Please advise if you have any experience with urologists in Thailand. Is Bumrungrat Hospital still considered the tops in Thailand for in-patient surgery?

A friend of mine went to a urologist at Bumrungrad a couple of weeks ago to discuss prostate surgery. The doc advised against it and prescribed some meds instead. My friend was very impressed with the doctor and the work he did. I can get the name if you like.

After an incorrect diagnosis of enlarged prostate from a urologist at Bumrunrad, I then got a correct diagnosis of the problem from Dr Viroj Chodchoy. He seems pretty good.

Similar story to my friend. Came to Thailand to have prostate surgery recommended by a urologist in the States. Viroj said surgery was not necessary and instead prescribed some medication which seems to be working.

Urology is one department at Bumrungrad that I hear good things about. For urology I would recommend Bumrungrad highly.

This does not go the same for every department though.

I'm sure Bumrugrad has a good urology department... I can reccomend another doc from Samitivet who also has a good reputation. Just pulled out his name card, Dr. Thanoo Choovichian. Another option just to make your choice harder.

Choices are always nice. For something serious I would visit more than one doctor anyway. 2 heads are better than 1. No doctor can be right 100% of the time so 2 doctors gives you better odds (unless it is just a routine visit).

Dr. Chairoj Varongchayakul at Bangkok General Hospital, 2 Soi Soonvijai 7, New petchburi Road Bkk 10320. Tel: 02310 3009.

Excellent man, good english,tells you exactly where you stand.

Hello,

PLEASE REFER TO //website removed//......My 23 year old son died there for suspicious reasons which are fully detailed on this website.

A reading of the details of what happened to my son and the hospital's subsequent response (or complete lack of it) will more than provide the answer you need.

jim,

Didn't get pass the first page on the site but i get the drift from your post. The first page contains some useful information on what questions to ask at any hospital you're at.

Sorry for your loss. My condolences to you and your family.

For anyone out there... What are the implications of registering on the site if you're in Thailand? tks.

Dear Friend,

If I don't tell you about Dr. Viroj Chodchoy then for me this will be great unfair.

I am under his treatment from last 1 year and I made an unbeliveable Progress.

Really he is a great Doctor , Don't think on it and go to him blindly.

Regards/Rasel

I had surgery with Dr Viroj in January. I found out afterwards that he is quite famous in Thailand.

My results were excellent. His bedside manner is excellent as well.
