I wouldn't get serious sick there but I went to the Hospital/doctor twice while in Thailand.

1) Went to have a vitamin shot I have to take every 3 months I brought it myself.
Conversation with doctor and shot by the doctor
Total $3

2) Fever for 2 days and feeling shitty.
Conversation with doctor, 5 days supply of the generic Tamiflu they use, 5 days of antibiotics, strong aspirins, some mineral powder and a shot of something I forgot to ask about $30. The doctor wanted to keep me a day on a drip and for observation but I wanted to go home instead but that night would have costs me about $50 in single room.

3) Talked to someone there that brought in a6 year old girl that had swallowed a ear ring.
2 X-rays of the stomach and a colon rinse since it were almost out $25
