uhuh Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 anyone can recommend a female gynecologist? for routine problems like vaginosis, pap smear, maybe colposcopy... gf has been to Samitivej, it was expensive but not satisfying (they didn't do the basic tests and left her untreated, could not communicate with the patient either (although gf is Thai uni grad), gf got the impression they are just keen on doing expensive tests) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phuturatica Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 and how will having a female gynecologist change this ? are female gyne's cheaper in Thailand or something ? Some women generally feel more comfortable having a female gynecologist. I would certainly prefer a woman looking at my bits down there rather than a male gynecologist.

Sheryl Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 There are female gyns in every hospital (inc. Samitivej). I suspect what your gf ran into was class prejudice which is quite widespread in Thailand. Try this doctor at St Louis: http://www.saintlouis.or.th/clinic/doctor.php?dr_id=643 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK granted...but how does this affect the price ?....as this appears to be the OP's main concern Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strange, I take a female doctor checking my heavy equipment any day over a male doctor, the latter is badly unnatural 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
