Decision Time
So you are sure you want to undergo
Breast Implants and you want to do this in Thailand. There are many hospitals
and clinics in Bangkok and other cities in Thailand who offer this
procedure. Some very expensive, some less expensive and some cheap
(avoid these at all costs) Now search for these medical facilities. Most
advertise on the internet. If you have problems finding them send me an
email. Bangkok Companies is not a medical tourism company. We cannot arrange
your hospital stay or arrange your treatment. What we can offer however are
two very special services. Firstly we can help you to find a good doctor
to do your procedure and secondly we can be your Bangkok Buddy to ease your
path in Bangkok and to be 'here for you' should there be problems or to help
you with arrangements if you cannot, or are in no fit position to do this.
Find a Doctor
We can offer a special service for
prospective patients. Being on the ground here in Bangkok and not being tied
down to commission fees or other incentives offered by these medical institutions we
can offer impartial advice and help you find the 'right' doctor, plastic
surgeon, hospital or clinic.
Bangkok Buddy
We have already offered this service to
executives who come to Bangkok on business. Now we have a similar system
where we can meet you and be 'here for you'. Whether you take up the services of a medical
tourism company or go direct to the hospital or clinic we can be here
for you. Hopefully everything turns out alright (usually the case) or
maybe there are complications and you need a helping hand to make further
arrangements such as contacting relatives or arranging further accommodation
for them or yourself if you need an extended stay - we can help
