Bangkok Hospital Pattaya was founded on 23rd  June 1990 in Pattaya, a holiday destination by the sea, which has grown to become probably the most popular of Thailand’s holiday destinations and located in the Eastern Seaboard of Thailand, Chonburi province. It is one of the 19 locations run by Bangkok Dusit Medical Services, the Bangkok Hospital Group and is the Main Referral Hospital for Eastern Seaboard of Thailand.

Since 1990, we have been growing to become a 400 beds facility and the center of Specialized Healthcare which provides all necessary diagnostic and curative services.

For example, our Heart Center. This is equipped with all special diagnostic instruments to analyze the heart and it conditions, including 2 Catheterization labs for Coronary Artery Angiograms to detect blocked arteries around the heart, equipment for Cardiac Electrophysiological Study (EP) and Radio Frequency (RF) Cardiac Ablation and Device Therapy. We even carry out Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery without using the artificial heart-lung machine.

We are the first hospital in the Eastern Region with all these technologies, equivalent to those in the major hospitals in Bangkok.

We also established well renowned centers as our Brain and Nuero-Science Center, Emergency Medical Services Center, Beauty Center-Dermatology and Cosmetic Surgery Center, Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery Center and etc.

For the past 19 years, we also have been a center of continuously strived for excellence. This led us to recruit more than 100 full time specialists currently active in our hospital, made us invest in modern high-tech medical equipment to help those specialists to make accurate diagnoses and to help them give the best currently available treatments to our patients. These include MRI scan, 64-slice CT scan, OCT scan (for retinal tomography), PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System) and completely electronic patient record.

On top of that, to create more convenience and a comfortable atmosphere for our customers, the area of Bangkok Hospital Pattaya was expanded from 5 to 9 acres (or 20,800 square meters to 36,800 square meters) and since November 2006 a new 15 storey building was added to the original complex.

Not only our hospital changed, but also Pattaya is continuously changing for the better, more and more becoming a world renowned family tourist destination and preferred “retirement destination”.

A large number of international tourists visit this city each year (40 percent of total number of all our patients). The hospital provides interpreters covering more than 20 different languages to assist patients in all matters covering communication with the medical personnel, health insurance translations, and embassy liaison and also referral services. The hospital also has cultural and language training courses for the staff make sure they understand the cultural differences and develop their language skills to provide the best service for the international patients. Of course, we also service Thai patients who are equally important for us, with the same standards and medical technology.

Bangkok Hospital Pattaya was certified ISO 9002 in 1997 (and now the certificate has been updated to ISO 9001 2000), and in the same year, the hospital was officially recognized as the best provider of goods and services, in the field of businesses serving high numbers of foreign customers. Bangkok Hospital Pattaya is only the third hospital that has been awarded this accolade. As the continuous development of the hospital continues, in 2004 the hospital was provide to the patients, Bangkok Hospital Pattaya has been given the best Hospital Management Asia Awards, The HMA Awards, for 3 consecutive years: 2004, 2005 and 2006.
