We were so pleasantly surprised, not just by the price, but the surroundings, it was really state of the Art and the staff were excellent and very efficient.

It was everything we hoped it would be, the staff spoke English, the Dentist was fabulous, he was so particular and precise, he did a marvellous job for us.

We booked our whole trip and dental procedures through Barbara at Body & Spirit, Barbara was great! She took the time to explain everything before we left and she arranged everything for us, including the transport to and from the Hospital, which gave us tremendous peace of mind.

She was only a phone call away, but it was so well organised we didn’t need help with anything, we would not hesitate to recommend The Bangkok Hospital in Phuket to anyone wanting to save money on their procedures and we would certainly recommend doing business with Barbara, she knows Phuket very well and therefore can give advice based on her own personal trips.

We really enjoyed the whole experience, saved money and had a terrific holiday as well!

Oct2011 - My experience at Bangkok Hospital Phuket was excellent. Dr Pongsakorn is very sincere and professional surgeon. He did a wonderful job with my breast augmentation. He is easy to understand, and explains things very well. The hospital was very clean and the staff were very welcoming and friendly. I would recommend Bangkok Hospital Phuket and Dr Pongsakorn for breast augmentation. - Rhiannon, M. Sunshine Coast.

Sep 2011- Our trip to Phuket with Noosa Travel for dental treatment was most successful. My husband had a cataract operation whilst there and is very happy with the results. We have been referring our friends to our new dentists over in Phuket too. Judy W - Cooroy    

July 2011     Just travelling for the second time for dental work to Phuket with MyBodyandSpirit. Cannot fault the service both here and there, would be happy to go again with Kirby's help if we need more dental work in the future! Irene R - Pagewood NSW    

June 2011  Brilliant dental work-More then pleased they were efficient and helpful with seamless service. Caring dentistry and sursing staff, with attention to health and well being was constant.Relatively pain free, to the point where i feel asleep in the chair. We are constantly recommending this service. Cannot talk highly enough about it all.   Hamish- Doonan.    

May 2011  It has taken me 4 years to get the courage to do this. No regret and should have done it years ago. The doctors and staff are so caring. Experienced no pain during my dental treatment. Going back to have more work done. Sue S Noosa 

May 2011Having a group turned into alot of good friends. We were all there together for each other but had our own privacy. I would like to thank you very much and congratulate Barbara on the organisation of the group departure. Thank you for visiting me in hospital to see I was doing fine and later at the hotel checking all was ok and the flowers you gave me at the hospital, how nice. Well done, will go again. Thank you Barbara. Rae W Wynnum   

May 2011After going to the dentist here in Australia I realised how unaffordable it was to have the work done here. So I started to look into dental work overseas and decided to book with My Body & Spirit. I am now telling everyone I speak too that is needing any dental work to contact Emma at My Body & Spirit and she will organise everything for you. I was so happy with the work and Phuket as a holiday destination I can't wait to go back. Anne - Tewantin   

May 2011   I had the best time because of the group and the way Barb guided us through the days. I was alone but I had so much fun and all I want to do is return! From the moment I met everyone it was as though we had all known each other for years. I am sure Barb has a uniuqe gift and that is what brought us all together. I was a 71 year old travelling alone, and Barb knew how nervous I was regarding this trip. As soon as I arrved Barb met me in the hotel lobby and from that moment I lost all anxiety. I had the best time during my 22 day stay and returned to astonish everyone with the amazing change that had been carried out on my teeth. I fee, I must mention that my gums in some places because of my age had receeded. I was more than happy to see the crowns had been specially made to cover this. Teeth aside, the holiday was a bit like a comic strip at times, Barb herding me on to the elephant with her at Khao Sok National Park...then hauling me up to the tree platform to be strapped into the flying fox...bargaining with Charlie over the price of his fireworks to let off for us on the beach at the sunset dinner at Surin Beach.... Barb making sure we got the best seats at Fantasea at the lowest possible price. Giving me the confidence to fly to Bangkok on my own and organising an amazing tour for me of the Thai Burma Railway (River Kwai) which included lunch in the jungle, followed by a canoe trip and a spirtual tour of the temples the next day. Lyn McErvale Yarrawonga VIC   

