PPMMUU Posted May 4, 2023 Share Posted May 4, 2023 It seems that you have visited the private section of Chulalongkorn Hospital. There is no doctor fee in the public hospital system of Thailand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I knew they were going to try that on, I'd have gone to Samitivej around the corner from me in Phrom Phong. I don't mind paying for a specialist's expertise but a bloody mri is an mri, right? In the end, I went to www.mrithailand.com Sorted for the princely sum of 8k I don't think Sirirat is cheap, even for Thais. I've been there a few times but Im covered under my wife's civil servant medical benefits scheme. It's a very busy hospital, and will only go there if I get antoher kidney stone. I use local government hospitals for other things - all very cheap and don't pay for the meds. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chongalulu Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 Only ever had relatively minor incidents and always at a government hospital,very cheap ,just a few hundred baht . Worst thing was a cracked metatarsal in Khanom where doctor consultation ,X ray and a cast was 1300 baht and all done in a couple of hours. I paid and got out quickly before in my mind they realised they’d undercharged! Only other experience was a much more complex operation for the missus by a very experienced surgeon at Yanee private hospital Bangkok involving 3 nights in a nice private room and follow up consultations. 80k baht . Again I thought that perfectly reasonable vs UK . Never really experienced any inordinate waiting times as I might in A & E in UK. So pretty satisfied in all ???? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
