Looking beyond the Kingdom's popularity as an exotic travel destination, many visitors have realised the benefits of taking care of their health here in Thailand. Health care services are extremely affordable here, and why not splash out the sum of money you saved - which can add up to be quite substantial - on a replenishing and relaxing holiday by the beach on Phuket or Samui?
Dental care, cosmetic surgery and LASIK surgery are the most common medical procedures visitors seek in Thailand, although coming here for medical check-ups, major heart surgery, IVF treatment or even to give birth are all becoming increasingly popular. Most of Bangkok's hospitals, and certainly the private ones, boast state-of-the-art facilities and technology, internationally trained doctors and multilingual staff, while some private hospitals offer special promotional packages to overseas visitors.

Factor in the affordability, world-class hospitals and the wealth of expertise at your disposal, and it's little wonder why so many now flock to Bangkok. (READ MORE)
