How Much Does Knee Arthroscopy Cost in Thailand?

The cost of knee arthroscopy in Thailand typically ranges from $2,500 / ฿85,000 to $4,000 / ฿136,000. Prices vary depending on the clinic, the surgeon’s experience, and whether the procedure is diagnostic or involves repairs like meniscus trimming or ligament work. In the U.S., the average cost is $10,000 / ฿340,000 (per AAOS). Knee arthroscopy in Thailand is about 67% less than in the U.S.

Most Thai clinics include the initial consultation, pre-op blood tests, post-op medications, follow-up visits, and 24/7 patient support. You also get English-speaking care, meals during visits, and a personalized treatment plan. In the U.S., many of these items—especially follow-ups and medications—are billed separately. Always confirm what’s covered at your chosen clinic.

I am healing faster than I expected, and I am back to my computer, and piano based work 10 days later

Menness clinic is very professional, and I highly recommend them for carpal tunnel release. I had a bilateral open release done by Dr. Big, the orthopedic surgeon on staff at Menness clinic. I was nervous going in because my CTS was severe and I have cerebral palsy. I was pleased to learn that Dr. Big had performed surgery on people with CP previously, and knew exactly what to expect, and how to operate on me to get the best outcome possible. I am healing faster than I expected, and I am back to my computer, and piano based work 10 days later.

What is the level of medicine in Thailand?

Healthcare is the key development sector of the Thai government. The Thai authorities are convinced that care for the citizens' health should be an absolute priority of state policy and spend about 25 billion baht for healthcare annually.

As a result, 36,673 medical facilities provide excellent medical care in the country. 64 centers in the Kingdom have certificate of JCI (Joint Commission International), the international improver of healthcare quality and safety across the globe. The index of certificates obtained is the largest. To compare, Israel has 20 JCI-accredited facilities, and Germany — only 10 clinics of this type.

What hotel service is provided here?

In the Kingdom of Thailand, hotels of different price ranges and service levels are presented. The level of Thai hotels is comparable to hotels in Tunisia, Morocco or Egypt. Most tourists choose 4 and 5 star hotels with all-inclusive meals. Such hotels have everything for a comfortable stay: varied food, a large well-groomed territory, animation for children and adults. Some hotels have their own water park, which guests can use for free. Budget travelers can afford to book an economical 3-star hotel with half board or no meals at all.

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. The best time to travel is during the cool and dry season between November and early April. A large influx of tourists is in March-May, when the air temperature is +30°C.

Do I need a visa?

For now, the Kingdom of Thailand requires different visa regimens for diverse states. Some foreigners can stay in the country 60 days without visa control, some of them — only 14 days.
