TESTIMONIALS
WHAT PATIENTS SAY
———————-
From the start to the finish of my admission, the staff were responsive, attentive, polite, and efficient. The doctor made sure that the desired result was achieved. The nursing staff are exceptionally skilled and they played the most important role in my recovery. The meals were delicious and flavorful. I will recommend Yanhee to others.
I found my experience throughout my time in Yanhee Hospital to be professional and efficient. Dr. Thawatchai explained the procedures. The International interpreter was excellent. She smoothed my experience and helped me feel comfortable. The nursing staff were professional. The highlight of my stay was a trip to the salon to have my hair washed and dried, after which I felt more human.
An open rhinoplasty surgery gone wrong left me with a bulbous nose tip, uneven nostrils, and a hanging columella which is why I took to Yanhee International Hospital to have my nose restored to its former glory. Safe to say Yanhee International Hospital did not disappoint. I was in the care of a fantastic doctor. A big thank you & lots of hugs to the amazing English-speaking nurses & staff. I could really tell that you are passionate about what you do! Lots of Love…
Doctor Thawatchai and every person that I met in my visit to Yanhee International Hospital were caring, professional, and the attention to detail was amazing. The hospital is first-class, spotlessly clean, and hygienic. I would highly recommend Dr. Tawatchai and Yanhee Hospital if you are considering surgery.
Dr. Thawatchai was truly amazing. He made me feel so at ease during the consultation and the entire process. His advice and abilities made me confident about the procedure and I am pleased with the results. I would recommend him to anyone unsure and wanting rhinoplasty with a western nose.
The nursing staff is incredible! They made my stay super comfortable and have taken such good care of me. The post op care was better than I could have hoped. Thank you Yanhee!
The hospital staff were very friendly & professional. I had spent a long time deciding on the hospital to have my surgery done but I am glad I chose Yanhee. The surgery was expensive but I still feel it was worth the price. I would certainly recommend this hospital to anyone, especially as the staff are genuinely good people. I am yet to see the final result of my rhinoplasty but from what I can see so far, the results look promising.
I want to give a special thanks to the nurse who went to 7/11 to get me more food after I was still hungry from dinner. I really appreciate it.
I have found everyone here to be very nice and caring. I would come again, and the food is really good and a lot to pick from. The room is a really good size and kept very clean.
Only one downfall was the Wi-Fi. It was very slow and only could use when I was in bed. I would love it if it worked by the windows so I could still see the view and show it to the family as well.
Absolutely amazing experience. Having an international section and just the whole organization, systems & structure of the way procedure was dealt with, I was very impressed. The cleanliness of the hospital was outstanding. Mr. Ming was amazing and helpful throughout my whole stay. All of the nurses were so kind and caring and Dr. Thawatchai went above and beyond operating for 6 hours to remove the capsules with minimal scarring, he didn’t have to do that, which just shows his caring, professionalism, standards, and nature. Also, I found it made me feel really trusting in my gut the fact there was no deposit to be paid overseas before any treatment, as I had other places calling and wanting a deposit quick, and I immediately felt uncomfortable so I think that was definitely one of the reasons Yanhee stood out to me. Also, the communication over email was very warm and professional and I didn’t feel rushed.
Thank you Dr. Thawatchai for making me beautiful again. 16 years since I last saw you, I will always be back if needed. You made me feel relaxed, and I didn’t feel nervous at all, as I have a lot of trust in you.
To the lovely staff, your care for me was amazing. Thank you for looking after me. To the beautiful staff that brought my meals, you are very kind; my cleaners for keeping my room clean, and asking if I need things, thank you. To everyone at Yanhee, your service and care were outstanding.
I am very happy with the service at Yanhee Hospital. All of the staff here are professional and nice. Dr. Thawatchai was very thorough, and I would highly recommend him. Thank you to all at Yanhee Hospital.
The care, respect, and professionalism shown by all staff in the hospital from the initial check-in at the hospital, consultation, surgery through to aftercare has been nothing but exceptional. The facilities themselves are first-class to match the standard of care provided.
