Here is a look at one of the rural public hospitals in my area.
I had to go to the hospital yesterday.
This hospital is utilized by the villagers.
The hospital is very clean and efficient.
Upon arriving you check in and they get you to the area you need to be going.
In most cases, you are always giving the option to see a nurse right away, who can write prescriptions or join the wait for the doctor.
In my case, the wait for the doctor was stated to be about 1 hour?
I felt at the time I did not need to see the doctor, so I opted for a nurse, who I saw in about 10 minutes.
After conferring with her, I was off to the prescription window to collect my prescriptions.
Since I am Thai, I have the 30 thb medical card.
All the prescriptions and the visit only cost me 30 thb (About US $1).
There may be a wait for doctors, depending on how many people are there ahead of you.
Overall, very efficient and pleased with my visit.
