Reviews of Chiangmai Ram Hospital

FOREIGNERS: ask every single fee first, especially including the DOCTORS FEE. (Which is usually just talking to a doctor for 30 seconds) The services are good and professional, but they are going to try to rip you off wherever they can, in one way or another.Some times if you ask every price first, they don’t dare to give u the ridiculous doctors fee, knowing you will walk away. So you will get given the normal price.But if u dont ask, then receive the service, they can charge you whatever they want afterward. Actually this rule applies to any service in Thailand.Also the medicine they prescribe at the end is always 5 x more expensive than pharmacies on the street. Try to find out what it is before paying then tell the cashier u don’t want the meds.Ive been to this hospital and Bangkok Hospital multiple times, both are always the same but RAM is maybe worse.For smaller treatments they might not add much, maybe some random thing in Thai for 300 baht hoping you just pay it anyway. But for larger 5000+ baht treatments they often slap on a couple more thousand.For large operations they could bump it up to anything.They’re gonna try to do it. But you can take some precautions and keep asking the price of everything as you go along, some times it seems to help.Its a good clean hospital with professional doctors that speak English. Always, always be polite.

Really nice hospital. Had to spend 2 nights to get better from an infection in my stomach. Lovely staff, which all helped me out to also fix everything with insurance. If you need a hospital, this one is really good.

Ask for all costs up front because they bill things in such a way even comprehensive Thai insurance will not cover it. Furthermore inspect every bill as they charged me for things they never did and medication they never gave me. Wish I had gone to another hospital.

Best hospital I’ve ever visited. It was fast, attentive, thorough, and the staff was very professional and nice. The hospital itself is very high quality and modern. I got a wellness check for an Australian Visa, which was 3,000 Baht. Simple blood test, height, weight, blood pressure, heart rate, chest X-ray, and the doctor listened to my heart and lungs. They submitted everything for me online the same day and got my visa approved. So I think the price is due to these conveniences and the fact that they are a verified hospital on the Australian Visa portal page. Overall, the experience was amazing, well organized, and professional. The nurses taking blood were extremely good at their jobs and were understanding and helpful for my partner who has needle fear.

We are from the states and hubby was sick! They were super friendly and thorough. They made sure he was comfortable. They did multiple tests and sent him home with meds. We are grateful since we are here for just two weeks for vacation. The bill was reasonable too. Thank you!

Update:Got my first shingles dose. The price for the shingrix vaccine is the best amongst all the places I have checked.Their new wing is excellent and the quality of doctor and nurses is simply the best!!Excellent service overall and recommend this place to anyone who wants a quality service at a reasonable priceDid my PCR test this morning. Excellent service and excellent staff.

Great location. Great friendly service. Fast service. People complaining about the price simply comparing to a public hospital. For a private hospital, it’s a good deal. Sometimes I think about breaking my arm again just to revisit their helpful nurses and doctors.

Had to visit this hospital while on vacation & it was the best experience possible regarding the circumstances. It was very clean, fast and we saw the doctor right away. She was very confident and made our visit go as smooth as possible.

This has been the best and most efficient medical care I’ve ever received. I came with a swollen eye and pain - the doctor was able to immediately identify the root cause and completed the procedure to drain the pustule I had on my inner eyelid. I was in and out within 1.5 hour (would have been 1hr if I didn’t come close to fainting during the procedure 😅). I also left with all my prescribed medicine as they have a pharmacy as part of everything. They accepted my travel insurance. Overall amazing experience.

I would like to thank the staff of Chiang Mai Ram hospital for their excellent service. I'm from Singapore. I've sustained facial, dental and knee injuries during a mountain bike adventure. The staff attended to me promptly ensuring my wounds were cleaned and I was overall fine. A staff followed up with a call on the following day to check my condition. Thank you so much.

I had an appointment with the gynecologist MD. PREMJIT CHAROENWEERAKUL on December 4. the doctor, after an ultrasound and examination, concluded that I have an ovarian cyst with a twist. She began to insist on immediate hospitalization and surgery on the day of treatment. The cost of the operation was estimated at 200,000 baht. She said that the situation is absolutely critical, if I go home I will start tissue necrosis and sepsis. she did not give me the conclusion and ultrasound images for a long time, under the pretext that I was going to surgery now anyway. I had no symptoms other than a rare pulling, non-acute pain. I received the second and third opinions of doctors in other hospitals: with my diagnosis, there is no threat to life (your doctor said otherwise) and the operation is not shown to me. I was treated rudely and manipulated.if I had no experience with such a diagnosis, I would probably have agreed to an unnecessary operation for 200,000 baht.