The Doctor and nursing staff, alongside the International Liaisons staff, have been outstanding. I have been very impressed with their professionalism and care. The facilities have been great, and having your own room post-surgery has been a must.
The whole process has been made easy, especially given that this is a foreign country, and I would highly recommend Yanhee Hospital as a plastic surgery provider and destination.
This is the second time I’ve had surgery at Yanhee Hospital. After comparing many hospitals, I still chose Yanhee Hospital for a Mastectomy. The services are still great and very enthusiastic. Special thank you to P Xiao Ju and Interpreter Jane for the service, and feeling grateful to the nurse and doctor for taking care of me and making me feel comfortable. The hospital food was very delicious. If I have friends who want to do a mastectomy, I’ll suggest to them to do it here. Thank you to every staff at Yanhee Hospital. The surgical skills of Yanhee Hospital are great. After surgery, I did not feel any pain and made me want to walk immediately. Lol.
From start to finish, I have been treated in the most professional manner. Amazing surgeon and nursing staff comforted all my anxiety and fears. Highly recommended.
Outstanding hospital from first initial correspondence to warm arrival to the final stage of surgery. All staff from reception to interpreter, nurses, doctor and surgeons are beyond excellence; all caring and responsive to my needs. First-class hospital on a global scale.
Thank you very much for the professional operation of the doctor. I did not feel any pain during the whole process, and I was discharged smoothly. Special thanks to the nurses on the 9th floor–beautiful, kind, and warm, who took special care of my little baby.
I’ll be back in a year for the surgery. And I’ll introduce a lot of my friends to Yanhee Hospital.
Anyways, thanks all.
I learned about Yanhee Hospital from the ex-pat community when researching plastic surgery options in Bangkok. I agree with their recommendation after having the surgery. Dr. Thawatchai was easy to work with and listened to my needs. All the staff and nurses were caring, professional, and gave good care. I am really impressed with Yanhee and would not hesitate to return. In fact, I will recommend it to others. Yanhee Hospital is topnotch.
Excellent and professional doctors and nursing staff. The ancillary staff were also great. Many thanks to Jeremy for guiding me through the process. I would like to thank everyone at Yanhee Hospital for their caring and kindness and for making my stay so wonderful.
I planned this trip myself; the help and support were exceptional from my first contact right through to my discharge from the hospital. The nurses were fantastic and the International Liaison group visited me every day to ensure I understood my care and next steps along the way. I would have been happy to stay here at Yanhee right up until my flight home. The care was so good. Actually, for solo travellers, I believe this would be a great option if it could be accommodated by the hospital.
Good environment. Comfortable bed. All the nurses and doctors are really helpful.
Thank you to Dr. Thawatchai and all the nursing staff for their care and consideration during my stay. They were attentive and caring and made sure I was as comfortable as could be during recovery. The nurses would check on me throughout the day and night and answer the call bell promptly when I rang it. The room was clean and kept clean regularly. I am very happy with the work the surgeon performed. I would gladly recommend them for their professionalism and polite caring manners.
First, I would like to thank all the staff who treated me with all kindness and care. I came to Thailand alone and I never felt that way. I started searching and everyone advised me here.
Dr. Thawatchai – dealing with him is very easy. I did not hesitate to do the operation from the beginning consultation day. Quick to deal with, especially by email with Kay Thi and the translator Saladin. He was with me from beginning to end and treated me like his sister. The nurses are very nice and helpful. The patient relations officers are beyond amazing. They treated me with love, especially Jo Ann and Kirsten. Happy with the outcome of the operation. It is my favorite hospital and first destination.
Thank you Yanhee Hospital. You gave me a great feeling.
The whole process was very professional and easy. The nurses and staff were all extremely kind and helpful. I felt the doctor listened and gave his advice easily. I am excited to take the bandage off and see the final result.
I will definitely be back in January for my facelift. Thank you to everyone who helped me during this time. Kind regards.
Incredible service. English speaking, caring and attentive nurses. Simple but spacious, well-maintained, and fully equipped room. Great choice of food, and it’s tasty. I have nothing but positive experiences at Yanhee Hospital.
Explained everything clearly. I was happy with the international services girl who took me through everything step by step.
