Regenerative Tendon and Shoulder Treatment in Bangkok for UK patients

UK patients with tendon and shoulder pain travel to Bangkok for regenerative treatment such as stem cell and PRP injections because access at home can be limited, slow or costly. The first step is free: send your MRI or scan report through the form on this page and a doctor tells you whether treatment could fit your case, before you book anything.

Why patients from the UK look abroad

• NHS waits for specialist assessment and surgery are long in many regions, and regenerative injections are rarely offered on the NHS.
• Most regenerative injections are only available privately in the UK.
• Bangkok is one of Asia's main medical-travel hubs, with private hospitals and English-speaking medical staff.

Getting to Bangkok

• Flight time: about 11 to 12 hours direct from London.
• Visa: many passports, including from the UK, can enter Thailand visa-free for a short stay. Rules change, so check the current length with the Royal Thai Embassy before you travel. A medical treatment visa exists for longer stays.
• Time needed: most people plan 5 to 7 days in Bangkok, including rest before flying home.

How it works

1. Send your MRI or scan report (a photo of the report is fine)
2. A doctor reviews it and tells you which options could fit
3. Personal plan and quote, based on your case, not a price list
4. Treatment in Bangkok, then follow-up check-ins when you are home

Questions to ask first

• Which cells or preparation, from where, and how much?
• What results are realistic for my condition and stage?
• What does follow-up look like once I am back in the UK?
• What should I tell my own doctor at home?
