What are healthcare services like in Krabi?

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

"Healthcare services in Krabi are generally of a good standard, especially in the larger towns and cities. There are several hospitals and clinics in the area, including both public and private facilities. The public hospitals provide affordable care, but may not offer the same level of comfort and service as private hospitals. Private hospitals, on the other hand, offer high-quality care with English-speaking staff, but can be quite expensive. Many of the doctors and nurses in Krabi have been trained overseas and are able to provide a wide range of medical services. Pharmacies are also widely available and stock a good range of medication, often without the need for a prescription. However, for more serious or complex medical issues, patients may need to travel to larger cities such as Bangkok. Healthcare in Krabi also includes traditional Thai medicine and massage, which are popular with both locals and tourists. Dental care is also readily available, with many people traveling to Thailand specifically for dental tourism due to the high quality and affordable prices. Despite the generally good standard of healthcare, it's recommended that visitors to Krabi have comprehensive travel insurance that covers medical expenses, as medical costs can be high, particularly in private hospitals. It's also recommended to get any necessary vaccinations before traveling to Krabi, as some diseases like dengue fever and malaria are present in the region," said a member in Krabi, Thailand.
