Jessi Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSixpack Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris2004 Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 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. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chiang mai Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 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.

robblok Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 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. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robblok Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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, 2013 by Pdavies99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

Phil Conners Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dsfbrit Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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!
