We all go about our lives functioning in the same way, day in day out, completely worry free. Both mentally and physically our bodies operate on demand without question or issue. This is true for the vast majority of the population. However, the human body is also very good at masking health issues that will at some point need to be addressed.
Lifestyle, age, and the unpredicted, can all have a bearing on our underlining health. In most cases we are unaware of the health problems that we are harboring. If only we could be aware of any silent problems before they become a significant issue. Fortunately, it is possible with Samitivej Hospital’s Wellness Center in Thailand.
More and more people are becoming aware of their personal health and are taking responsibility for ensuring their own wellbeing. The rise in the number of people adopting a desire to preserve their health can be largely attributed to our 21st century access to modern media, and the information it provides us with.
In addition to personal awareness, there is an ever-booming demand from corporate sector. More and more companies and government organizations are demanding that employees and for those seeking permits and licenses to be able to show required levels of fitness. This not only helps to ensure personal and public safety, but also helps to increase efficiency.
However, this easy access to information must be treated with caution. Sadly, across the multitude of media platforms open to us all, there is an awful lot of false information given out. Additionally, in the area of medical health issues, given data needs to be interpreted precisely for each individual. Sound and genuine information can be misinterpreted by those without the given expertise necessary to do so.
Professional Health Check
It is reasonable to accept that most professional medical facilities will offer medical check-ups to all. The majority of these checks are verry generalized and do not give the full picture of an individual’s health condition. The very best of health checks either give a detailed picture of a person’s entire health condition or are tailored to specific areas of potential problems.
Entire and detailed body and mind check-ups, as well as specifically aimed check-ups, are not so plentifully offered. Of those that are available, the very best of the bunch is the Wellness Center in Thailand, as part of the Samitivej Hospital group. The offering of health check options at the Wellness Center is now unequaled within the kingdom.
Health Check-Ups at the Wellness Center
Driving licenses, travel visas and work permits all require varying levels of health clearance. With accredited doctors, the Wellness Center caters for all of the health certificates a person may need, whilst here in the kingdom, or for when travelling abroad.
Life insurance is becoming ever more popular for the local population and has been with the expat community for many years. All life insurance policies require a medical assessment which must be carried out by an accredited physician. The Wellness Center provides this service to all with professionalism and efficiency.
In addition to corporate and governmental employee medical check-ups, pre-school medicals are also undertaken at the Wellness Center. It is common sense for us to ensure the health of our precious offspring at all times throughout their lives, thus pre-school health checks are essential. Done so collectively helps to ensure the health of all school age children.
There is no denying that men and women are very different in many ways. With this in mind, health check packages are offered by the Wellness Center that reflect the physical differences between the genders. Individually tailored health check-ups are vital in obtaining an accurate picture of a person’s health.
It is equally true that race and ethnic origin can affect a person’s propensity towards particular health issues. The highly trained physicians at the Wellness Center are acutely aware of these nuances and conduct all health checks with this in mind.
Couples proposing to marry and start a family are becoming increasingly aware of the importance of, and their responsibility towards, good health prior to embarking on a lifelong commitment. The Wellness Center offers confidential pre-marital health check-ups to all couples, indigenous, expat and for visitors from abroad.
Wellness Center Vaccination Programs.
At the Wellness Center, as with all of Samitivej Hospitals centers and clinics, prevention is always viewed as being better than a cure. And so, the center has a comprehensive preventative vaccination program.
Vaccinations against influenza, annually, are always advisable, and very common, as are those for chickenpox, measles, mumps and tetanus. Following a personalized consultation a client may require other vaccinations that are more specific to their lifestyle or particular circumstance.
Although not exclusively, these vaccinations may include those for defense against meningococcal disease, tuberculosis, smallpox, pneumonia, diphtheria, Pertussis, or whooping cough and rabies. Mosquito borne diseases are becoming more common place, and the Wellness Center offers vaccines as defense for malaria, dengue fever and chikungunya.
As part of the Wellness Center’s program of preventative medicine, screening for potential health issues is offered. Blood testing can provide the doctors with vital information in ascertaining a client’s overall level of health, not only their ABO blood type. A CBC, or complete blood count will help to detect any underlying medical issues.
Checking of vision, hearing and dental health is routine at the Wellness Center with these areas of a client’s health given equal level of care, screening, and diagnostics. Technology plays a vital part in dedicated examination suits, aiding in creating a detailed picture of a client’s level of wellbeing in these often taken for granted elements of personal health.
Hemoglobin, or HB typing, can be undertaken to detect any abnormal hemoglobin which can lead to a vast number of health issues including sickle cell disease, or SCD, thalassemia and polycythemia, which can be fatal. The center cam also test screen for Human Immunodeficiency Virus, more commonly referred to as HIV.

Total health solutions are offered at the Wellness Center, nothing is left to chance and every detail matters, this mantra runs through every part of the center. The facility is staffed by only the most highly, internationally trained doctors and nurses dedicated to both preventative medicine and curative healthcare.
From its private, and women specific, examination suites, to the state-of the-art equipment and laboratorial facilities, and of course the welcoming, stress-free ambiance of the Wellness Center, have made it an unequaled facility in the field of health screening, preventative medicine, and diagnostics.
