I have heard many reasons why people go to Pattaya,going there to get your blood checked is a new one!

I just wonder what you will come up with next.

Maybe try a brain scan?

I agree with the OP, the cost of a doctors visit has increased hugely in the past three years. Plus each specialist has certain tests they feel obliged to perform which double their consultation fee. I saw a chest doctor last week, 700 of his fee, 400 for the x-ray, 250 to read the x-ray, 700 for the endoscope up the nose test. A simple consult turned out to be 2,400 by the time I was done, five years ago it would have been 1,000 max..

So yet another doctor has said nothing wrong with you but you insist on seeing more and complaining about the cost for tests you asked for but don't need

 

...I think there's a word for that?

I can't believe the cost of seeing a Doctor here in Pattaya 

One (farang) doctor I saw here ,I was in his room 3 minutes before he said have a blood test

Total cost 2400 baht ($110 Australian dollars)

 

The "farang"doctor you saw was very likely a BM here and he`s peed off about the useless tripe you come up with on this forum...revenge is sweet 😂

     No, doctors are cheap, at least compared to America.  I still remember going in, years ago, to get a mole removed.  Went to a dermatology clinic, rather than the hospital, since it was a minor procedure.  Was in the examination room about 5 minutes and the doctor zapped the mole.  Got the bill.  $500!   How could it cost so much???  There was a long list of charges, only one of which I still remember:  $50 for sitting on the examination table while the doctor zapped the mole.  Not joking.  If I had known, I would have stood.

I could of seen a (paid) $40  doctor in Australia 3 times for that price or a free Medicare doctor.

 

Remember you were castigating and complaining about those who prefer to use the bus Pattaya/Bangkok. Now you see why, they had had medical treatment here.  One day you will understand,,,,, maybe..😂
