FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 06, 2024

Bangkok Dusit Medical Services (BDMS) and Russia's Medsi Group have formalized a strategic partnership aimed at enhancing medical cooperation, teleconsultation, and medical tourism between the two countries.

The memorandum of understanding (MoU) was signed during a recent meeting at Medsi Group's headquarters in Moscow earlier this week.

The partnership will provide Russian patients with greater access to high-quality international medical services, both in Thailand and upon their return home. 

As the largest private healthcare provider in Thailand, BDMS offers a comprehensive network of hospitals, clinics, and wellness centers, including a strong presence in popular Russian tourist destinations such as Bangkok, Phuket, Pattaya, and Koh Samui.

Beyond elective procedures, BDMS also operates the only private trauma network in Thailand, ensuring that Russian patients receive timely and effective care in case of emergencies.

Medsi Group, a leading federal network of private medical clinics in Russia, offers a wide range of medical services, from primary care to complex surgical interventions. 

With over 148 clinics across the country, including 69 in Moscow and the Moscow region, Medsi Group is well-positioned to support patients' healthcare needs.

The collaboration between BDMS and Medsi Group marks a significant step forward in expanding healthcare cooperation and promoting medical tourism between Thailand and Russia.
