Phuket is again making headlines with the arrival of Bumrungrad International Hospital. Set to open its doors in late 2026 in Mai Khao, it will redefine healthcare for locals and the island’s millions of visitors. Known as Thailand’s top-ranked hospital and long trusted by patients from around the world, Bumrungrad in Phuket aims to deliver a six-star, boutique medical experience unlike anything the region has seen.
What Sets Bumrungrad Phuket Apart?
- Unmatched Location: Strategically situated near Phuket International Airport and elite resort and lifestyle hubs, including The Zero Nai Yang, Blue Canyon Country Club, and world-class marinas, the hospital will be the most convenient private medical centre in Thailand for both international and domestic patients.
- State-of-the-Art Facility: Phase one launches with 150 beds (planned expansion to 212) and comprehensive specialities, wellness, cardiology, orthopaedic & spine surgery, maternity, oncology, and paediatrics, all supported by top-tier technology and integrated records with the Bangkok flagship.
- Excellence in Medical Tourism: With this island’s 430,000 residents and over 9 million annual visitors, Bumrungrad will serve as a vital referral centre for complex cases, with a dedicated international team, interpreters, and seamless care.
- Wellness & Longevity Focus:Just before the main hospital’s debut, the VitalLife Scientific Wellness Centre (a Bumrungrad subsidiary) has opened nearby, pioneering cutting-edge longevity medicine, biological age tracking, and custom health optimisation for both locals and tourists.
- Luxury Meets Healing:The hospital is conceived as a “six-star boutique” destination, blending clinical expertise with hospitality, green space, and local art—a true fusion of world-class care and resort-style comfort.
Bumrungrad’s arrival helps elevate Nai Yang and Mai Khao into Phuket’s most promising growth corridor, joining luxury resorts, beachside condominium investments such as The Zero Nai Yang, new wellness-focused residences, and Thailand’s most sophisticated medical infrastructure. For Phuket residents and its legion of visitors, this means access to internationally acclaimed clinical care at their doorstep, and the convenience and luxury of recovery in a tropical paradise.
