Dr Wittaya from Bangkok hospital is a lovely old Gent and a very experienced Orthopedic Doctor

Has worked in New York for many years and speaks fluent English

But as asual with that place the prices are high.. Not too bad if you just want his expert opinion once though

Good luck

There is a clinic across the road from Hua Hin Hospital where a very specialised bone doctor runs an evening clinic at Thai prices - everybody welcome, no appointment necessary. I believe he runs a clinic a Bangkok Hospital (at Bangkok Hospital prices if you prefer) a couple of days each week. Building with white writing on green background.

Mrs BB and a couple of other friends have used him, and say he is very good. Probably the guy benmo is recommending.

Hua Hin hospital itself has an orthopedic clinic on weekday evenings from 5pm. Sometimes it's very busy, other times very quiet.

This is as it was last year, though covid-19 may have caused changes at the hospital.

Dr. Wittaya at Bkk hospital is also recommended by me. Great to speak with a Doc here whose natural (American) English is a bonus. Top man.

No, but with medication, the cost has never exceeded 1,000฿.

Sorry but I would to know more about what this guy actually does....

Is he a hands on Doctor so to speak?

Does he treat you physically(like an Osteopath does) or just diagnose your condition from your symptoms and give you pills?

Any info greatly appreciated thanks

He is a specialist used by several good hospitals. What he does will depend on his diagnosis.
