Why Choose Thailand for Travel and Treatment ?
Thailand is the Land of Smiles that welcomes visitors into a tropical paradise, a country known for its warm weather and beautiful beaches. This welcoming attitude is a key part of Thailand's standard of patient care. On top of this, the country is continuously updating its medical facilities and talents to stay on top of international medical standards. Whether exploring the breathtaking beaches of Phuket or strolling through the glistening mega shopping malls in Bangkok, travelers will find the cost of daily living is far lower than that of North America.
Medical Facilities in Thailand
There are nearly 400 hospitals in Thailand, one of which being the largest private hospital in Asia. Bumrungrad International Hospital, Samitivej Hospital, BNH Hospital and the Bangkok Hospital Group are the most frequented large private institutions in Bangkok, and they provide top-quality care, 5-star treatment and departments dedicated to overseas visitors. Bangkok Hospital Group is a network of leading international hospitals found throughout Thailand, and Bangkok Hospital Phuket on Thailand's most popular southern beach destination is on par with its northern counterparts. An astounding 200 doctors working at Bumrungrad International hospital are U.S. board certified. All private hospitals that cater to medical tourists have English speaking doctors and staff members.
Bangkok Hospitals
There is a vast range of Bangkok hospitals, from government-run places that cater mainly to locals, to some of the best facilities in the world that cater primarily to moneyed Asians and medical tourists from the West. These rank among the best hospitals anywhere and have large, private rooms with top facilities and many extras.
The de facto top hospital in Bangkok, and Thailand, is the internationally renowned Bumrungrad International Hospital. It is the undisputed king of hospitals here and rivals similar entities worldwide. Although relatively expensive (based on local pricings), procedures carried out here can be anywhere between 30 and 80 percent cheaper than in the US.
The Bangkok General brand of hospitals, which are also present in other Thai cities, are on par with Bumrungrad, yet are slightly cheaper. Samitivej Srinakarin is another highly rated Bangkok hospital, with orthopaedic procedures high on the list here. All city hospitals can perform all major procedures.
