Is Samitivej good for having a baby as a foreigner?

Yes — it is one of the top two maternity choices in Bangkok alongside BNH. Fixed maternity packages start around ฿80,000 for natural delivery and ฿120,000+ for C-section, including a private room. English-speaking OB-GYNs are plentiful.

Does Samitivej have a separate children's hospital?

Yes. The Samitivej Children's Hospital is a dedicated building on the same campus with its own paediatric ER open 24/7, NICU, and specialist clinics. It is the largest private children's hospital in Thailand.

Can I be seen in Japanese?

Yes — Samitivej runs a dedicated Japanese Hospital service with Japanese-speaking doctors, nurses and interpreters. It is the only hospital in Thailand certified by the Japanese Ministry of Health for overseas medical care.

Samitivej Sukhumvit Hospital

Samitivej Sukhumvit is the favourite hospital of Bangkok's Japanese, Korean and Western expat families, particularly for paediatrics and maternity. The Samitivej Children's Hospital on-site is the largest dedicated children's hospital in Thailand, and the Japanese Hospital wing provides care in Japanese with Japanese-trained doctors. JCI-accredited since 2007 and part of the BDMS group, the campus on Sukhumvit 49 sits in walking distance of Phrom Phong BTS and the major embassy belt.

Tips for Foreign Patients

Book paediatric appointments through the Samitivej Plus app — Saturdays fill up a week in advance with expat families.
Maternity packages (antenatal + delivery + postnatal) are sold as fixed-price bundles; ask for the English brochure rather than negotiating à la carte.
The international desk is on the 1st floor of Building 1 — go there first, not the general registration counter.
Free shuttle bus runs to Phrom Phong BTS exit 4 every 15 minutes during weekday office hours.
