Weekend heart clinic
Cardiology on Koh Samui
Specialist heart care most of the island can't offer — 12-lead EKG, echocardiogram and full heart check-ups, read by board-certified cardiologists every weekend.
Real cardiology, right here
Getting a heart properly checked on Koh Samui normally means a trip to a mainland hospital. Our weekend cardiology clinic changes that. Two board-certified cardiologists from Phramongkutklao — one an interventional specialist — see patients here on Saturdays and Sundays, so chest pain, palpitations, high blood pressure or a pre-surgery clearance can be sorted without leaving the island.
Meet the cardiologists
Both trained at Phramongkutklao College of Medicine, one of Thailand's leading military-medical schools.

What we offer
From a quick EKG to a full cardiac work-up.
12-lead EKG
An electrocardiogram recorded and interpreted by a cardiologist — the first check for palpitations, chest pain or an irregular pulse.
Echocardiogram
Ultrasound of the heart to see the chambers, valves and pumping function in real time.
Specialist consultation
Sit down with a cardiologist to review symptoms, results and a plan — including referral for angiography or a stent when needed.
Comprehensive heart check-up
A full cardiac work-up: EKG, echo, chest X-ray and the blood panel that actually matters for heart risk.
What's in the comprehensive heart check-up
The ฿5,090 heart-health programme covers the tests a cardiologist actually wants to see:
- 12-lead EKG
- Echocardiogram (heart ultrasound)
- Chest X-ray
- Complete blood count (CBC)
- Kidney function — BUN, creatinine, electrolytes
- LDL cholesterol
- HbA1c (blood sugar)
- Liver enzymes — AST, ALT
- Cardiologist review of every result
