Patient Testimonial
Pituitary Tumor Patient
"I was exercising as usual, then after a while, I started staggering and feeling like the room was spinning."
I didn't think much of it for a day or two. Then, when I slept, I had the same spinning sensation, like someone with an inner ear imbalance. I couldn't open my eyes; everything just spun.
So I called 1669 and asked to go to Ramkhamhaeng Hospital, thinking it best to get admitted and thoroughly checked. I saw Dr. Puripun, who checked my eye and ear nerves. An MRI finally revealed a tumor. The doctor advised urgent surgery, so I decided to proceed immediately.
Talking with the doctor, I wasn't worried about the surgery's outcome, whether I'd live or die; I was indifferent, just ready to fight. I wanted to get better, so I decided on the surgery. Now, I'm completely normal; I can walk and move around typically. Overall, I've improved.
"I was impressed by the luxurious, comfortable, and convenient atmosphere of the labor room, and the nurses provided excellent care."
My family already uses Ramkhamhaeng Hospital, so for my second child, I had the chance to use their new delivery room. I was deeply impressed by its luxurious, comfortable, and convenient atmosphere, and the exceptional care from the nurses. They comforted me when I became scared about having a C-section, as I had initially planned for a natural birth.
Beyond the attentive nursing care, the calming ambiance of the labor room significantly reduced my anxiety and stress. The room had a TV, a relaxing atmosphere, and an en-suite bathroom. My husband was also able to stay and support me. Even though I was in a lot of pain, I still felt a sense of ease and comfort.
"My quality of life has improved; I can return to work as usual." "I've been on dialysis for 7 years. The service is excellent; the doctor and team provide great advice and care. Now, after my kidney transplant, my body feels much better."
Dr. Tanin Sirimongkolrat, a nephrologist at Ramkhamhaeng Hospital, shares a patient's story:
"A 55-year-old male patient with chronic kidney failure has been under our care for 10 years, and this is likely his eighth year on dialysis. He used to complain about the weekly three-times-a-week hospital visits, which meant missing work and business opportunities. He also faced frequent infections and hospitalizations, significantly impacting his quality of life despite his relatively young age. Three months ago, when Ramkhamhaeng Hospital launched its kidney transplant program with the Thai Red Cross, he was immediately interested. Following his kidney transplant, he's returned to a normal life and work."
Ramkhamhaeng Hospital is a member of the Thai Red Cross Organ Donation Centre and performs kidney transplants for end-stage renal failure patients. For inquiries about kidney transplant surgery, call 064-5646059 daily (08:00 - 16:00)
