A tracheostomy is a surgical procedure to create an opening in the neck to place a tube into a person's trachea or windpipe. It allows air to enter the lungs when normal breathing is not possible due to injury, illness, or blockage. Thailand has become an increasingly popular destination for this procedure, offering top-notch medical facilities and surgeons skilled in otolaryngology and critical care.

Thailand’s hospitals offer state-of-the-art care for those in need of a tracheostomy. Whether the surgery is performed urgently due to a medical emergency or scheduled for long-term mechanical ventilation, Thailand's medical experts employ the most up-to-date surgical techniques. The medical teams are experienced in both percutaneous and surgical tracheostomies, ensuring that the most appropriate method is used for each patient's unique condition.
Before undergoing a tracheostomy, patients are typically required to have tests like blood work, chest X-rays, and a full medical evaluation. Lifestyle changes, such as quitting smoking, are also recommended for better surgery outcomes and recovery. Communication skills of the healthcare team in English or your native language should be a key consideration when choosing a hospital.
During a tracheostomy, the surgeon creates a small hole in the neck and trachea to insert a tracheostomy tube. The method used—percutaneous or surgical—depends on the patient's medical history and current health condition. Post-operative care includes management of the tracheostomy site and respiratory health. Most patients stay in Thailand for at least a week post-surgery to ensure proper healing and to attend follow-up appointments.
The cost of a tracheostomy in Thailand ranges from $3,500 to $6,000. The price may vary depending on the hospital and the specific technique used.

Pam and Konkai Health were absolute rock stars in helping us find a fantastic surgeon for my boyfriend's hip replacement in Thailand. We had previously paid for a service to help us find a doctor and it was just throwing money away. The paid service was slow to respond and only offered us quotes for the most expensive hospitals.
Pam on the other hand was a completely free service and was always quick to reply, patient with all of our questions, and presented a variety of options in our price range. She made the entire process of finding a doctor, setting up video conferences, and scheduling the surgery extremely easy. She continued to help us even after the surgery had taken place with follow up visits and final questions we had before traveling back home. We cannot recommend her highly enough!!! We will definitely be using her again for our next surgical needs.
Many thanks to Konkai. After an online inquiry Konkai guided me to Praram9 orthopedic for a consultation on a hip injury. I had the consultation, clearly a femeral head collapse and needing the hip joint replacement. The beauty was in a half day full consultation, x-ray, ekg, blood work, chest exam ... everything needed to proceed with surgery was done.
This was so professionally and efficiently done, all questions answered, no consultants, no referrals etc., all in house, all guided around the hospital. A friendly caring class act. So I then came back to Konkai to setup for the operation, with the same orthopedic team led by Dr. Peerapong that made the assessment. I returned 2 weeks later, admitted, had the replacement operation stayed 5 days with the hospital team, and quite frankly, it was a privilege to be in their care.
Now after 10 days recovery in Bangkok i am ready to return home. Why Thailand, well in my country New Zealand, you get passed around to specialists, consultants, it all takes time, does not engender trust, and i think the profit motive is primary like the American system. Further, there are less facilities so more waiting for slots. Thailand has a care culture, and the expertise and professionalism with Konkai and Praram9 is superb. They have top quality facilities and capacity to fit your schedule.
If i ever need any major surgery, this will be my first stop. Thanks again
Outstanding. The most safe, amazing communication these past couple of months with Pam from Konkai health. I asked soooo many questions there must be around 80+ emails from me and every single one has been replied in full. Even now 2 weeks after surgery. Super professional, and the surgeon Dr Thawatchai Boonpadhanapong, at Yanhee Hospital that Pam recommended to me for a breast implant removal, were just incredible. No money deposits asked for…just pure care.
The service and systems at Yanhee were out the gate. I am so glad I travelled all that way and didn’t do it in New Zealand as I don’t think it would’ve been as good haha. I was so looked after by the amazing nurses, anaesthetist, Dr Thawatchai and my interpreter Mr Wing. It’s overwhelming looking for the right fit and if it wasn’t for Konkai Health and Pam I wouldn’t be feeling as happy as I am now 2 weeks after my surgery. I cannot thank you enough for what feels like a life transformation :)
"Whilst searching for information on getting my cataracts done, I found that most websites do not provide sufficient information. I was fortunate enough to find Konkai.Health and connect with Pam.
She and other members of Konkai go far and beyond to do everything possible to give you the best advice.
I highly recommend this company for health related matters whilst you are in Thailand. Real five star assistance."
Pam from Konkai just made the right match for my plastic surgery, not only did it make me safe time, but the chosen doctor was just exceeding my expectations! Thank you so muxh 🙏🏼
I highly recommend their expertise and thankful for having been a patient at Yanhee hospital! …
Konkai Health helped me with my search to find affordable service for my rotary cuff repair. Told them my price range and gave me options for hospitals. Helped with every step of the process from consultation with physician to surgery to after care if needed. I highly recommend if you're an expat or visiting and you need medical services reach out to this organization.
"I live in New Zealand, and my partner and I went on a holiday in Laos (Asia). I became sick and needed an emergency stomach operation. I reached out to this company, and they have been nothing but helpful.
They helped us with translating in Laos; they organised a taxi driver who was waiting for us at arrival and drove us to the hospital, where they organised a scan for me. I only needed to show my passport and an email when I arrived. I was already in the system for the appointment.
Everything went really smoothly. The company is professional and reliable, and the staff is super friendly too. I would highly recommend this company. I am grateful for the great service this company offered when I was in need."
"I can say that the whole medical journey was very pleasant. The information given before the actual start was good. The meeting and intake with the doctor was clear.
Konkai Health was always responding fast and helpful if I came up with questions. And the actual surgery had a good outcome also. Now I just ended my last check-up, and I am very delighted how everything went."
Was confused as to where to get good Medical Services in Thailand. This company was very responsive and helpful.
They directed me to a very reputable local Hospital where I was treated by a Doctor with great reviews.
Also, the cost for the procedure was very reasonable and a fraction of what it would cost me in the US.
I would highly recommend this company to others. 🙏♥️🙏
I came to Thailand from America for a liposuction in last week. In a Google search, back in May, I came across Konkai Health and decided to reach out to them.For my surgery Pam, recommended Rattinan Clinic out of Bangkok. Pam was able to connect me with the clinic to set up a consultation. The process was very easy.I recommend Konkai Health and Rattinan Clinic. Both are 10/10
