gerryBScot Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 I want to get an echocardiogram done in Bangkok to send to a doctor I know in Oz. What's the form in getting this done? Is it a simple walk in, ask and wait or what? I am happy to see a consultant cardiologist here but I really want my own doctor to check this out without having to travel to Oz. Any pointers would be much appreciated. I was thinking of St Louis, any other suggestions? Many thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheryl Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 You'll need to see a cardiologist first to get the test ordered. There is a very good one at Bangkok Christian Hospital, Prof. Taworn. You'll have to call the hospital for his hours as their website is now only in Thai. Tel : 0-2625-9000, 0-2235-1000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is not a helpful comment. If you believe otherwise then say why and how the test can be done/obtaind without the need to see a Cardiologist.
