Bangkok Hospital Pattaya is a private tertiary referral hospital in Pattaya, Thailand. Founded in 1990, it grew from a 100-bed clinic into a 16-story medical center with 300 beds. It serves as the main medical hub for Thailand's Eastern Seaboard, treating over 400,000 patients yearly.
The hospital holds Joint Commission International (JCI) accreditation – the only facility in Pattaya with this certification. It also has Clinical Care Program Certifications for Primary Stroke Care, Hip and Knee Surgery, and Low Back Pain. Each year, the hospital treats over 170,000 international patients. The medical team includes 200+ physicians and 170 consultants.
Neuroscience and Rehabilitation
The Neuroscience Center provides full-spectrum care for brain and nerve disorders. Specialists run sub-clinics for stroke, epilepsy, memory disorders, and Parkinson's disease. The neurosurgery team treats complex conditions like brain hemorrhages in specialized acute care units.
For patients with walking impairments or neurological trauma, the hospital uses the WALKBOT system. This robotic gait training platform helps patients regain mobility through automated movement patterns. The rehabilitation department also supports long-term recovery after stroke and brain injury.
Oncology and Urology
The Cancer Center focuses on early detection and personalized surgical oncology. Dr. Tapanutt Likhitmaskul and Dr. Norachai Choungrangsi specialize in breast surgery. Diagnostic tools include 3D digital mammography with tomosynthesis, which provides clearer imaging for denser breast tissue.
The Urology Center offers advanced treatments for prostate health, including early-stage cancer and enlargement. Dr. Niti Navanimitkul performs HoLEP (Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate). This laser technique removes obstructing tissue to improve urinary flow. It causes less bleeding than traditional surgery. The clinic also provides focal therapy for localized prostate cancer.
Orthopedics and Specialized Internal Medicine
The Bone and Spine Center manages musculoskeletal fractures, degenerative joint diseases, and spinal injuries. Dedicated units handle hip and knee replacement and fracture care. Post-operative recovery is coordinated with the physical therapy department to restore joint function.
Nephrology services include high-efficiency kidney dialysis led by Dr. Nantawan Tinroongroj. The hospital uses Online Hemodiafiltration (OL-HDF), which cleanses blood more effectively than standard dialysis by removing larger toxins. An ultrapure water system ensures patient safety during treatment.
Diagnostic and Treatment Technology
The hospital uses several advanced imaging and treatment platforms:
- ARTIS Pheno – a robotic 3D fluoroscope for high-resolution surgical imaging.
- FibroScan – a non-invasive tool to assess liver stiffness and fibrosis.
- PET/CT Scan – used for oncology staging and metabolic activity mapping.
- MOBILE CCU – a mobile coronary care unit for emergency cardiac transport.
The team also uses the Picture Archiving Communication System (PACS) to share digital images across departments instantly.
Services for International Patients
Bangkok Hospital Pattaya runs an International Service Department and an Overseas Network Office to assist travelers. Interpreters for major international languages help patients communicate with their doctors. Online consultations are available 24/7 via a dedicated video-call platform.
