Some Bangkok hospitals are definitely world-class. My favourite is Bumrungrad Hospital. While they won't miss to ask a client how he intends to pay, they are still cheap by German standards.

With a record of 2 Malarias and 1 Dengue Fever, I have some experience in local hospitalization. Believe me, Bangkok is not a bad place to be sick. Assuming you choose the right hospital. Some Bangkok hospitals are definitely world-class. My favourite is Bumrungrad Hospital. While they won't miss to ask a client how he intends to pay, they are still cheap by German standards. |