The CMRam is an international class hospital..little to busy reception and hard to find who to adress to be cared for . .Emergency service are good .. their new icu unit is really modern with very well trained staff .my wife had been treated for a cervix cancer . surgery been really incerdibly well she recover so quick.Not every doctors are good in my opinion , not all of them.speak english . .the time to wait is little to long but bills very raisonable for this standard ..i prefer for myself the bangkok hospital but you need a very good international insurance for this one 3 x more expensive ..

As a German, I was impressed in every way with this hospital. The staff and doctor were amazing, friendly, and supportive! I felt much better thanks to the medicine, and I was really happy with how they focused on the patients. It was the best hospital experience I've ever had. I wish German hospitals were just as good, clear, direct, supportive, and multilingual as this one. Thanks a lot! 👌🇩🇪🤍🇹🇭

I went in with a case of extreme pelvic pain and dizziness. The doctor I saw seemed very condescending and frustrated as to why I had come. The diagnosis and treatment they gave me was wrong and I was waiting in all different areas of the hospital without being told what was happening for hours.The prices were extortionate and they have not sent me my test results after 10 days (they said they will be with me in a week). This cost me lots of money and alot of mental strain and I am still unwell.i was not informed of any of the test prices. the whole experience cost me over 11,000 baht and I feel like they exploited me due to being foreign. Avoid.

Absolutely incredible care and support from the mental health team here. They have supported me very delicately in a time of need.There is arrogance in the West about understanding of mental illness and the struggles every human has. If you are wondering if you can be supported with human kindness as well as intelligent use of medication then please do not worry. Try this team and tell them your story and they will help.Floor 4 Specialty department. Thank you all.

Went to emergency room today and it was pretty much a huge waste of time and money. The staff there exist only to take money from you and stack charges on top of charges to your bill. They don’t speak English well and don’t explain what they are doing or how much it will cost. I can’t imagine what would happen if I was incapacitated. I would have to sell my house to pay the hospital bill. If they are not trying to rip you off they are treating you like sheet. Basically, they bully you into getting procedures done. Make you wait for hours just to tell you to go to a different hospital and instead of putting you in a car they want you to take the ambulance so they can charge more. They don’t care about you they just care about taking your money and doing absolute least amount of work they can while gossiping all day. Shameful conduct and very unprofessional. I’m glad I finally said no and walked away with only 1800 baht bill. Which all they did was take my blood pressure and some blood but not give me the results for any of the tests. A bunch of crooks.

Visited two different urologists. Both were completely useless. Dangerously bad at their jobs.Ended up going to the Bangkok hospital across town for a third opinion and the doctor actually knew what they were talking about. They were really surprised that the other doctors at Ram hadn't even asked basic questions or thought of the most obvious diagnoses.If I'd only listened to the Ram hospital doctors then I would be facing permanent life changing health problems.Only giving 1 stars because the hospital itself seemed fairly clean and the nurse and admin staff were professional.I don't know what other departments are like. But based off the medical advice i received, I'd happily give minus stars if possible.

If you are a tourist and need some medical assistance, come here. Very easy and someone attended me tejo spoke English. The workers were nice and the doctor. Helped me with a stomach infection. This place was recommended to me by a friend and it delivered

All the smaller ear clinics were closed today, I came here instead. Super professional, a team of people fluent in English to help out throughout the process - and a good ear doctor who quickly had a look and cleared out my ear (and confirmed there was no infection and no need for antibiotics like prescribed from another clinic). I can hear again 😍

I came here after dislocating my shoulder and was surprised how smooth and quick everything went. If this is only 3.6 stars then hospitals in Australia should be negative 1 star. I was in and out in under 3 hours. In Australia, 3 hours is the minimum wait time to see a doctor.

Came here recently for a medical check up as part of an Australian visa application. Was very impressed by how efficient everything was, especially seeing as we showed up without an appointment. They charged us less than we were quoted in other hospitals and gave great service

I was used to come for several years and quite often in this hospital and everything was ok. But I came recently to the counter 2 Medicine. And there, I have been received by Miss Sirirat Prathedrat who has been quite rude and unpolite. The minimum required in an international hospital is to have the sense of politeness. Or maybe is it not included in the high price we pay...

The Dr's and staff have been more than patient with me, I've found them very helpful. In the chances that there are/were any discrepancies management has worked with me generously to resolve any misunderstandings. I found Chiang Mai Ram to be reasonable priced, and equipped with decent English speaking staff. Thank you for all your help and extra patience with me during my trying times. I found a little kindness can go a long way, and I was treated with respect and compassion that helped alleviate the issues I was suffering from. I recommended this Hospital in Chiang Mai as one of the better options for price and service. I will continue to seek treatment at this facility.

