Orthopedic Bone and Joint Center of Excellence
Treatment for Bone Cancer, Bone Spurs, Bone Disease & Infection
Bones and joints are the foundation of an active life. A bone
fracture, bone pain, disease, infection or joint
disorder caused
by athletics, exercise, accidents or aging directly affects your
quality of life. Prevention is best but sometimes a person needs
help from an orthopedic doctor or orthopedic surgeon.
Bone
cancer, bone spurs, bone disease or infection can strike persons
of any lifestyle or age. If you are concerned about a possible
bone cancer symptom, degenerative joint disease or any other
bone or joint disorder, come see an American Board-certified
orthopedic physician for an orthopedic physical assessment,
perhaps including a bone scan or bone density test.
Reducing risk and increasing the odds of a full, speedy recovery
begin with choosing an orthopedic doctor and hospital for joint
disease you can trust –- and afford. The Bone and Joint
Institute Center of Excellence at Piyavate Hospital
International Health Care Services Facility in Bangkok is
world-class, equipped with new medical technology, and provides
health care services as good as that of Europe & the USA at a
fraction of the cost.
The
doctors of our international hospital are American Board and
Thai Board-certified orthopedic physicans assisted by qualified
and experienced registered nurses. They are supported by our
friendly, caring and diligent administrative personnel and team
of technicians who maintain our new medical technology.
Women's Health Care Services Provider “The Perfect Woman
Institute”
The
Perfect Woman Institute is a women’s health care provider
established to give women in Thailand affordable health care
services by world-class women’s health specialists using
state-of-the-art medical technology — especially advanced
surgical technology and medical diagnostic imaging.
Although this ultra-modern Piyavate Hospital Center of
Excellence women’s health care facility is popularly known as a
fertility clinic, it actually provides at a single location the
full-range of physical exams, medical diagnosis, checkups,
medical imaging and treatment for women of all ages, ranging
from infertility treatment to hormone replacement therapy and
breast cancer treatment. Whatever health care services you need,
whatever major or minor medical condition you may have, the
doctors and medical specialists of the Perfect Woman Institute
can help.
For
couples affected by male infertility or female infertility, the
physicians of our fertility clinic often propose “blastocyst
culture”. Blastocyst culture is currently the most advanced
infertility treatment available anywhere.
Patients with tubal blockage, severe pelvic adhesion,
endometriosis, male infertility or unexplained infertility are
good candidates for this infertility treatment. A fertility
specialist uses in vitro fertilization (also called blastocyst
ivf or external fertilization) followed by embryo culture for 5
to 6 days until it reaches the blastocyst stage. The
mother-to-be is then prepared for blastocyst transfer to the
womb. Blastocyst implantation in the uterine wall is done by the
infertility doctor and the pregnancy begins.
Preimplantation Genetics Diagnosis (PGD) is an advanced
technique we use to analyze the genes and chromosomes of the
embryo before blastocyst implantation to determine which embryo
is the best and ensure it's completely normal. At the blastocyst
stage, the embryo has developed two types of cells – fetal cells
and placental cells. The infertility specialist does a
“Blastocyst Biopsy” which microscopically removes some placental
cells from the blastocyst while leaving the fetal cells
undisturbed. The biopsy placental cells will be stained with
specific-color gene probes to make the diagnosis and the best,
normal embryo will be selected for blastocyst implantation.
Women over 35 years old are good candidates for this treatment
because they are at greater risk of recurrent pregnancy loss,
unexplained in vitro fertilization failure, transmission of
X-linked or single gene disorders and having children with
chromosome disorders or chromosome abnormality resulting in
birth defects such as Down Syndrome.
Laparoscopic Surgery, Gynecologist Services & Hormonal Therapy
The
Institute provides early cancer detection, physical exams,
checkups, and other general women's health care services such as
hormonal therapy and surgery. About 90% of commonly performed
gynecologic surgeries can now be done with minimally invasive
techniques such as laparoscopic surgery. This type of surgery
causes significantly less post-operative pain, allows quicker
healing and a faster return to normal activities.
If
you experience hormonal imbalance symptoms, hormone replacement
therapy can effectively improve your quality of life. Hormonal
balance therapy can prolong youth, strengthen your body and
fight aging. It is especially helpful for middle-aged women,
elderly women, and women suffering from acute symptoms of
menopause, such as hot flashes, night sweats, insomnia,
increased fatigue and irritability, depression, hormonal skin
disorders, vaginal dryness and incontinence. Hormone replacement
therapy also provides some long-term protection against
cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis and colon cancer.
Our
highly qualified doctors and well-trained nurses welcome the
opportunity to provide you with warm, heartfelt care. Let us
help you create a secure and healthy foundation for you and your
family.

