Doctor Hotel Visit in Phuket
A doctor arrives at your hotel, villa or condominium with the kit to treat you there.
A doctor on duty at every hour, so a fever at dawn or a scooter graze at two in the morning does not have to wait for opening time. English-speaking, no appointment and no referral, at Bang Tao, Kata or Patong — or a doctor comes to your hotel or villa in around an hour, depending on where you are if you would rather not travel.
Message us with what has happened and we will tell you honestly whether to come in, whether it can wait until morning, or whether you should go straight to a hospital — and roughly what it will cost.
A doctor reachable every hour

Available at all three branches without an appointment, or at your accommodation.
A doctor arrives at your hotel, villa or condominium with the kit to treat you there.
Ring at any hour, describe it, and get a straight answer about whether to come in.
Plain English throughout, including what it costs, before anything is agreed.
What can be started now, and honest triage about when 1669 is the right call.
Bang Tao, Kata and Patong. No appointment, no referral, no residency questions.
The department telephoned ahead, notes sent with you, and the vehicle arranged.
For the stomach that will not hold water, the heat, and the night that went too far.
Somebody who will look at your child properly at four in the morning.
Dengue, counts, kidneys and liver, reported the same day rather than next week.
A morning of bloods and a conversation about the numbers, not an emailed spreadsheet.
Nothing explained, nothing reported, and the timing worked out so a result means something.
Hepatitis, typhoid, rabies and the tetanus booster nearly everyone is overdue.
Started the same day, whatever the hour, after any bite or scratch that broke skin.
The cleaning first, then glue, strips or sutures, and the changes afterwards.
Scalds, exhaust pipes and the sun. Twenty minutes of cool water comes first.
For the bag that went to the wrong continent. Bring a photograph of the box.
Signed, stamped, in English, with a licence number, before you leave the room.
Assessed against what a cabin actually does, not signed on request.
The ear, the stomach and the fluid balance, sorted before a fourteen-hour flight.
For landing unwell, or waking up ill three hours before departure.
Diagnosis, onset date and fitness to travel, written the way policies ask for.
The clinical report an assistance company works from, and the calls that follow.
A doctor is on duty every hour of every day, public holidays included, at all three branches. No appointment, no referral, and nothing to wait for.
Call +66 81 718 9080The illnesses and injuries a beach holiday actually produces.
Four hours after dinner and it has taken the night. Fluid, salts and an anti-emetic.
A third of visitors get it. Most need salts and patience; some need testing.
Daily platelet counts through the days that matter, and no ibuprofen at all.
A symptom with a long list behind it here. Narrowing that list down is the work.
Ninety percent humidity means sweat cools nobody. Caught early it is straightforward.
From a sachet of salts to an hour on a drip, depending on how far behind you are.
Eight degrees off the equator, and cloud stops almost none of it. Cooling, fluid, pain relief.
Blocked sweat ducts, not an allergy. Cool it, keep it dry, and stop the scratching.
Vinegar then hot water. Fresh water, sand and urine all make it worse.
Which spines come out, which are better left, and the infection that is the real risk.
Days in warm water, then agony at midnight. Drops and proper analgesia fix it fast.
Pressure that would not equalise, on a descent or at depth. The drum gets looked at.
Sandflies, mosquitoes, ticks and the centipede in the bathroom. Plus what infected looks like.
Fifteen minutes of washing, then the rabies clock. Dogs, cats and the viewpoint monkeys.
Fish sauce is in everything savoury. Adrenaline first, and never the other way round.
The most common serious thing on this island, mostly to people riding for the first time.
Not a graze. A wide open wound with tarmac in it, and the cleaning decides the outcome.
Inside of the right calf, usually the passenger. Deeper than it looks and always dirty.
Glass on a beach, a wet tiled step, coral. Cleaned properly before anything closes it.
First question is whether it is sprained at all, because pain does not tell you.
Worse here than at home, and occasionally not a hangover. Both get checked.
Light, timing and the first two days. And what it looks like when it is something else.
No appointment, no referral and no Thai residency requirement, at any of the three branches, at any hour.
There is no appointment system and no closing time to work around. That is the entire point at three in the morning, which is when a surprising share of this happens.
Prices are given before treatment rather than after. Payment at the end of the visit, cash or card, with an itemised receipt and an English medical report.
Dengue testing, full counts, kidney and liver function, taken at the branch or at your accommodation and reported the same day rather than the following week.
For anyone too unwell to travel — a vomiting child, a fever nobody has slept through — a doctor attends your hotel, villa or condominium instead, in around an hour, depending on where you are.
Where a hospital is needed we stabilise you first, call the receiving department ahead, and arrange the ambulance rather than leaving you to find one.
The receipt and English report are the two documents almost every travel insurer asks for. Ask at the start of the visit, not after you have flown home.
Use whichever branch is nearest — they keep the same hours and carry the same equipment, so the only thing worth weighing is the traffic. If travelling at all is the problem, ask for a doctor hotel visit instead. For anything a clinic cannot handle, see hospital transfer and referral.
Part of the Takecare Clinic group network in Phuket, Krabi and Chon Buri. The group's clinics share doctors, records and treatment plans, so care started here continues elsewhere without repetition.
