uptheos Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 By sparkling u don't mean all the unfinished or poorly done paint work and waiting times are the longest I experienced in a Thai hospital Maybe they have to wait for the Dr. to come from Ram, Rajavej, McCormick or Sriphat. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueyeshk Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 That's what I thought so better judge and comment after they are really up and running Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueyeshk Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Fact is there is as of now no dermatology nor dental department and so it is not your one stop hospital. At least for me I don't see their benefits - time will tell maybe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cardinalblue Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 A hospital system doesn't have to have a dental dept to be successful.... CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uptheos Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 A hospital system doesn't have to have a dental dept to be successful.... CB No but it does need a lot of doctors, which BH seem to be lacking at present or they haven't updated their website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueyeshk Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 actually they are not forced to have any special unit but I guess we are talking here about a top noch approach of a private hospital competing in the lucrative health market and so they do require a one stop solution will all kinds of specialist not limited to basic needs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharchen Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 Just went there today for an executive physical. Great experience with great staff/equipment and 30% less than Bumrungrad. Also got a flu shot. Could I have gotten a better value at Ram? Maybe, but I'm happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elektrified Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 My partner got a brochure from their marketing people when she was out the other day. 6,900 THB for a standard room and 14K for a VIP room! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also got a flu shot. Could I have gotten a better value at Ram? Maybe, but I'm happy. 30% less than Bumrungrad can still be a lot higher than any other hospital in Chiang Mai. If money is no object then great. But most people like to know the ball park price. They know they are paying out of sight costs at Bumrungrad. But still cheaper than Western. I had a hip replacement at the hospital across from the Holiday Inn total private room included 183,000 baht. Bumrungrad web site 450,000 baht.

Actually, if you check that link, 630 is for Thai food. Japanese/Western/European food as they call it is 1200 per day.

My all in private room with nursing and meals for the cheaper private room at Rajavej was 1,800 a day. I believe the expensive one was 2,200 a day. I got to admit it the food wasn't bad. How ever it was a plain Jane Breakfast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
