Following the lifting of Covid-19 lockdown measures, there has been a remarkable surge in Middle East patients opting to seek medical treatment in Thailand. Traditionally, Qatari individuals seeking high-quality medical care would travel to hospitals in the USA, France, UK, or South Korea. However, Thailand has emerged as an incredibly popular destination for medical treatment among Qataris due to its reputation as a Medical Hub and the exceptional hospitality of Thai doctors.

Popular Post lordgrinz Posted August 10, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 10, 2023 Medical when I first came here in 2014 was cheap, not so anymore. Also, if they want quality tourist to come here, they may wish to do something about safety on the streets, sidewalks, and crosswalks. Unless they are hoping tourist get maimed while travelling and can be forced into paying the overinflated medical costs? 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BritScot Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 I would have sung their praise in 2004 as I found it very efficient, cheap and very good but then jump to 2012 after very bad private health care several times each time being referred to government hospital which I found far better and the doctors more knowledgeable, the service I/we got was also very good and price very reasonable (private room). 100% support government hospitals because that's where the top doctors are ie the cream who have passed in the top % on merit and not on family and money. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardColeman Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 If a couple have to spend £2,000 to get here then medical tourism is just a luxury of the small qty of rich and well off - my own opinion they would do better making soi 6 10 miles long to attract tourism !
