lostinisaan Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Dear OP, I've tried to attach a PDF file, but it seems that the file was too big. Please check on this webpage and I think you, or the patient will be in good hands there. Best of luck.

SantiSuk Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 (edited) Almost certainly: "Dr Pongsathon Soopa-atakon from Ubon Ratchathani Cancer Centre's radiotherapy department said ....." extract from an article about cancer care in Ubon/SiSaket/Yaso/Mukdahan/Amnat (http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/topic/666379-isaan-network-hailed-as-model-for-faster-cancer-treatment/) There was also a posting by a guy on TV 6-12 months ago about him having treatment at URCCH so it would be worth googling for that btw - I worked out that Sunphassiti Hospital referred to in the article is probably Sapphasit Hospital Edited July 27, 2014 by SantiSuk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sezzo Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Thanks guys for the info, need to decide to finish my treatment in Australia or come home. Cheers i have been as a visitor to the cancer hospital in Ubon a few times over the years and I don't think I would like to be there as a patient. I cant comment on their procedures or standards of care but being a government hospital the place seems to be always teeming with relatives and other hangers on which is very offputting. I have also been to Sappasit hospital quite a few times visiting friends who are "imprisoned" there and there is no way that I could spend any time there recovering from an op or treatment. The swarm of people hanging around would drive me crazy. On the occasions that I have needed medical care in Thailand it has mostly been in private hospitals where you can get some personal space. Having said all that, I see that you are still in Australia and if it was me I would continue with the treatment before you return. Just my two cents worth.
