Hi,

Does anyone know of good (or great) cardiologists and cardiology departments in Bangkok?  I'm not looking for Bumrungrad luxury , just good, solid professionals.  That being said, I don't want money to be a hindrance to quality care.  I have been wanting to get checked and treated for some time now and I'm looking for someone who knows what they are doing and I can trust.  Many thanks.

 

Outside of a government hospital there are no "departmental" norms for practice and everything depends on the individual doctor; entirely different care can be had from cardiologists at the same private hospital. 

 

I highly recommend his doctor at Bangkok Christian Hospital:

US trained, very good and also very nice. President of the Thai Heart Society.

Sadly no longer up to date. I think he moved to Ramkamhang Hospital and has quite a minimal schedule.

Any other recommended cardiologists in Bumrungrad and/or MedPark?
