sdrealtor, I agree on your friend’s take of the Thai health system. It’s not much different than in USA.
My dad gets shuffled between specialist after specialist at UCSD Health. So much for broad knowledge. I’m sure the doctors have knowledge but the system encourages the use of specialists when none are needed.
I know Thailand very well as I go there at least once a year. I plan to retire there. The rental income of one property in USA will allow me to live an upper-class life in Thailand.
To and from Thailand I’ve traveled all over Asia.
I plan to avail myself of the Thai health care system when needed, such as facelift and droopy eyelid surgery and dental implants so that I don’t look like an ugly American geezer in my old age.
My bro is a maxilofacial surgeon right here, and he’s very expensive. Even his friends and family discount rates are too high. Why should I pay when I can get great service for cheap in Thailand and still have money left over for a nice tropical vacation?
Other than elective medical services in Thailand, I plan to come back to America yearly to use Medicare. If Medicare were smart and wanted to cut costs, they would pay for services in cheaper foreign locations.

Sounds like we have alot in common. My bro is an opthalmologist for Kaiser in Oahu and his wife is Thai. He will likely retire there also on p/t basis in a couple years.Just one more comment about living as a foreigner there from someone that has for more than 10 years. My friend is actually planning on moving back after 10 years. Although he loves much about it, there isnt much to do there. He said most of the ex-pats there are people running away from something and not people he wants to socialize with.
