Site & Medical Services
The hospital is located in the heart of Bangkok, Thailand. Bumrungrad is a "one-stop" center for medical services – especially for surgery procedures, and features 554 beds, 33 specialty centers, and more than 1,000 doctors representing virtually all specialties and sub-specialties of medicine. Dental, general and specialty medicine, advanced diagnostics and therapeutics, surgical services, intensive care, and rehabilitation are available in these modern and efficient medical facilities.
Foreigners using Bumrungrad facilities are warned that they loose all their rights at international law, as the hospital rigidly insists any complaints are only submitted in Thailand under Thai laws. ( ref: www.bumrungrad.com/en/hospital-faq q.4. )
The United States Peace Corps uses Bumrungrad as one of their main hospitals to send Peace Corps Volunteers for medical procedures. It is also used as the hospital for Peace Corps Volunteers medical evacuations in the Europe, Mediterranean, and Asia (EMA) region.

Famous quotes containing the words site, medical and/or services:
“I am not aware that any man has ever built on the spot which I occupy. Deliver me from a city built on the site of a more ancient city, whose materials are ruins, whose gardens cemeteries. The soil is blanched and accursed there, and before that becomes necessary the earth itself will be destroyed.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“There may perhaps be a new generation of doctors horrified by lacerations, infections, women who have douched with kitchen cleanser. What an irony it would be if fanatics continued to kill and yet it was the apathy and silence of the medical profession that most wounded the ability to provide what is, after all, a medical procedure.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
“A good marriage ... is a sweet association in life: full of constancy, trust, and an infinite number of useful and solid services and mutual obligations.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
