Overview

Buriram Ram Hospital is a private hospital in Chum Het Subdistrict, on the Buriram–Phutthaisong Road just outside the city centre. It was founded by a group of doctors, business figures and prominent local citizens who saw the need for a modern private facility to ease pressure on the public hospital system, registering as a limited company with Board of Investment (BOI) investment promotion and beginning service on 15 February 1992 under the name "Buriram Private Hospital" — the province's first private hospital. It originally operated from a five-storey building on roughly 6 rai of land, adding a second, seven-storey building in 1996. In 2018 it became a network hospital of the Ramkhamhaeng Hospital Group, a group of private hospitals, and was renamed Buriram Ram Hospital. It now operates 90 beds, including a dedicated 32-bed hemodialysis centre supporting more than 2,500 dialysis sessions a month, making it a significant regional option for kidney-dialysis patients as well as day-to-day and urgent private care.

International patient services

As the default private option for foreigners in a small Isaan provincial capital, Buriram Ram Hospital offers shorter waits and comparatively more English-language capability than the public Buriram Hospital, though English support and international-insurer direct billing are more limited than in Thailand's major expat hubs. Confirm current English-language capability and insurance partnerships directly with the hospital before relying on it for anything serious.

05

Location & transport

The hospital sits on the Buriram–Phutthaisong Road in Chum Het Subdistrict, a short drive from downtown Buriram. Buriram has no rail transit within the city itself; most patients arrive by car, motorbike taxi, songthaew or Grab.
