Where to go for blood tests (BKK)?

[shygye]

Colon needs to be checked.

Colon check is suggested for those over 50, every year...that's the check with the 1/2 meter flexible tube to check out Uranus (intestinal tract)...a bit expensive and if you eat a healthy diet with plenty of Thai hot and spicy food, you should be OK but yes, a check of the colon now and then is not fun but "required". Of course, YMMV.

So I went to Sukhumwit hospital today and I must say the reception was great -kinda like stepping into a hostess bar (I had nurses all over me!). They were however unable to run even half of the blood work I requested (not able to test blood hormone levels and so on) and I was recommended to try elsewhere.

 

Will hit Bumrungrad tomorrow morning.

might help to call ahead for specifics, but at least you seemed to enjoy the visit
