Planning your Phuket health check-up

Tips for combining a Phuket visit with a health check-up:

  • Best time to book: early in your trip — you get your results before you leave
  • Book in advance: Bangkok Hospital Phuket executive packages fill up 3–5 days ahead in peak season (Dec–Mar)
  • Location: Patong area is most convenient for most tourists; Phuket Town has the most hospital options
  • Fasting: schedule an early morning appointment to minimise fasting disruption during your holiday
  • Results: most blood results same-day; ask for PDF copy to share with your home doctor
  • Cost vs Bangkok: comparable for basic/standard; executive packages can be 10–20% pricier due to island logistics

Phuket's private hospitals are well-prepared for international patients:

  • Language: English at all major hospitals; Bangkok Hospital Phuket has staff speaking Chinese, Russian, German
  • Payment: all major credit/debit cards, USD, EUR, and THB accepted
  • Insurance: Bangkok Hospital Phuket and PIH accept major international insurers (AXA, Allianz, Cigna, Bupa)
