Allied Health is your best friend for medical tourism in Thailand

Thailand’s reputation for offering high-quality yet affordable medical care, cutting-edge technology, and timely services has made it a top choice as a medical tourism destination. At first glance, planning your treatment here might seem straightforward: book your flight, pick up your passport, and head over for the procedure. But as you research and start planning, things can quickly become overwhelming. Questions like “Which doctor is the best?”, “Is Thailand even safe?” “What about the language barrier?” inevitably arises.

So, how do you get a successful experience and avoid being a horror story? The answer is to work with a reputable medical tourism agency like Allied Health (Thailand). Led by experienced doctor Lt. Col. Chokchai Suwanakijboriharn M.D., Allied Health (Thailand) guides you every step of the way, from selecting a healthcare provider to post-treatment care.

Here’s how they can help make your medical tourism in Thailand smooth and stress-free.

8 Reasons why Allied Health (Thailand) is your best friend for medical tourism in Thailand

1. Expert guidance from a practising doctor

When you’re traveling to another country for medical care, you want someone with real-world experience leading the way. Allied Health (Thailand) is led by Lt. Col. Chokchai Suwanakijboriharn, M.D., a highly experienced doctor who oversees the agency’s operations. With extensive experience in Thailand’s medical care system, Dr. Chokchai deeply understands the country’s healthcare landscape. This makes him uniquely qualified to guide medical tourists in accessing quality healthcare in the country. His experience also gives Allied Health (Thailand) a distinct advantage in providing personalized recommendations for treatment options, specialists, and facilities that suit each patient’s unique needs.

2. Matching you with the right treatment

Whether you need orthopedic surgery, cosmetic procedures, or fertility treatments, the last thing you want is to fly to Thailand only to realise you’re undergoing a procedure you don’t actually need. Thailand’s medical facilities are generally of high quality. Still, it’s important to acknowledge that not every provider operates with the same level of integrity. Some may prioritise profit over patient care.

With Allied Health (Thailand) by your side, however, you can rest easy. Their team provides detailed consultations to make sure your diagnosis and treatment options are thoroughly reviewed. Their team takes the time to walk you through your medical condition, outlining all available treatment paths so you can make an informed decision confidently.

Once you’ve decided on the treatment, Allied Health (Thailand) works with you to connect you with trusted experts in fields ranging from cardiovascular disease and chronic kidney disease to gender reassignment surgery and IVF treatments and so on.

3. Free second medical opinion consultation

Medical decisions are complex, and it’s common to seek more than one opinion before making a choice. Allied Health (Thailand) offers a free second medical opinion as part of their services, ensuring you have the information needed to make an informed decision about your treatment.

This feature allows you to get a comprehensive evaluation of your medical condition from a specialist within the Allied Health (Thailand) network. This extra layer of consultation provides reassurance that you’re on the right path to recovery while also giving you insights into potential alternative treatments.

4. Comprehensive treatment planning

Aside from the stress of picking a safe hospital, one of the most annoying parts of medical tourism is figuring out the entire process. In order to make it easier for you, Allied Health (Thailand) covers everything from recommending specialists to travel arrangements. Some of the main offerings included in their medical package are as follows:

  • Pre-treatment consultations: As mentioned in the previous section, Allied Health (Thailand) provides detailed consultations and, if necessary, a second opinion to help you fully understand your diagnosis and treatment options. These consultations can be conducted either in person or via video call, depending on your preferences.
  • Connecting you with top specialists and hospitals: They match you with the best healthcare providers for your specific condition.
  • Appointment scheduling: One of the common pain points for medical tourists is the waiting time to get appointments. Allied Health (Thailand)’s relationships with top hospitals mean that they can fast-track your consultations and treatments.
  • Travel arrangements: Allied Health (Thailand) takes care of all logistics, including airport pickups, hotel bookings, and local transportation to and from the hospital, so you can focus on your health.
  • Follow-up reminders: After your procedure, Allied Health (Thailand) makes sure you’re on track for recovery by providing timely follow-up reminders and, if needed, coordinates with your doctors back home so you can receive continuity of care.

Moreover, you don’t have to worry about a rigid, one-size-fits-all approach. Allied Health (Thailand) understands that every patient’s needs are unique, and they tailor their services to meet your specific requirements.

5. Access to Thailand’s best hospitals and clinics

When it comes to medical tourism, trust is everything. Dr. Chokchai has vetted hospitals and clinics across Thailand to make sure they offer exceptional healthcare, with a focus on international healthcare standards, outstanding customer service, advanced medical technology, and affordable pricing. This is why they only partner with hospitals and clinics that have earned some of the most respected international accreditations for patient safety and clinical care, including certifications from the International Standards Organization (ISO), the American Accreditation Commission International, and the Joint Commission International (JCI).

Some of the trusted hospitals in their network include Bangkok Hospital, Samitivej Hospital, Bangkok Phuket Hospital, Bangkok Hospital Siriroj, Thonburi Bamrungmuang Hospital, Phyathai Hospital, Paolo Hospital, and Asoke Skin Hospital, and BNH Hospital, all renowned for their high-quality healthcare services. Therefore, you don’t have to worry about safety and quality. Working with Allied Health (Thailand) means you’ll receive world-class treatment, no matter what your medical needs are.

While Allied Health (Thailand) offers expert recommendations, they believe that you should have control over your healthcare decisions. That’s why their process is designed to give you the freedom to choose the hospital, clinic, or doctor that best aligns with your specific needs. After providing you with a list of carefully vetted options, Allied Health (Thailand) allows you to make the final call.

6. Interpreter and language services

A lot of medical tourists feel apprehensive about getting treatment in Thailand because of the language barrier. Expressing your concerns in your own language can already be challenging, so imagine doing it in a country where a different language is spoken.

If you’re not fluent in Thai, Allied Health (Thailand) offers free interpreter services to facilitate clear and accurate communication between you and your healthcare provider at every stage. Medical terminology can often be complex and hard to understand, but their interpreters make sure that these terms will be explained in your own language. This service isn’t limited to English as they offer interpreters for several other languages as well. Simply let them know the language you’re most comfortable with, and they’ll do their best to provide an interpreter for you.

7. Personalised support throughout your journey

Since traveling for medical care can be an emotional and logistical challenge, Allied Health (Thailand) offers personalised support throughout your medical journey. From the moment you contact them, Allied Health (Thailand) assigns a dedicated care coordinator who helps with every aspect of your experience. This support doesn’t end once you arrive in Thailand. If needed, they can arrange for a professional to accompany you to hospital visits and procedures (for a fee).

8. Financial transparency so you know what to expect

Many people choose Thailand as a medical tourism destination due to its affordability, but hidden costs can quickly erase those savings. Some providers advertise low rates, only to hit you with unexpected “additional costs” later, leaving you paying as much as you would at home. However, Allied Health (Thailand) provides complete financial transparency. They provide a detailed breakdown of pricing at your chosen facility, so you know exactly what to expect upfront before you even step foot in Thailand.

Though Allied Health (Thailand) will provide transparent pricing details, you will be responsible for managing all financial transactions directly with the hospital or clinic. This ensures that there’s no hidden markup.

Medical tourism in Thailand doesn’t have to be stressful or overwhelming. With Allied Health (Thailand), you gain a trusted friend to guide you through every step of the process, from choosing a hospital to interpreting medical jargon. They will handle every aspect of your medical journey with care and professionalism. Interested? Get your free consultation today.
