Overview
Ubonrak Thonburi Hospital, on Buraphanai Road in central Ubon Ratchathani, is a private hospital established in 1991 and officially opened on 10 May 1995, operating with roughly 100 inpatient beds on about 15 rai of land and employing around 500 staff, as an associate company of the Thonburi Healthcare Group (THG), a network of more than 20 hospitals across Thailand. It holds Thailand's Hospital Accreditation (HA) and is certified by the American Accreditation Commission International (AACI) for quality and patient safety, with AACI Clinical Excellence recognition in three specific areas -- stroke care, gastrointestinal endoscopy, and maternal & neonatal health -- distinct from the JCI (Joint Commission International) accreditation held by some larger private hospitals elsewhere in Thailand, which Ubonrak Thonburi does not carry. It covers a broad range of departments including cardiology, neurology, oncology, orthopedics, maternal and child health, ophthalmology, ENT, physical therapy, dialysis and minimally invasive surgery, and maintains delivery rooms and a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Diagnostic and treatment facilities include MRI, CT, DEXA bone-density scanning, digital mammography, a cardiac catheterization lab (Cath Lab), colposcopy for cervical screening, and high-magnification operating microscopes; the hospital has also installed a linear accelerator (LINAC) and CT simulator for radiotherapy, scheduled to begin operating in 2026, which would put cancer treatment within the province rather than requiring a trip to Bangkok. Staff are generally regarded as strong English speakers, making it a common default choice for foreign residents needing day-to-day or urgent private care, with direct billing available to a number of international insurers. For the province's public alternative, see Sappasitthiprasong Hospital.
