I have noticed that their are almost as many clinics around Pattaya as their are dentist. I want to get the regular blood test series, cholesterol, blood sugar, etc. Can anyone recommend a dependable clinic to have this work done? I'm not looking for the cheapest and don't mind paying more for the best.

I think most clinics send the blood out to be tested, so it dosent really matter which clinic you go to. I pay about a thousand Baht to get quite a comprehensive test done, and get the results the next day, or sometimes the same day.

Why fool around? Go to Lifecare Lab, same day service, emailed results if you wish, packages, cheap. Price list on the website:

Before the sneering starts, I had several of their test results confirmed at Bumrungrad. Lifecare's good 'nuff.

thanks for sharing.

I have used Pattaya clinic laboratory for 5 years to have all my regular blood tests ,he e mails you the results in the evening ,nice guy and speaks english very well.678/1 naklua road ,next to the krungthai bank 081 863 2868

as JSixpack says Lifecare are just fine. B500 for 15 tests and results (with the "norms") always presented in a booklet - very professional. Used them for several years and local hospitals/clinics use their service too.

There's also Advanced Life Lab in a small plaza just north of Soi 6, Pattaya Beach, between Second Road and Beach. It's across from Rasputin. I've used them for three years now. I've crosschecked their results a couple of times with Pattaya Medical Clinic on Third Road, which uses (I think) Lifecare Lab. The results seemed to match up.
