Editorial policy

How we research and write our guides, where our information comes from, and what we do when we get something wrong.

By the ThailandHealthFinder editorial team · Last updated

Who writes our content

Our guides are researched and written by the ThailandHealthFinder editorial team. We write for people considering treatment, in plain English, and we try to cover the downsides as clearly as the benefits.

Medical review. Our guides are not currently reviewed by a doctor. We’re working to bring independent clinicians on board. When a page has been medically reviewed, it will say so, with the reviewer’s name and qualifications. Until then, please treat our guides as a starting point for questions to ask a qualified doctor, not as medical advice.

Where our information comes from

  • Medical information: regulators, professional bodies, and published guidance for patients, such as the UK’s NHS, the US FDA and Thailand’s Medical Council. We link to sources where it’s useful.
  • Prices: clinics’ and hospitals’ published price lists, and written quotes. Every price table shows the month we checked it and links to its sources. Prices change, so treat them as a guide to what’s typical, not a quote.
  • Clinic information: official registers first, then the clinic itself. See how we review clinics.

Independence

What we write about a treatment or clinic is never for sale. Clinics can’t pay to change our guides or price data, or to have negative information removed. Advertising and sponsored listings are always labelled. Read how we make money.

Before-and-after photos and results

We don’t publish before-and-after photos or promise results. Outcomes vary from person to person, and photos are easy to select or edit.

Updates and corrections

Every guide shows the date it was last updated. If we find an error, we correct it promptly. If you spot one, email hello@thailandhealthfinder.com with the page and the problem.
