In Thailand, medical services for foreigners are “private” – we have to pay. So buying medical insurance may be wise.
If you get sick, ask at Reception in your hotel for directions to the nearest pharmacy.
The pharmacy near your tourist hotel will have an English-speaking employee. You will be sold treatment or advised to go to the nearest doctor or hospital, as appropriate. Your taxi driver will be given instructions if necessary.
The hospitals in popular tourist areas are far superior to our sad NHS ones.
Ambulance services are provided by sundry independent private companies, which have to be paid separately.
I have written an 8-page newbies guide to the Bangkok red light district. You may find something interesting in it. Let me know if you would like a copy.

"We will be in pattaya from Saturday 1st of March for 2 weeks. "
Damn, it's a shame I'm out of your age range, but I guess I'm out of most people's age range  .
Have a wonderful time, you never know, we may bump into each other on Soi Buakhao. |

I am sure we will still have a great time! And as our friends have said they will be the ones needing the phrase book to understand us |

Never had a problem with Russians. Don't see why it's a massive issue with them being there as well. |

That's why the Thais are trying to shut down all their illegal operations there..... they are realising now that giving them special visa status was a big mistake |

They only illegal thing we are getting involved with will be vaping lol. As far as there being Russians in Phuket, it's not gonna effect our holiday I'm sure. And to be fair, some Russians are hot lol |

There isn’t a Russian Embassy in Phuket , there is a Russian Consulate office just as there is a British Consulate Office. Strange how you think it’s ok us Brits to come and live in Thailand but Russians shouldn’t be welcome here. Sense of British entitlement I guess. Let’s get back to Imperial past . We could show the Thai Government how to run their own country I’m sure! Not  |

I feel privileged to live in the beautiful Kingdom and my work means I travel around it extensively. I think if you strayed further than your soi, you would find that the The Land of Smiles is ill at ease with any disrespect and law breaking from visitors. Two countries are causing the bulk of this trouble for the locals.....both countries with ongoing wars |

It would be interesting to know your solution to the problems you allege given the TAT are actively encouraging Russian Tourism even sending delegates to Moscow and St Petersburg to promote Thailand, as is the Thai Govt by introducing bi lateral visa exemptions with Russia. Having lived here nearly 20 years it is clear 90% of the problems are endemic caused largely by official corruption and local/ national mafias. Maybe you are blind to it on your gulf island paradise. |