June 2011The professional and medical standard is excellent. I would not hesitate to return to the Bangkok Phuket Hospital for any future treatment whether dental or cosmetic. Rae P Noosa

May 2011I couldn't have asked for better service, the staff at My Body & Spirit were very helpful. The accommodation at the Novotel was beautiful. The doctors and staff were excellent and spotlessly clean, you couldn't have asked for better. Beverley Q - Mt Coolum    

April 2011Having a phobia of dentists, when I found out that I needed 2 x root canals done fairly quickly and a few major fillings I started to freak out. Then I found out about the cost in Australia. One of my friends suggested in passing the idea of Thailand for dental work. My Body & Spirit had great feedback and heaps of information on the website. Emma was prompt and thorough with information so I booked the trip. The Staff in Phuket were amazing, so efficient and friendly. They went to a lot of effort to ensure I was comfortable. He gave me time out if I started to get panicky and my teeth look great. Plus I got to recover on the beach. Couldn't have asked for a better deal! Tamara VIC 

April 2011What can I say, everything we read on the My Body and Spirit website and testimonials was exactly how it was. Emma organised everything and it all went as smooth as silk. Flights, transfers, accommodation, hospital and transfers, tours, food and the people, we couldn't fault one aspect of our entire stay over there. The hospital was very modern, the staff and the doctors were excellent and I felt relaxed and well cared for at all times. Our accommodation at the Front Village Karon Beach was just what we were after. Something a bit quieter, and we had a lovely time staying there. I can't thank Emma and Noosa Travel enough for making going to the dentist such an enjoyable experience. Tony - Urunga NSW 

April 2011Our Phuket experience was one we will remember for a long time. The markets and the tours we took while we were there was amazing and so easy to arrange. The markets were an experience all of their own, never pay the first asking price the shop owners enjoy the bartering just as much as we do. Emma made our holiday a perfect experience and kept track of everything for us. Tracy - Ballarat    

April 2011 Thank-you for the seamless manner in which this trip was organised, from the flights, transfers, dental work and accommodation, all was far better than expected and less expensive than anticipated. I will book again and will recommend to friends. Glenn B - Noosa   

March 2011Our recent Dental holiday to Phuket far exceeded our expectations. The flights with strategic airlines and our accommodation at the Mercure Patong were both excellent. The dental service with transport to and from, and the helpful and informative staff with their professional manner took going to the dentist to a whole new level. Many thanks to Emma and Noosa Travel for organising this. Jim & Kaye - Tewantin

March 2011Noosa Travel & My Body & Spirit did a great deal to facilitate a smooth trip and experience for me, taking care of all the details and making the whole experience easy. I was very happy with the dentists I had, 3 in all. Dr Supachai was very kind, competent and conscientious. I was very pleased with the work he completed on my teeth. The ground services transport to and from the hotel and hospital, was a fantastic service. They were very reliable with polite drivers and great cars, very comfortable for the half hour journey each way to the hospital. The whole dental experience was beyond my expectations in terms of customer service, quality of staff and treatment. I am very happy with the results and very glad I made the effort. Kerri, Bli Bli QLD

February 2011  I would like to thank Barbara from Noosa Travel & My Body and Spirit for organizing my recent trip to Phuket for dental treatment. After receiving advice from our family dentist on the Sunshine Coast that I would need crown/veneer treatment and was shocked with the quote for this work. It was suggested that I look at the possibility of having this done overseas similar to my husband’s friend. I searched the internet for information on where/how to approach this. To my delight, the following day I received an email from Barbara who was situated locally to me, reading those testimonials and making contact with Barbara made me instantly comfortable with the idea. Barbara explained the process, made the bookings for flights, accommodation, appointments etc with ease and professionalism. Follow up information was submitted without fuss and taken care of instantly. The treatment I received both locally with Noosa Travel and with the wonderful, caring and experienced doctors was beyond expectations. The hospital staff were extremely friendly and always had a smile to greet you that made you feel comfortable. I am so proud of my new smile and would not hesitate in encouraging others to do the same as myself. A big thank you to Noosa Travel/My Body and Spirit Rhonda, Pelican Waters, QLD

