What are healthcare services like in Koh Chang?

Answer this Question

We asked retirees if they have access to good medical care in Koh Chang. They wrote...

"Koh Chang, offers a range of healthcare services for both residents and tourists. The island has a government-run health clinic that provides basic medical services, including emergency care, general medicine, and minor surgeries. For more serious conditions, patients may need to travel to the mainland for treatment at larger hospitals. There are also several private clinics on the island that offer a variety of healthcare services, including dental care and physiotherapy. Pharmacies are widely available and stock a range of over-the-counter and prescription medications. However, it's important to note that while the healthcare providers are generally well-trained, English may not be their first language, which could potentially lead to communication difficulties. It's also recommended for visitors to have travel insurance that covers medical expenses, as healthcare can be expensive, particularly for more serious treatments," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Koh Chang, Thailand.
