How it works

Bookimed is free for patients – clinics pay us a commission, and you pay the clinic its own price with no markup. Five steps to your stem cell treatment for degenerative diseases in Thailand:

  1. Share your case

    Tell us about your condition and share your latest scans and medical reports.

  2. Get treatment plans

    Your coordinator finds clinics that match your needs and helps you choose. Your preferred clinics then send personalized treatment plans and quotes for you to compare.

  3. Plan your trip

    We set treatment dates that work for you and help arrange your flights and accommodation.

  4. Visit the clinic

    The clinic team performs your stem cell treatment for degenerative diseases on the agreed dates. We support you throughout your trip.

  5. Back home

    You can fly home 2–4 days after treatment, and symptom changes may emerge over 3–6 months. Your coordinator stays in touch and helps arrange a follow-up if you need one.

Some clinics ask for a deposit. A $200 or €200 deposit paid through Bookimed comes off your clinic bill and is refundable up to 10 calendar days before your visit. A deposit paid to the clinic follows its own terms.

Stem Cell Treatment for Degenerative Diseases recovery timeline: what to expect week by week

You can usually fly home after 2–4 days only after a same-day outpatient harvest and injection, if you have no bleeding, fever, or severe pain and your clinic confirms. Desk work may be possible after 1–2 days, while physical work after a joint or spinal injection may take up to 3 days or longer. Light activity can resume after 1–2 weeks, with a gradual return to full exercise over 2–6 weeks as your treating physician advises. Symptom changes may emerge over 3–6 months, when your response is assessed.

  1. Days 0–3

    Expect soreness at the harvest and treated areas. Rest with gentle walking, avoid heavy lifting and impact exercise, and keep puncture sites clean and dry. After a same-day outpatient harvest and injection, fly home after 2–4 days only if you have no bleeding, fever, or severe pain and your clinic confirms.

  2. Weeks 1–2

    Pain settles while you continue daily activities and resume light exercise. Avoid strenuous sports, and avoid anti-inflammatory drugs unless your physician allows them.

  3. Weeks 2–6

    Gradually return to full exercise and increase your load step by step. Use physiotherapy if prescribed.

  4. Months 3–6

    Your symptom response is assessed during this period.

When to contact your clinic: Contact your clinic for a fever of 100.4°F or higher or severe pain. Seek emergency help for shortness of breath at rest.

Traveling to Thailand for a Stem Cell Treatment for Degenerative Diseases

Plan 2–4 days in Thailand after the procedure before flying home, including about 1 night in hospital. US and UK passport holders can stay without a visa for up to 30 days, and planned treatment beyond 60 days may need a medical-treatment visa.

When What happens
Before the procedure Arrival, consultation and agreed tests
First night after Stay in hospital
1–3 days after Check-up
2–4 days after Flight home
Later Second trip

Before you fly

  • Visa. US and UK passport holders can stay without a visa for up to 30 days. US tourists staying under 60 days must register online before arrival. All foreigners must submit Thailand's Digital Arrival Card before arrival. Planned treatment beyond 60 days may need a medical-treatment visa.
  • Passport. US authorities strongly recommend that your US passport be valid for at least six months beyond arrival. Your UK passport must expire at least six months after arrival and have at least 1 blank page.
  • Medicines. If you travel from the US, carry prescription medication in its original packaging with your doctor's prescription and check that it is legal in Thailand. UK travelers' prescriptions are usually accepted by hospitals and pharmacies across Thailand.
  • Hand luggage. The clinic asks you to bring a recent MRI of the affected joint or spine, X-ray reports of the affected area, a diagnosis and previous treatment summary, a list of blood thinners, and recent blood test results.

Getting there and staying

  • Airports. Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK) is 25 km from downtown Bangkok. Don Mueang Airport (DMK) is 23 km from the Grand Palace.
  • Flight time. Bangkok is about 9,600 km from London, with about 11–12 hours of flying time. It is about 13,900 km from New York, with about 16–17 hours of flying time. A connection adds time.
  • Emergency. In a medical emergency, call 191 and ask for an ambulance.

When to go

  • Weather. In Bangkok, average daytime highs are about 31 °C in September–January and about 35 °C in April–May. May–October are the wettest months, with 100 mm of rain or more.
  • Season. November through February is relatively drier and cooler, making it a better time for a recovery trip. May through October brings heavy rain, while April and May are especially hot.

Insurance and changes

  • Health cover. Medicare and Medicaid do not apply overseas for US travelers. US travelers should make sure their health insurance provides overseas coverage. UK travelers cannot use a UK GHIC or UK EHIC in Thailand.
  • Hospital payment. All hospitals require a guarantee of payment before treating patients.

Flying home

  • Fit to fly. You can usually fly home after 2–4 days only after a same-day outpatient harvest and injection, if you have no bleeding, fever, or severe pain and your clinic confirms.
  • Take home. Keep the medical records and medicine information needed for follow-up care after treatment abroad.

Verified review.
If you're considering this procedure, my main advice would be to research the specific doctor because while the clinic staff themselves were fantastic, my experience with the surgeon was a letdown. The facility was good and there were no additional expenses on top of what I paid. No surprises there. However, I felt the doctor was not accommodating and was showing not very concerned. The treatment consisted of multiple injections in one visit, but it’s still too early to tell about the outcome, and I don't know what type of stem cells were used. There has been little contact since I left. Ultimately, I would advise a future patient to avoid the same doctor who attended on me.
Coordinator stayed in touch
The Doctor was not very convincing and was very commercial minded, wanting to sell medicine. His English is not good, very difficult to understand. Very discouraging.

What is the level of medicine in Thailand?

The index of certificates obtained is the largest. To compare, Israel has 20 JCI-accredited facilities, and Germany — only 10 clinics of this type.

When is the best time to travel to Thailand?

The main advantage of Thai resorts is the long beach season. On the east coast and west coast the climate features are different, so take it into account when planning the trip.
