March 24, 201313 yr A few years ago there was a clinic in Pattaya Naklua Rd not far from the roundabout. Any members know if its still there or has it moved. I tried to find it last week but no luck. This clinic only does blood test, Thanks in advance for any help.
March 24, 201313 yr I think this place has a branch in Naklua, but could be wrong. Member tropo goes to a lab in Naklua; you might PM him. http://lifecare.siam2web.com/?cid=1208968
March 25, 201313 yr Otherwise there is a place between tonys gym in south pattaya 3rd rd and the way that goes towards jomtien, on right hand, name was lifecare center IIRC
March 26, 201313 yr Do yourself a "favour" get it done at a hospital......they are the "experts" .... have all of the right equipment.....and proper hygene
March 26, 201313 yr I've just had a blood test at the Lifecare Laboratory on 3rd Road near the flyover. They were very good, professional, 15 blood tests for 500 baht. Much better than a hospital imo.

March 26, 201313 yr There aren't that many full blown labs around, mostly they are located in the hospitals - there's lots of people selling the tests and taking the samples but most use the same two or three labs for actual testing, pretty much the same scenario in most towns/cities. So, as long as the sample is taken cleanly and is stored/transported correctly/promptly, the only thing that's likely to change much at all is the price.
March 26, 201313 yr Do yourself a "favour" get it done at a hospital......they are the "experts" .... have all of the right equipment.....and proper hygene Yes because it is real hard to collect blood and send it off. You should really pay a premium at a hospital.
March 26, 201313 yr nonsense Good luck I happen to know what I am talkng about Not on this point you don't.
March 26, 201313 yr nonsense Good luck I happen to know what I am talkng about Not on this point you don't. Agreed, the guy has no knowledge. The labs just take the blood and as long as it is sterile its ok. Then they send it off to big labs like you said. Nott much can go wrong here those big labs do good work. Its also not that hard to take blood and have a sterile needle.

You should really pay a premium at a hospital. Lifecare Laboratory have all the latest equipment on site, some of the hospitals send there blood tests to them to do! As to Hospitals well Bangkok Pattaya do many of the tests in a room next to the emergency Dept and this has a lot to be desired for Hygiene, (dirty floors etc,) same in PIH and Pattaya Memorial do it in the hallway! And as for experts you are joking!! Its usually a nurse with absolutely no idea how to draw blood! Edited March 26, 201313 yr by Pdavies99

I doubt that much of your post is accurate, blood tests at the hospitals you mention are performed in laboratories and not in hallways et al. As for the lack of cleanliness and lack of knowledge of how to draw blood samples, you're statement are not credible or based on first hand experience.
March 26, 201313 yr I think the OP is asking about Pattaya Lab. Their website has all information, including a clear Google Map link. I've used them for years and give them 10/10 on all counts.

March 26, 201313 yr I have used Lifecare Laboratory Labs in South Pattaya and as the others have said, they have been excellent and not expensive. They will send the results by email if you wish, which can save you waiting around. What you don't get of course, which you do get at the hospital, is the advice from the doctor. Lifecare only provide you with the results, if you need to understand them in more depth, then you will need to visit a doctor. As a comparison of costs. I went to Pattaya Memorial, my local hospital, and had 3 regular tests carried out for 1800 baht. The next time, I had the same tests carried out, plus many others at Lifecare and they charged just 500 baht. They were all clear, or I would then have paid the extra to visit the doctor at the hospital.
March 26, 201313 yr Author Thank you one and all for you answers and advice. I think that might be the one Phil Conners. Cheers.

My response is very accurate as I have to get Blood tests every month, I have had over several years tests at all 3 Pattaya Hospitals and Pattaya Lab near Bali Hai Pier so please don't assume!