December 2010  I have had treatment in Bangkok and Phuket. It is all worth while to include a holiday and dental. Many people are afraid because of it being in a foreign country, but they are more compitent and skilled htan many of our own dentists. They all speak very good english and are very understanding. Brian, Gold Coast

November 2010  We were a little worried before we left, but found there was absolutely nothing to worry about. We had a great 3 week holiday and Rob got a new smile that we love and we saved more than $20,000 (holiday and spending money included). To top it off, the service was much better than we have ever received in Australia, and we to ride an elephant and eat beautiful food every day etc. Rob & Di, Romsey VIC

October 2010 Firstly, I just want to thank My Body & Spirit, and the Bangkok Hospital in Phuket sooo much for making this all possible. For what you pay in Thailand is so little to the prices here in Australia and the service is so much better, it was just amazing i honestly could not ask for anything more. From the moment I arrived everything was taken care of and it was such peace of mind. When I got to the hospital the staff were really welcoming and caring - from the reception to the nurses to the surgeon...it was just exceptional! I am recommending anyone who is considering surgery to go there, you will be happy you did! My surgeon, Dr Pongsakorn made me feel so at ease and answered anything I had to ask. I just can't thank them enough for all their hard work. I'm amazed, and I'd do it all again! Rebecca, Brisbane QLD (Breast Augmentation)

October 2010  I was so happy with the Doctors and how they looked after me. If anyone is thinking about it I would say go there! It's cheaper, cleaner and best of all you can't even see any scars! Cally, Noosa (after breast augmentation)

July 2010  Our original quote from the Australian dentist was $1,000's of dollars more and the work quoted far more complicated than was required. After Consultation with Emma and the Thai dentist it was determined we didn't require nearly as much work & it could be done much cheaper, faster and easier in Phuket. After having half of the work done so dar i am dying to go back to get it finished. They were GREAT. I am smiling again. Irene R, VIC

June 2010 Bangkok Phuket Hospital Phuket exceeded all of my expectations; I have never had an experience, which was so effortless and professional. Australian hospitals could definitely take a leaf out of this establishment's book. At no stage was there anything that was too much to ask of any of the staff at this hospital. The staff - from the man who greeted me at the door to the nurses in the ward made me feel so welcome and comfortable. Anyone who is thinking, this may be something they would like to do, please do it - you will not regret it. My doctor, Dr Pongsatron was a very gentle and considerate person who is a wealth of knowledge in his field. Noosa Travel/My Body and Spirit made everything work for me seemlessly and I would highly recommend them to anyone who wants a professional and knowledgeable team to look after a fantastic holiday like this. Thank you to Barb and her team for everything - AAA++ service. Samantha, Sunshine Coast  

June 2010To be completely honest I really didn't know what to expect of my dental work in Phuket, Thailand. The service, cleanliness and professionalism made the experience totally worth the travel. I went for a treatment recommended by an Australian dentist and received advice from my Thai dentist that both saved me time and money, advice I doubt I would receive from an Australian dentist. I have the utmost confidence in the Bangkok Hospital, Phuket as well as Dr Pangsrinont and would highly recommend both to anyone. Karina W, Sydney

May 2010Fantastic from start to finish. Emma was great, informing me of what the Dr had to say, to asking any questions I needed answering. The Doctor was very kind and gentle and the hospital and staff were beautiful. And I'm very happy with my surgery so Thank you very very mych. Joy, Melbourne  

May 2010Noosa Travel provide a great service where they act as a very efficient and effective conduit between intending clients and Bangkok hospital in Phuket. Our travel & accommodation was organised very well. Emma has done a terrific job with that and the dental component. Mal T - Noosa

April 2010 The dentist and staff were great. They were very professional and experienced in the dental treatment they provided. The results definately met my expectations and I would definately recommend Dr.Supachai for anyone needing crowns - results were very pleasing! I really want to Thank you for organising the trip and dentist visits for me, I know it took alot of time to organise and I really appreciate your help. You were very helpful and I would definately recommend you as a great travel agent!! It was my first trip to Phuket and definately won't be the last - I have already told my family and friends what a wonderful place it is and I would love to make another trip there. Liza A - Melbourne  

