Would like information about one or more recommended public hospitals in Bangkok or/and with a semi-private department that still accepts foreigners for treatment, (arm/shoulder surgery). I am aware of longer waiting times and more bureaucracy than at private hospitals, but as a pensioner I have plenty of time. Thanks in advance.

All government hospitals in Bangkok (and elsewhere) will treat foreigners. You have to pay full cost of course. 

 

I suggest for an ortho issue you use Chulalongkorn which has an after hours semi-private channel.

 

Before I suggest a doctor, are you certain your problem is shoulder/arm and not cervical spine? 

 

Have you already  had an MRI of cervical spine? Already bern diagnosed (if so, with what?)

 

Makes a difference as to which doctor to request.

Thank you for replying. No cervical spine MRI or no daily back/neck pain except morning stiffness which I put on age 👴but I have a broken thumb and a minimal shoulder fracture (have CD`s of both with x-ray images)