Oncology & Gene Therapy Cancer Treatment
Cancer Treatment for Prostate, Breast & Lung Cancer
Cancer does not show symptoms immediately. In the early stages
of cancer, those who have it may be unaware, particularly those
with colon cancer, ovarian cancer, cervical cancer or pancreatic
cancer.
The
human body is comprised of billions of cells, each with over
60,000 genes. Each gene has its own function but only 2,000 of
them (3%) are understood. When a gene malfunctions or mutates,
the uncontrolled cell division can lead to cancer.
Most
organs prone to cancer are not easily seen so symptoms may only
be noticed at an advanced stage when they are already causing
severe problems such as liver cancer, bone cancer, stomach
cancer and testicular cancer.
Complete Cancer Center with Hope for the Hopeless
Cancer prevention, health screening and early cancer screening
remain the best combatants of cancer. However in situations
where cancer has gone beyond treatment or has been diagnosed as
hopeless, we eagerly take up the challenge. We pride ourselves
on accepting cancer victims for which other medical specialists
see no hope.
In
the setting of metastatic disease, the effectiveness of
conventional anti-cancer treatments such as radiation and
chemotherapy is limited. Gene therapy offers the most hope of
any cancer therapy for curing currently uncontrollable cancers.
In
addition to providing the standard cancer procedures, including
prevention, screening, diagnosis and treatment, the Oncology &
Gene Therapy Cancer Center can return hope to a seemingly
hopeless situation. Contact us today for more cancer
information, diagnosis of cancer symptoms or cancer treatment.
Medical tourism in Thailand enables you to get excellent medical
treatment with limited finances and no health insurance. And
you'll recover in one of the world's best, most enjoyable and
most popular tourist destinations.
Ear, Nose and Throat Specialist Doctor
Throat Cancer and Nose Cancer
A
sore throat is frequently followed by an ear infection or
accompanied by a runny nose because the ears,
nose & throat are
connected. For that reason an infection or abnormality in one of
them can spread to the others and a symptom in one is good
reason to carefully examine them all. Ear, nose or throat
Infection or disease is always cause for concern because these
are our sensory organs and of such great importance.
The
most serious disease affecting the ears, nose & throat is
cancer. The most widespread is throat cancer. Nose cancer is the
second most common followed by mouth cancer, esophageal cancer &
tongue cancer but it can also affect the larynx, paranasal
sinuses or salivary glands.
Diseases or infections of the eyes, ears, nose and throat
generally can be detected by visual examination. Sooner is
always better than later and early detection of oral cancer or
esophagus cancer and prompt treatment increases the likeliness
of recovery and cure.
Reducing risk and increasing the odds of a full, speedy recovery
begin with choosing an ear nose throat specialist that is highly
qualified, skilled & experienced as well as supported by new
medical technology and an ultra-modern health care facility. The
Bone and Joint Institute Center of Excellence at Piyavate
Hospital International Health Care Provider in Bangkok is
world-class and provides health care services as good as those
found in Europe, Australia & the USA but at a tremendously lower
cost. The doctors of our international hospital are American
Board and Thai Board-certified physicans assisted by qualified
and experienced registered nurses.
Cancer Treatment for Ear, Nose or Throat Cancer
Cancer treatments for throat cancer, nose cancer or ear cancer
include:
• Radiation Therapy
• Surgery
• Chemotherapy or
• Combined Therapy (a combination of therapies listed above)
Doctors select the most appropriate therapy based on each
patient’s unique condition including stage of cancer and type of
cancer, as well as the patient’s mental and physical conditions.
Our doctors allow the patient and his or her loved ones to take
part in the process of selecting the best cancer treatment.
Dr.
Donald M. Berwick, a clinical professor of pediatrics at
Children's Hospital and Harvard Medical School writing for
Newsweek Magazine, praises this policy: "When patients are
actually invited to participate in decisions about their
care—'shared decision-making' — both costs and rates of use of
expensive, invasive procedures tend to fall, and outcomes and
satisfaction improve." Dartmouth Medical School's famous
Dartmouth Atlas Project indicates that health care driven by
necessity rather than supply is likely to be more responsive to
your needs and cost less.
Patients can greatly enhance the effectiveness of cancer
treatment by refraining from risky behavior such as drinking and
smoking. If a patient cannot or will not give up the risky
habits and probable causes, a cancer cure may soon be followed
by a recurrence of cancer.
If
you have any of the symptoms we’ve mentioned or if you are a
smoker or a drinker concerned about the long-term effects these
may be having on your health, we welcome you to seek a reliable
consultation from one of our friendly health care professionals.
