medical hospital in thailand

Bangkok Phuket Hospital began its construction in July 1993. The hospital is a joint venture between Bangkok Dusit Medical Services Plc.(BDMS), Anuphas & Sons Co., Ltd. and a group of local investors. The total investment at the time was 800 million Baht.


Bangkok Phuket Hospital is the part of BGH group with 15 hospitals and 1 pharmacy manufacturing under its umbrella, thus sharing know how and resources within the network of hospitals and affiliated medical institutions.

Up-to-date communication facilities are installed to enable fast and efficient decision making with Bangkok General Hospital. The telemedicine installation can transmit x-ray images and patient data, including real-time cardiac monitoring, to BGH thus giving full access to other specialists for further consultation.

A hospital cannot function without doctors, nurses and technical staff. Out of our 630 persons strong staff team, BPK employs 56 full-time physicians across the spectrum of medical care and a further 75 on a consulting basis.
