new geriatric hospital

[Topsipp]

Does anyone have the exact address or telephone number for the new Geriatric Hospital? I have been unable to find anything about it online except for a few posts on Thai Visa

[northernjohn]

Heading towards Hang Dong from the airport mall you will pass a Tesco Lotus. Keep going and you will come to a spot in the road where they have removed all the trees in the center of the road and it looks like blocked out a U turn. It is on the left hand side of the road right across the street from Dr Morgan's office.

Did you actually read the "few posts" on Thaivisa which you mention? They contain, among other information, the telephone numbers and location of the hospital. Maybe better to read the information which is already on Thaivisa before posting to ask for the same information...

[Topsipp]

Northern John, thanks for the information much appreciated.

Neilrob, what is the purpose of you unhelpful comments?

[DogNo1]

At least he said more than, "Google it" which is what you should have done. We old-timers have seen hundreds, or maybe thousands, of posts asking the same questions with answers in the threads. Search is a powerful tool!

My post is not "unhelpful". On the contrary, my post is helpful if you would only follow it. You will find a great deal of very useful information in the threads, without having it all repeated here. Please search and read the posts and you will find out what I mean.

The phone numbers are: Phone number is 053 920 605 or 053 920 666.

The outpatient Dept opens at 7am for labs and x-rays, physicians are there 8am-8pm (closing for lunch 12-1pm) There is also a good rehab. dept--you must have a referral from a CMU doctor though (session is B400). There is a sleep lab too (but about a one month waiting list) Good parking available with 2 lots in the back of the hospital. No emergency room--if you come with an emergency, you will be taken to Maharaj (they have an ambulance standing by at all times though.)

I spent a couple of days there and found good service at a low price.

At last, a helpful post.

It's in Thai and they haven't updated it recently, but it does show a photo of the building, a map and phone number. Everyone I know who has used the facility has been very pleased.

Isn't there a Geriatric Hospital over on the east side of the moat, with a sign on it that says "Mad Dog"?

[Sparkles]

I visited there months ago,got the list of Drs/ Specialist, and posted that there was already a facebook page. Was told that a web site in Thai and English was in the works.

This is the problem with multiple threads about the same place.I did suggest to the mods that the various threads be combined.

Our Doctor Morgan has referred people there,with success,and its a great option especially for those south of the city.

or north of age 80.

Topsipp,

I have not been a sufficiently great contributor to presume to welcome you, but welcome anyway!

What I'm trying to remind myself all the time is what Neilrob put rather bluntly; lots of information, fully developed, is available by using the search function of this forum. I just recently, for example, reviewed choices for dentistry services. Didn't have to ask the question, for which - had I started a new thread - not a few members (old timers young and old) would have chastised me. And yes, often closely phrased queries on Google or other search engines may pay with specifics.

Anyway, if you know the location of Airport Mall and go SSW on 108 (Hang Dong Rd.) past the Lotus/Tesco (big signs), you'll soon discover a tall building on the left. Lately they have mounted huge signs on it (visible coming north as well) with that 'geriatric' word. *Actually, latest information is that they're accepting folks over 50 yrs/age until their patients multiply.

By the way, a "pinned" subject above on our forum subject listings will reveal suggested medical resources.

Nancy, my sentiments entirely, thank for your input

CMX thanks for the welcome and your input but I am curious to know why members, old timers or newbies feel they have the right to "chastise" anyone. This is an open forum of equals is it not?

Apparently not in the minds of some people.

It is a forum set up to pass information on as well as experience. Such as BarnicaleBob has done.

Besides there was one topic when a poster referred him to an already existing post on the same thing. It had over 1,400 posts on it.

Welcome to Thai Visa.
