Overview

Yanhee Hospital opened in 1984 as a small outpatient clinic — Yanhee Polyclinic — founded by Dr. Supot Sumritvanitcha, and was named after the nearby Yanhee (Bhumibol) power substation used as a local landmark at the time. It has since grown into a 15-storey, 400-bed private general hospital on Charan Sanitwong Road in Bangkok's Bang Phlat district, staffed by roughly 150 full-time doctors, 120 part-time specialists and around 800 nurses across 95 outpatient exam rooms, 12 major and 30 minor operating theatres, and an 18-bed intensive care unit. BAANLYY is not affiliated with Yanhee and takes no paid placement in this guide; all figures should be confirmed directly with the hospital before relying on them.

Specialties & departments

Yanhee is Thailand's best-known private hospital for cosmetic and reconstructive plastic surgery, and its own site highlights:

The hospital operates numerous additional medical and cosmetic departments; see its own Centers page for the current full list, since BAANLYY does not itemise departments it cannot independently verify.

04

Services for international patients

Yanhee has one of Thailand's longest-established international-patient departments, built around its cosmetic-surgery and medical-tourism volume — the hospital's own materials describe tens of thousands of international patients a year from well over 100 countries, with multilingual staff and dedicated case managers. Exact patient-volume and language-coverage figures vary between the hospital's own marketing and third-party medical-tourism sites, so confirm current numbers and services directly with Yanhee's international patient department before booking.

05

Location & transport

Yanhee sits on Charan Sanitwong Road in Bang Phlat district, on the Thonburi (west) side of the Chao Phraya river — a mixed residential and commercial area rather than one of Bangkok's dense condo-and-expat neighbourhoods. The nearest station is Bang O on the MRT Blue Line, roughly a 2-minute walk from Exit 1 or 4 to the main hospital building, making it a straightforward cross-town trip from most of central Bangkok without needing a car.

FAQ

Is Yanhee Hospital JCI-accredited?

Yes. Yanhee has held Joint Commission International (JCI) accreditation since 22 January 2011 and has consistently passed its triennial re-accreditation reviews since then, according to the hospital's own JCI Accreditation page. It also holds Hospital Accreditation (HA) from Thailand's Ministry of Public Health.

What is Yanhee Hospital best known for?

Yanhee is Thailand's largest and best-known private hospital for cosmetic and reconstructive plastic surgery, with a team of board-certified plastic surgeons and a dedicated weight-loss/bariatric surgery centre. It also operates as a full general hospital across 36 treatment centres, seeing roughly 2,000 outpatients a day, so it is not exclusively a cosmetic-surgery clinic.

How do I get to Yanhee Hospital?

Yanhee sits on Charan Sanitwong Road in Bang Phlat district on the Thonburi (west) side of the Chao Phraya river. The nearest station is Bang O on the MRT Blue Line — leave via Exit 1 or 4 for roughly a 2-minute walk to the main hospital building.

Does Yanhee Hospital treat international patients for general medical care, not just cosmetic surgery?

Yes. While Yanhee is best known internationally for cosmetic and weight-loss procedures, it is licensed and staffed as a 400-bed general hospital with emergency care, an 18-bed ICU, and 36 treatment centres covering general medicine as well as cosmetics — figures and country counts vary slightly by source, so confirm current details directly with the hospital's international patient department.

Hospital facts are drawn from Yanhee's own official website plus an independent Wikipedia cross-check; JCI accreditation is stated only where confirmed on the hospital's own accreditation page. BAANLYY is a data-and-tools platform, not a hospital, insurer or booking agent; never takes paid placement in this content, and does not guarantee prices, wait times or accreditation status — always confirm directly with the hospital before relying on any figure here.
