When Bangkok Hospital Pattaya was founded in 1990 it had only 100 beds. 10 years later, a new building for a specialised clinic with further 200 beds was built to provide care for the large number of patients with special and complicated medical necessities which frequented it. Nowadays Bangkok Hospital Pattaya is a 400 beds facility which has become the centre of specialty healthcare providing special diagnostic and curative services, such as The Heart Centre, equipped with special diagnostic instrument to help analysing heart disease including coronary artery angiograms detecting blocked arteries around the heart and even carry out coronary bypass surgery without using the artificial heart/lung machine. This hospital is the first in the Thai Eastern Region with such technologies. Further, this hospital offers the services of its Brain Centre, Emergency Medical Services Centre, and Beauty Centre.
With its strive for excellence this hospital recruited more than 90 specialists and has invested in modern high-tech medical equipment to provide diagnosis and treatments more accurately, such as MRI 64 Slice CT, PACs system (Pictures Archive Communication System) and similar. This hospital is now known as the most highly advanced in the Thai Eastern Region.
