Why Thailand?
Medical tourism is rapidly growing in Thailand. In 2005, one of the Bangkok hospitals treated 150,000 patients from abroad. In 2006, medical tourism expected 36.4 billion baht.
First reason is low cost, though the treatment is world class, cost is very affordable compared to western countries. Personal attention is the main thing attracts patients across the globe. A patient told it would cost him minimum US $100,000 as against US$ 12,000! That is the catch.

Secondly, excellent food is available to US and UK patients according to their tastes.

Thirdly, English speaking medical staff! This is very comfortable for the US and UK patients. Otherwise also there are 22 language interpreters available. No need to worry about language.

The US consular information sheet gives the Thai health care system high marks for quality, particularly facilities in Bangkok, although the World Health Organization ranks the Thai healthcare system at number 47, which is below the USA's ranking at 37 and the United Kingdom's ranking at 18.
