The special guest speaker at the Pattaya City Expats
Club on Sunday May 7 will be the deputy director of Bangkok Pattaya
Hospital, Hakadan Bhongsateern. He will be bringing along a panel of experts
to answer questions on all aspects of the work at the hospital, its expansion
and new building programme to increase the size of the in-patient capacity and
its increased numbers of foreign patients coming specifically for operations
and cosmetic surgery whilst here on vacation. It is hoped that there will be
provisions for everyone to have a blood sugar and blood pressure test before
