Health and wellness in Phuket concern residents settled for the year as much as passing visitors. This section brings together points of reference on clinics and hospitals, dental and aesthetic care, spas and wellness. It is for people who want to know where to turn to get treated or to look after themselves, before they need to. The profiles below present facilities and practitioners on the island.
How do you choose a healthcare provider?
In an emergency, call the emergency services or go to the nearest hospital first. For everything else, take the time to compare: the specialities offered, the languages spoken, how appointments are made and whether your insurance covers the care. Ask for a quote before any non-urgent treatment. The articles in the section explain what to expect, but they never replace the advice of a doctor. Keep your receipts for any claim with your insurer. Write down the questions you want to ask before the appointment.
