Dr. Trairong Tosukhumvong

Dr. Trairong Tosukhumvong is a plastic surgeon. His principal listing is in the physician list of Bangkok Hospital Pattaya, a hospital in Banglamung, Chonburi, where the entry sits under plastic surgery and its Dermatology and Plastic Surgery Center. He also appears in the doctor directory of Samitivej Sriracha Hospital, where a part-time role is shown in its Surgery and Minimally Invasive Surgery Center.

Both directories give plastic surgery as the specialty. Neither names any operation as his, any special interest or any society membership, so none is claimed on this page. Should you already have an operation in mind, tell us in the first message, and the hospital will be asked to say whether he is the surgeon to see for it, before you book flights.

Languages named there are English and Thai. Anyone wanting to request a consultation with Dr. Trairong Tosukhumvong can use the form linked here; our coordinators pass it on, and you hold no appointment until the hospital writes back.

Bangkok Hospital Pattaya's directory records a Mahidol University Doctor of Medicine (1997) and a plastic surgery residency completed in 2003 within the Siriraj Hospital medical faculty of Mahidol University. Samitivej Sriracha's directory also mentions surgery training in Khon Kaen University's medical faculty; no date is given.

There are two caveats. The hospitals name the medical-degree school slightly differently, Mahidol University in one place and the Siriraj Faculty of Medicine in the other, and we keep each as published instead of choosing between them. The licence can be looked up on the Medical Council of Thailand's public register at checkmd.tmc.or.th, and our patient team can help you confirm it before you travel. The research methodology page describes how this kind of gap is handled.

Two present-day roles appear in official hospital listings:

• Plastic surgeon at Bangkok Hospital Pattaya's Dermatology and Plastic Surgery Center. The center's plastic surgery clinic is on the second floor of D building, and the centre lists itself as open seven days, from 8 am until 5 pm. Those are the center's hours rather than a statement of when he is in clinic.
• Part-time doctor at Samitivej Sriracha Hospital's Surgery and Minimally Invasive Surgery Center. The entry gives Sunday, 10:00 to 12:00.

No start date is published for either role, and nothing we read states his years in practice, so we give no such figure. Timetables are revised from time to time; the patient team checks the actual day and location with the hospital whenever a request is placed.

No official page we opened names a particular operation for him, which is why this profile links to no procedure page.

What can be said concerns the hospital's center. Its published service list includes alar base reduction, blepharoplasty, breast augmentation, breast lift, breast reduction, facelift, liposuction and tummy tuck, as well as skin cancer surgery and hair transplantation done by FUE. This describes the department; it cannot be read as an assignment of any one operation to him.

When one of these matches your goal, name it in the request and ask who at the center would be your surgeon. Generally, plastic surgery training covers a broad field, yet the actual day-to-day case mix is something only he and the hospital can describe.

In general, the consultation is when a plastic surgeon examines you, goes through your health history, lays out realistic options and explains risks, recovery and cost. Suitability for any operation is decided in that assessment and not beforehand. Risks apply to any surgery (for instance wound infection, bleeding, unsatisfactory scars or reactions to anaesthesia); the matching procedure page covers them in general terms and the surgeon applies them to your own case.

Since his procedure areas are unpublished, one opening question is how his practice divides between operations, and which he would propose for your aim.

Other points patients often raise:

• Which operation fits my aim, and are there non-surgical alternatives?
• Which hospital will be used, and who will be in the operating team?
• Which risks matter most given my medical background?
• How is recovery paced, and how long should I stay near Pattaya before the flight home?
• Who monitors healing after I return, and what is the route if something goes wrong?

If you want background on one operation first, the pages on facelift and liposuction are examples to read before the appointment.

Overseas patients are served by an International Service Center, which says it uses interpreters in over 20 languages. Listed services: help with insurance and repatriation, hotel booking, liaison with embassies, immigration support and appointment booking before you arrive. Hospital staff are said to collect arriving patients at the airport and drive them to a nominated hotel, and a 24-hour call line lets a doctor visit your hotel room. Bed capacity is stated as 400. The street address given is Moo 6, Sukhumvit Road, kilometre 143, Banglamung district, Chonburi.

Current accreditation could not be verified in the accreditor's own database, so no status appears on this page. For Samitivej Sriracha Hospital we hold no research file as yet; ask the patient team, or the hospital itself, about its location, services and support for visitors from abroad.

Details help the hospital answer properly. Useful items:

• Age, height, weight and the part of the body you wish to discuss
• Up-to-date, well-lit photographs taken from the angles we specify
• Medical history, regular medicines, allergies and earlier operations
• Smoking status, plus conditions such as diabetes or clotting disorders
• The period when you could be in Thailand