I cannot express enough how grateful I am to the doctors and nurses at Chiangmai Ram Hospital. We have seen a range of doctors, including those for diabetes, pediatrics, gynecology, gastroenterology, and EENT, and each one has been super kind, genuinely caring, and very good at what they do. They take the time to listen to our concerns and provide us with the best possible care.Extra shoutout to the nurses at the 5th floor nursery, where we spent nights after giving birth to our baby. They went above and beyond to help us and our baby, always with a smile on their face and an assuring tone in their voice. Their kindness, compassion, and extra efforts touched us deeply and made our stay at the hospital a much more positive experience.Overall, I highly recommend Chiangmai Ram Hospital for their excellent doctors and nurses who truly care about their patients. Thank you for all that you do!

Good hospital, helpful staff. I came here feeling really bad in stomach, was quickly attended by the doctor, received medication (intravenous and also got pills). One hour later I was feeling perfect again. The bill was around 4200 baht including everything, but my insurance paid it all. The communication between the insurance company and hospital was also very efficient. Thank you!

My wife required surgery to remove a cyst. We visited Chiang Mai Ram hospital and had a very positive experience.The doctor was professional yet empathic and understanding towards my wife’s fears. There were also translators who can converse in English and Chinese. And the waiting times were short.The surgery went very smoothly. The ward was spacious and nurses very courteous. It was even better when the overall cost came in cheaper than what was forecasted by the hospital (honest).Would highly recommend.

Have not been here for years and will certainly NOT be going back!! They charge you for breathing their air! What a rip-off!! Better to go to Govt. Hospitals, great service & more often than not, the same doctors. Very disappointing! The Doctors & Nurses are great so no complaint there.

The waiting time is almost the same as going to a public hospital but it’s much more expensive than a public hospital.Took me an hour of waiting just to see a doctor. Rather go to Bangkok hospital (on the superhighway road) for better service and small price difference.

Their ARI CLINIC is really well organised with English speaking staffs willing to help you. All the nurses are friendly and helpful too. Really good services. Did PCR test here and they did a thorough screening me, and then gave doctor opinions, listened to my problem and willing to help. Great hospital in Chiang Mai

Took less than 15 minutes between when I walked in and when I was talking to a doctor (after they checked my temp and blood pressure). The most professional and efficient healthcare I've ever received. Paid 500 baht to speak with a doctor. Everyone spoke great English. Super impressed.

EDIT.I attended RAM on 05/01/22 for a PCR test as I was flying International.WOW!The staff here are super.They apologised firstly to me as there may be a wait as they were busy.From entry to the Hospital, to check up, doctors consultation, payment, PCR swabs, to leaving, all done within an hour.They called with my results within hours and the next morning my documents were waiting for me at the counter.This is an outstanding Medical Facility.Thank you to everyone that works at RAM. 🙏😷😊I've attended Ram 3 times now.Once last year and again yesterday. 31/03/21.This is an excellent facility.From arrival at the front door and having Covid19 temp check, to check in at reception, to being escorted to Pathology, having Blood Test, then to see a Specialist.ALL STAFF are polite, friendly, understanding, caring, respectful and professional.The Hospital is Spotlessly clean.Covid19 1 metre rule applies in all areas.Prescriptions, if you need medication, are filled on the premises.I wouldn't go anywhere else for Medical Treatment.This place is great.

Went to do my pre flight COVID test here. 3,000 baht for the PCR test and it took me about 1 hour to do all the paperwork and sit around which was a bit too much but whatever.Got my result about 8 hours later (you can go pick it up at the hospital) BUT didn't receive it in my email until about 14 hours after my test. You have to tell them you want it sent to your email address. So just be aware of this.

Visited on December 19, 2021 The inside of the hospital is cleaner than the outside and the staff are friendly. But I've been waiting for the doctor for two hours now. I respect the doctor, but I can't wait for them. Especially for sick people. I hear a part-time doctor is coming, but he doesn't.

I was at the hospital today to make an appointment for my wife with a psychiatrist. When I asked the attendant about the value of the consultation, she was unable to inform me... She said that the doctor will tell me the value at the time of the consultation.How can I book a medical appointment without knowing the amount I will have to pay? What if, on the day of the consultation, I disagree with the amount the doctor charges? This way of working is very strange.

