Blood test

[CallumWK]

Can you go to a government hospital for a blood test including A1C, PSA or even better HCI?

Very interesting question 

In Australia we get blood tests free so I generally have one every 8 weeks 

But in Thailand recently I paid I think around 1400 baht 

Thankyou

I am pretty sure you can do that, and likely it will be cheap.

Or you do it in a private hospital, and depending on the hospital it will still not be expensive.

One difference it that in the government hospital you likely will wait for hours, and you better speak and read Thai.

Would be appreciated if someone could give me a clear answer on my question, instead of some guesses, which are mostly wrong as well

There is a clinic that does path tests MRT huay kwang. It's next to the Ganesha 'temple'. Get a battery of standard tests only b1300.

 

* Recommend you NOT go to huay kiew hospital in chinatown.

OK, I am not answering your direct question, but you can get blood tests done also at clinics. I use N-Health in Pattaya, they have decent prices and there is no charge for seeing a doctor. So if you know how to interpret the results, it is a good deal.

Obnoxious as usual.

 

Yes but you'd need to see a Dr first

I'm aware of the overpriced N-Health, and the much cheaper Lifecare lab, which is actually part of N-Health I believe.

But I find the Lifecare environment not really clean.

Yes, but why should they bother for someone so obnoxious?

I had every month a blood test, for over 10 years, at the Military Hospital in Nakhon Ratchasima.
The blood test was performed on orders from the doctor trough a "blood test sheet".
It included everything you asked for.
But:
- You needed to get an order from a doctor.
- The blood test was not free.
See enlosed document.

You cannot go into a government hospital and just demand a blood test. You have to consult a doctor there and the doctor has to order it.

 

Lower level hospitals (e.g. community hospitals) may have  limited lab facilities and nto be able to do the tests you mention.

 

Simplest thing to do is to just use an independent lab.

 

Where are you located?

So why bother asking then. Pathetic
