Hua Hin hospital prices and service

[buksida]

A relation had an unfortunate visit to Hua Hin hospital recently however all was well in the end. I was so impressed with the building, facilities, staff and costs I thought I'd post something about it.

They were rushed into ER and had a full range of tests following an asthma type attack and breathing difficulties. Stayed over night in a private room with separate guests room, flatscreen TV, and all brand new amenities. The costs including all doctors consultations, medication, lab analysis, nursing fees, room and meals came to a mere 4,500 baht. They even issued a bill and medical certificate in English so that it could be claimed back on the insurance.

A similar trip to San Paolo would have cost around ten times that so Hua Hin hospital is highly recommended should you be unfortunate enough to require it.

I went in for a non-emergency and found out that if you go as a farang alone, they will treat you in the ER straight away instead of making you wait hours with the Thai masses to see a doctor. The girls at the front desk speak good English and got me into the ER for a checkup and x-ray within minutes. I kind of felt bad as there must have been a hundred Thais waiting to see a doctor and it seems they moved me to the head of the queue!

The same thing happened to me too when I was there last December.

Yes, but you were having to pay more than 30 baht........business is business.

With that said, my wife went as a private patient at about 09h00 and after not having been seen to by 14h00 she got into the car and went to Petcharat.
I went to Hua-Hin hospital last year with a lung infection and was treated immediately. At least us farangs get special treatment sometimes...

I had to take my son to this hospital, palputations (he's ok caused by heat and lack of fluid intake). Whent in at approx 01.00am saw a doctor within 10 mins had tests and ECG and given 3 types of drugs for a 7 day course, back out much happier and heathier all within 1 hour. Cost 520baht!!!
Thanks to a Thai lady who I know who met us there after I called her (at 1 am) to help with any translation, who also then called her husband to take us back home after we was finished.
