Samitivej Hospitals: more details about the clinic
Thailand, Bangkok
Samitivej Hospitals, established in 1979, is a private healthcare group in Bangkok's Sukhumvit area. The group has grown from one facility into a network of 8 hospitals with over 4,000 beds. It treats more than one million patients every year. International patients account for about 40% of total volume.
Accreditations and Achievements
The group holds JCI accreditation, showing adherence to international healthcare quality standards. Several certifications and awards recognize its clinical performance:
- Top 10 World's Best Hospital for Medical Tourism by MTQUA.
- Cardiology Hospital of the Year in Thailand.
- Colorectal Cancer Center of the Year in Asia-Pacific.
- Mother and Baby Friendly Hospital certification by WHO and UNICEF.
- Pediatric Oncology & Bone Marrow Transplant Center of the Year in Asia-Pacific.
In 2026, Samitivej Srinakarin Hospital earned "Committed" level certification from the Age-Friendly Health Systems program.
Advanced Gastroenterology
The gastroenterology department focuses on early cancer detection and polyp removal. Dr. Teerha Piratvisuth leads the team, which uses AI-assisted colonoscopy to improve diagnostic precision. The program reports a 45% adenoma detection rate – above many international benchmarks.
Since 2015, the clinic has trained with Sano Hospital in Japan. Specialists use Narrow-Band Imaging (NBI) and the NICE classification system with magnification. This helps identify early-stage gastric and colorectal cancers. The clinic reports over 27,600 successful colorectal cancer prevention cases and a 0% perforation rate.
Specialized Pediatric Care
Samitivej International Children's Hospital provides tertiary care for infants and adolescents. The Srinakarin branch has an 8-story building with 111 beds dedicated to pediatric patients. The facility includes specialized centers for epilepsy, trauma, and rehabilitation.
The Pediatric Blood and Cancer Center performs haploidentical stem cell transplantation. This allows parents or siblings to donate when a perfect match isn't available. The hospital reports a 92% one-year survival rate for bone marrow transplant patients. Surgeons also use ultra-small instruments for neonatal procedures, with incisions measuring only 2 mm.
Spine Surgery and Rehabilitation
Orthopedic surgeons, including Dr. Chaiyapruk Pundee, perform minimally invasive spine procedures. Patients undergoing microsurgical or endoscopic discectomy for herniated disks typically walk within 3 hours. Most go home after 1–2 nights.
The restorative medicine team creates tailored recovery programs after surgery or spinal cord injuries. Specialists use Isokinetic muscle testing and Biodex balance equipment to track progress. Rehabilitation includes suspended exercise systems and individualized training to help patients return to daily activities.
Technology and International Services
Samitivej operates as a Smart Hospital with digital ward technologies. Patient rooms feature the Paramount bed system, which includes automated fall monitoring and out-of-bed alerts. The Samitivej PACE system gives relatives real-time updates during surgery.
The hospital offers several services for international patients:
- Teleconsultation via Samitivej Virtual Hospital for second opinions.
- Treatment planning based on submitted medical records.
- In-hospital interpreters fluent in Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Burmese, and Indonesian.
- Direct coordination with international insurers for cashless billing.
- Aeromedical transport and repatriation services.
Dedicated coordinators assist with cost planning and administrative needs throughout the stay.

We were in Bangkok on holiday and our infant became ill. We were well taken care of here. Everyone was very nice, friendly and helpful. My wife even said the hospital food was excellent.

My husband was seen at this clinic by Dr. Chulamanee Wongteerayanee for a rash he developed while traveling. The staff all spoke English and assisted us through the entire process from registration to picking up the prescriptions. The Dr. spoke good English and was patient and thorough. Fee was about 1000 baht for the MD and 400 for medications.

The only private hospital around Thonburi area under the brand of Samitivej. You can get the same look and feel of other branches in the city. Expensive of course but the service is great! Not crowded. No long queue. Even when you come here for the first time, the register process will take only 3mins. Free shuttle bus to BTS Wongwianyai. And you better have health insurance to come here :)

I would highly recommend this hospital to anyone travelling overseas. Our surgeon was Dr Angkana and we could not expect a more professional, realistic and caring doctor. My husband had his upper and lower eyelid surgery and I had a few other procedures and could not have expected anymore. The hospital was clean and very hygienic and the nurses were second to none. We were sad to leave the hospital because the care and empathy of everyone of the nurses and staff were beyond expectations. Three weeks after our surgery, I have already been back at work for 1 week and delighted with the outcome of our procedures. The Surgeon was very thorough in her examinations and consultations, explained all risks. She gave us very realistic outcomes and no over - promising of the results. We are delighted.
