Contact Doctor Bangtao Takecare Medical Clinic
A doctor covers Mai Khao 24 hours, every day, including public
holidays, and reaches most hotels and villas in about an hour. No appointment is needed, at any
hour.

Where the doctor comes from
To be clear about the geography, because it affects how long you wait: there is no premises on
Mai Khao itself. A branch serving the area directly is due to open. Until then the doctor
travels to you from the clinic at Cherng Talay, Thalang.
- Address: 152/1 Bandon Road, Cherng Talay, Thalang 83110
- Map: open Doctor Bangtao Takecare Medical Clinic in Google Maps
On Bandon Road in Cherng Talay, about 25 minutes by road from the Mai Khao resorts. If you would rather be seen in person than wait for a visit, that is the address to go
to, and it is open at any hour — see the nearest walk-in clinic.
What to tell us when you call
The single thing that most affects how quickly a doctor reaches you is the address. Resorts along
this coast are large, several share an access road, and villa complexes often have more than one gate.
- The resort or villa name, and the room or villa number
- Which gate or entrance, if there is more than one
- A phone number that will be answered on arrival
- Whether reception knows you are expecting a doctor
Somebody meeting the doctor at reception saves more time than anything else, particularly at night
when the main gate may be the only one open.
There is no wrong hour to call
A large share of what we are called for happens between midnight and four: fevers in children,
stomach illness that peaks when somebody finally decides they cannot keep going, cuts, and people whose
friends have become worried about them. None of it has to wait for daylight.
If you are unsure whether something is worth a call-out, call and describe it. That costs nothing and
settles the question more often than not.
What to have ready
- Passport if you have it — not required in order to be treated
- Travel insurance details, mentioned at the start of the visit rather than the end
- Any medication you already take, ideally in its box or as a photo of the box
- For a child: their age and rough weight
- For a fever: how many days it has been going on, and the highest reading so far
Payment and insurance
Cash or card, at the end of the visit. You are told the cost — including the call-out — before
treatment begins rather than after it. Every visit can produce an itemised receipt and an English
medical report, which between them satisfy most travel insurers — see
travel insurance claims.
Ask for the paperwork while the doctor is still with you. Insurers routinely want documents that are
far harder to obtain once you have flown home.
If it is an emergency
Call 1669 for the national ambulance service rather than waiting for a visit — chest
pain, breathlessness at rest, stroke symptoms, uncontrolled bleeding, a seizure, a near-drowning or
anyone who cannot be roused. See emergency medical care.
