Mr. Ratthapong Amphanwong, Assistant Executive Chairman of Bangkok Group 1 and Director of Bangkok International Hospital, said that with their vision and commitment to medical excellence, especially in continuous treatment of bone and brain diseases, they have gained trust from both Thai and foreign patients who believe in their capabilities. This is reflected in significant growth in their Expat service group and among those prioritizing exercise at the Bangkok Sports and Exercise Medicine Center (BASEM).
Moreover, with the aging population increasing, they have found that falls among the elderly are not just bone fracture issues but signals of neurological system disorders affecting body movement control. The hospital focuses on identifying the true causes, whether osteoporosis, bone thinning, brain degeneration, or neurological diseases, to plan treatment and prevent future falls and fractures. Specialists in bones and brain ensure patients can move confidently.
Data from Bangkok International Hospital shows many patients had prior bone surgeries elsewhere that resulted in unsatisfactory outcomes, incomplete function, complications, or rapid material deterioration, necessitating corrective surgeries at their facility. Many travel from abroad for treatment with their experienced doctors and prompt service. These insights led to the launch of the new Revision Services.
"This is a key opportunity to expand our client base domestically and internationally, increasing growth and patient proportions in the future. We can meet patients' needs for surgeries performed by expert specialists using modern technology, as well as prevention and personalized bone care planning to strengthen patients’ bones and improve quality of life," he said.
The core of Revision Services is differentiating care by providing sustainable quality of life beyond merely curing illness, Mr. Ratthapong added. What sets them apart is their team of over 95 highly skilled bone and joint specialists across all fields, including both resident and consulting doctors, to ensure comprehensive patient care.
They provide effective, comprehensive care 24/7, supported by modern technology and equipment, an experienced multidisciplinary team, specialty centers in Access Center format, and personal nurses (Case Managers) offering full personalized patient services (One-Stop Service).
These services include appointment scheduling, information provision, cost assessment, and monitoring before and after surgery. Patient satisfaction surveys show a 97% satisfaction rate. Furthermore, the hospital aims to elevate private orthopedic specialty care in Thailand.
Their focus extends beyond treating fractures to preventing initial bone fractures through managing Metabolic Bone Disease (MBD), addressing osteoporosis or bone thinning, treating complex diseases, and rehabilitation to maintain bone function long-term. This builds patient confidence, quality of life, and secure living at all ages.
Bangkok International Hospital’s new Revision Services manage all complex bone cases, including wrist, ankle, fracture accidents, spine, knee, and hip joints, with specialized doctors and experienced multidisciplinary teams. Using advanced technology and personalized treatment plans, they aim to restore patients’ quality of life by reducing repeat surgeries and improving mobility.
Dr. Chaidej Sarasomboon, Assistant Medical Director of CoE Orthopedics and spine specialist at Bangkok International Hospital, explained that Failed Back Surgery Syndrome (FBSS) refers to persistent or recurring back or leg pain after spine surgery. It causes pain, numbness, and weakness, complicating daily life. Patients with recurrent herniated discs, degenerative discs, non-union of bones, hardware issues, or recurrent problems face life limitations.
Spine Revision Services were developed to resolve issues from the initial surgery, with expert doctors and advanced technology helping patients overcome pain and regain confidence. They believe successful treatment restores patients’ confidence and quality of life.
Dr. Watchara Phiphopmongkol, Director of the Bone and Joint Center and orthopedic surgeon at Bangkok International Hospital, said Orthopedic Revision Services address problems from prior surgeries affecting patients’ bodies and lives, such as scar tissue, bone loss, incomplete healing, or conditions disrupting daily activities.
Their strength lies in a specialist surgical team capable of repairing and treating all complex cases using modern tools and technology, resulting in less pain, faster recovery, and reduced need for repeat surgeries. They are well-prepared for complex cases like periarticular fractures, pelvic fractures, non-union or malunion fractures, hand and arm repairs, foot and ankle surgeries requiring advanced techniques, and repeated tendon repairs, minimizing complications and enabling full recovery.
Dr. Phanuwat Silawatchanainai, hip and knee specialist at the Hip and Knee Center, Bangkok International Hospital, noted that revision surgeries carry higher risks than initial operations. Their Hip and Knee Revision Services focus on treating repeated hip prosthesis dislocations, instability, infections around implants, peri-implant fractures, and loosening or wear of prostheses.
With their Safety-First Revision Care standards, they meticulously plan every step before surgery with personalized treatment plans to minimize risks. Post-operative care and rehabilitation are closely monitored to ensure not just successful surgery but also satisfactory outcomes and patient safety.