Last night I walked into the emergency room after a minor motorcycle accident while off roading. Nothing serious. I was very impressed in how quickly I was treated and taken care of. The staff are very respectful. I spoke Thai but they spoke excellent English in case your Thai isn’t that good. Within an hour I was in, treated, and out with a treatment plan and medicine.I am so grateful to this hospital and staff. I feel even better to be living in chiang mai now because I know now if there is anything more serious I will go to chiang mai ram hospital and can rest easy knowing that I’ll be taken care of at a fair, relatively affordable price.Thank you all staff for my great experience yesterday evening! I felt much better after the hospital both from the meds and also kind staff.

I was prescribed an antibiotic that is known to have a MAJOR and serious drug interaction with another medication I was taking prescribed by them (I even disclosed that I was on this medication as it was prescribed by their dermatologist to make sure they read my file correctly). I could have died or had permanent blindness as a result of their error. There was a complete lack of competency. After 6 days I developed a full body rash, headache, and two days of fatigue to where I could not move as a result of their error. I followed up with an appointment and they did not accept responsibility for prescribing me two medications that should never be taken together. They could care less that they compromised my health and cost me more money.

Great service. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The process was very quick. Their staff can speak English, so there are many non-Thai citizens who go here. It's one of the fanciest and most expensive hospitals in Chiang Mai.

Very knowledgeable doctor. But I strongly encourage you to be sure and check price before you agree to any services. The nursing staff gave me my price for a MRI. After getting my MRI the price was double. They told me they will discount the new higher price for me since they told me another price to begin with. They also told me the nursing fee was not included in the new price, but they would kindly not charge me for that. I ended up paying 25% more then what they initially told me would be my price and that is with their discount off the new higher price they quoted me. Very unprofessional. I appreciated the doctor though, just did not feel this was fair to treat their patients this way.

Professional staff, but watch out for the blatant over-prescribing of prescription medicine. I was charged 3710 baht for 1 (unnecessary) drug alone. If it were not for having medical insurance, I would have returned this drug once I paid for it. Also, their website is shockingly unuseful.

Mon époux à été hospitalisé 3 nuits dans cet hôpital pour un problème de dent et infection urinaire avec une forte fièvre. Après avoir consulté un dentiste de ville le matin sur le conseil du staff hôtel Mercure, n'ayant pas été capable de faire une radio, de s'occuper de l'abcès, comme seule consigne : tout est bien , prendre encore 7 jours d'amoxicilline et régler le problème en France. Fièvre à 395 l'après -midi, consultation à l'hôpital privé sur les conseils d'une cliente française de l'hôtel. Comportement identique que celui du dentiste , auscultation normale, problème à régler en france. Consultation succincte à distance pour la bouche, aucune possibilité d'avoir une radio et une prise de sang. Conseil: aller à l'hôpital publique pour être aidé par un interprète francophone. Nous, nous y sommes rendus et là, nous avons pu être entendus. Prise de sang , analyse d'urine, dentiste et le diagnostique est tombé : infection grave avec obligation d'une antibiotherapie intraveineuse. Après 3 nuits galères avec des carences , les mêmes qu'en France, mon époux est sorti contre avis médical, pour continuer le traitement per os. Difficile de gérer tout cela . Notre chance, étant infirmière, j'ai pu rester les 3 nuits et veiller au soin. Sur le plan hygiène rien à dire, Sur la prise en charge du médecin, formidable. Je ne dirais pas la même chose des interprètes qui se permettent un peu trop de juger, mais rendent service cependant. Il y a pléthore de personnel. Le confort hôtelier est le même qu'à l'Américain de Neuilly. Tous ne pouvons pas y aller. Si vous sortez contre avis vous devez avancer les frais. Un peu plus de 1000 euros pour 3 nuits, ce qui reste abordable . Le service dentaire est d'un grand professionnalisme. La dent en cause à été extraite dans le plus grand art, nous ferons une consultation le 11, avant notre départ pour la France. Trois semaines qui finissent bien . Malgré un nombre incroyable de personnel , en tant infirmière, j' y rencontré les mêmes personnes qu'en France. Gentilles avec leurs failles. Rien n'est parfait, ne pas toujours idéaliser.

Consultation un jour férié. Délai de prise en charge : 2 minutes. Arrivée très rapide d’une interprète (3 minutes) Personnel aimable, pro et tenue impeccable. Évaluation rapide des signes vitaux. Examen médical en présence d’une assistante. L’examen médical réalisé correspond à une bonne pratique médicale. Examens biologiques réalisés rapidement et adaptés au diagnostic supposé.Au total une organisation qui tient parfaitement la route et dont beaucoup d’hôpitaux français feraient bien de s’inspirer tellement ils sont loins de ce niveau d’efficience.Évidemment tout cela a un coût. Mais il faut savoir ce que l’on veut.Bravo.
