Phuket - Throat exam needed

Tyfon · #1 13-08-2005, 12:17

Almost predictably my 2-year running sore throat has flared up again. Can anyone recommend a good Patong/Phuket Town throat specialist I can go to for a thorough exam while in Patong next week? Phuket-Bangkok Hospital doesn't even list otolaryngology as a specialism (they also mis-spell ophthalmology - not a good sign

).

I am fluent in english medic-speak, but would be lost in thai and would not like to work through an interpreter as I want to give a detailed history directly and discuss findngs in-depth (I'm a bit rough on doctors; make 'em work for a living

)

Cheers,

K.

Heh, I've visited Doc Porn Wattana in July 2004 for bad ear, sorted it out brilliant, only went there cos he had funny name, but they do speak english okay, I think anyway, cos couldn't hear what they were saying.

If it were an STD infection I would go and see Dr Porn on beach road

(It's not though

)
