattaya itself:

 

Bang Lamung Hospital

Pattaya City Jospital (but dual pricing = can be as expensive as some Provate Hospitals)

 

In Chonburi town:

 

Chonburi Regional Hospital - large tertiary level facility. Has specialists. No dual pricing. For anything at all major or specialized this and not the 2 hospitals above is best

 

Anothet option many favor is the Queen Sirikit Naval Hospital in Sattahip. Small size, has some specialists but not every day.

 

Best capacities are at Chonburi. Even cardiac surgery there.

So nothing compatible as Bangkok ?  I'm thinking about price to see a doctor and price of medication prescribed

Pattaya City soi Bukhow or Banglamung Hospital

forget Pattaya City hospital, it's public only for people registered to the Thai healthcare system.

 

private hospital pricing for all other people.

 

the only public hospital I know of is Banglamung hospital.

I think the next closest one is either Sriracha or Queen Sirikit in Sattahip.

Go to a medical clinic instead of a hospital?

You are aware that most medical clinics are single person beauty centric or questionable in Thailand, but probably OK for a cold or minor cut - most people go directly to hospital for direct treatment by specialists where testing and many doctors are available.

PCH is used by foreigners not just Thais.

He means that pricing for foreigners is private hospital-like.

 

We are having some linguustic confusion. To North Americans "public hospital" (or school) means government run.

Same for British.  'Public' means not private when refering to hospitals

A government hospital is called in Thai "hospital government".

 

A government hospital can also be called a public hospital, same meaning. 

 

Some posters appatently took public hospital to mean open to the general public, as opposed to restricted to certain groups.
