October 12, 201510 yr can anyone recommend a hospital or clinic in bangkok with pediatric physio specialists. We have a child who needs some regular physio we have tried a couple of places, incl bumrungrad, and not found anything satisfactory as yet. (it doesnt seem to be a particularly high skilled occupation in Thailand from my observation ) Would ideally like to find someone western trained, familiar with modern techniques and with reasonable level of English.
October 12, 201510 yr I doubt you will find what you are seeking in Thailand. Physiotherapy is not a well developed profession in Thailand and Western Educated Paediatric Physios will be rarer than hens teeth.
October 12, 201510 yr Yes, it is a very weak area in Thai medicine. Best bet is Samitivej Children's Hospital which has a peds rehabilitation dept. Sorry I can't suggest a specific doctor. https://www.samitivejhospitals.com/en/smichcenters/pediatric-rehabilitation-clinic/
October 13, 201510 yr Author yes, thanks for the replys, Samitivej was on the list and we will now give it a try. Its a little odd that physiotherapy sevices seem to be so limited in Thailand (even in supposed world class hospitals like bumrungrad) but thats been our experience as well.
February 12, 20179 yr @worldchild: have you found already any good physiotherapist for children in bangkok? I do have also 7 yrs old son who need physiotherapy regularly. We plan to move to Bangkok in the next couple months.
