Sanook Thai Caption: You did it again Naen!

 

Sanook reported on the arrest of a Thai woman - found wearing Sirirat hospital garb - who has multiple cases of being a fake doctor behind her.

 

Her name is Natthachanan Phitakchaikorn or more simply Naen. She was arrested by officers of the Consumer Protection Crime Suppression Division.

She has been busted in 13 cases for similar offences and most recently came out of jail last August. 

 

On this occasion she opened a clinic in Bang Na and asked real doctors to apply for jobs there.

 

She put her own name on their application documents and used these to work at various clinics.

 

The media said that she was "mai khet" - meaning she had not learned her lesson.

One might suggest extending her next stay.

I have to question why this person, who obviously has some serious Mental Health issues,  is not being confined for the safety of the Public.

Allowed to walk about free 13 times. Its only a matter of time before something serious happens 

Wow ! Amazing Thailand

How is it possible that a non doctor can open a clinic and do it.. Is there no institution that register clinics, no chamber of commerce that give permission.???? nothing so everyone can do as he like as long as he/she is Thai????

I wonder where her skills and knowledge rank compared with real Thai doctors, who more often than not have very questionable qualifications as well. Maybe she just didn't have the money to buy a degree.

What's up Doc ?

Catch me if you can !!
