Thailand is considered by many to be the global leader
for medical tourism.
Thousands of Americans and Europeans have been traveling
to Thailand for decades seeking affordable world-class
medical treatment, for both elective and non-elective
procedures. Thailand also has a very large expatriate
community from American and Europe that receive medical
care from hundreds of private hospitals throughout
the country.
In addition to having a highly advanced healthcare
system, with state-of-the-art equipment, first-class
modern facilities, and an abundance of doctors with
advanced medical degrees and board certifications
from the US and Europe, Thailand is also world-renowned
as a top tourist destination. Thailand is also well
known for the generous hospitality of its service
minded population, which is why the country is often
referred to as “The Land of Smiles.”
The favorable exchange rate of the US Dollar to the
Thai Baht makes the already low cost medical treatment
an incredible value to medical tourists.
With one private hospital in Thailand being the first
to receive JCAHO Accreditation in all of Asia, many
others are following its lead and have begun the application
process. The Government of Thailand is also working
with the private hospital association in order to
maintain its national lead as an international medical
tourism hub. Our partner hospitals in Thailand are
among the top private healthcare facilities in the
country and are at par with the top facilities in
the US.
