Medical & Dental Care on Phuket:
Hospitals, Doctors, Dentists, Medicine and More

Only in Bangkok could you find better medical care than on Phuket.  While Phuket provides good quality care, Bangkok is home to Bumrungrad Hospital and Bangkok Hospital - both world class medical centers. 

Bumrungrad is said to be the best hospital in Asia and you will see people from around the world seeking treatment there.

On the island -  Bangkok Phuket Hospital (BPH) and Phuket International Hospital both offer good quality care. 

 Phuket International Hospital, in the same area as BPH, is a smaller hospital with fewer specialized clinics.
It is, however, less expensive.

The price of first quality medical care in Thailand will surprise you!  If you are from America - you can guess that any procedure will cost only 15-35% of what you might pay at home, generally with no sacrifice in the level of care.

Dental Care on the island is also excellent.  If you want cosmetic dentistry for teeth whitening and more, you've found the right place.  Prices, again, are much cheaper than we are used to in the Western world.  Ask around about the quality of specific clinics and dentists.

Most clinics and doctors assume that all foreigners are wealthy and don't care about the price of their medicines.  This thinking even extends to the vet who will want to sell you expensive foreign medicine and products when locally produced goods are probably just fine.

What is really expensive is to have a serious medical problem and no, or lousy, coverage.  Yes, you will sometimes find that policies offered by major insurance providers quite expensive.  But there are some reasonable alternatives.