April 19, 2010I was satisfied with my dental treatment in Phuket, Thailand. My friends had gone before and so I decided to take the plunge. What would have cost me $14,000... here cost me $7000 over there. I not only had a reasonably priced holiday, I had my teeth done and loved every day that I spent in Thailand. This is much better than visiting our dentists for 1 hour every week and costing us the world. My friend came with me and she also had hers done. My husband is now going over to have his done, so that should speak for itself. Noosa Travel made it easy. Margaret Thompson  

January 10, 2010I was apprehensive when a colleague suggested that I have my dental requirements attended to in Thailand. When I discovered that I could take my two teenage daughters to Phuket for two weeks (airfares, transfers, accommodation, full breakfast daily and all the required dental work included) for less than the cost of the four crowns I needed if commisssioned in Australia, I made the decision to book with Emma at Noosa Travel. The Bangkok Phuket Hospital staff were efficient, our dental appointments on time, the Dentist was thorough and fully answered any questions that we had. I am very happy with the service that was provided. My daughter who had a wisdom tooth extracted with the minimum of fuss was happy to 'recover' on the beautiful beaches of Thailand. All in all we had an excellent dental experience (if there is such a thing) and have great memories of a fantastic holiday. Sharon - Noosa Heads

December 09, 2009Thanks so very much Barb. My trip to Thailand for cosmetic surgery exceeded my expectations. Dr Ponsakorn was amazing, so kind, caring and very professional. Bangkok Phuket Hospital was fabulous (5 star) and the hospital staff were so friendly and provided A Class care and service. All my appointments were on time and I always felt well informed. I am so happy with my breast augmentation. Dr Ponsakorn has done a fantastic job. We stayed at Hotel Ibis Kata, and the service was great, the hotel was lovely and the staff were so friendly. Kata Beach is beautiful, such an amazing spot. Thanks Barb and Noosa Travel for organising the best experience of my life. Angela, Sunshine Coast.

November 2009I am more than pleased with the results, my friends are looking at me with strange looks on their faces, they keep saying, "What have you been up too? You look good and your eyes are really shining". Dr Piyapas was excellent, he took the time to explain everything to me, did not hurry my appointments, was always on time and made himself available if i needed to speak to him. The hospital was more like a five star resort. I was met at the door, taken to my appointments, never left alone and the staff were genuinely interested in my well being. - 'after cosmetic surgery' I went over there expecting to have three fillings as my dentist had told me i needed before i left Australia. I did have teeth i was concerned about but he said he was just going to keep an eye on. When i got to Phuket the dentist looked at the teeth i was concerned about and they were in fact very infected. I needed three root canals, five fillings and two caps, all of which i had done at almost the same cost as i was quoted for the three fillings in Australia. For the first time in years i don't have a bad taste in my mouth. I am not the best at the dentist but i managed to sit in the chair and have all this work done and it did not hurt. I did not even require pain killers when i got back to the resort and my mouth was not sore. Emma arranged this in less than two weeks and it went like clock work! A Raye Amamoor (After Mid to lower face and neck lift & Upper and Lower Eyelid surgery and dental work)

October 2009"A wonderful experience, great PAIN FREE dentistry with amazing results. Everything was well organised from the travel arrangements, accommodation, transfers, hospital transfer and treatments, With spare time for a holiday too! Thank you Noosa Travel and My Body and Spirit" V Hobbs Tewantin
 
October 2009"I personally had a ball for 4 weeks. I was much impressed by the kindness of the people and their continual smile is legendary. I found that they have a good sense of humour" J Rety Brisbane

October 2009"From the moment we stepped off the plane in Phuket to the day we had to return, everything was organised. From the Tour operator, to the accommodation, transport organised for appointments. We had wonderful treatment and thoughtfullness throughout. Was so much appreciated - we want to go back next year!" K & V Donpon Tewantin   22

Sep 2009"I needed extensive dental work which I had put off for years and years. When I finally decide to do something about it, I expected the whole experience to be costly and complicated to arrange. I was thrilled with the efficient, professional and friendly service provided by My Body and Spirit and Noosa Travel from the very first email to the follow up on my return to Australia. Every aspect of my holiday, transfers, dental work and even the tours in Phuket were arranged to the last detail and I had no problems whatsoever once I got to Thailand. The hospital, dental work, nurses, staff and dentists were fantastic and first class in all respects and were equal to, if not better, than any dental work I have had in Australia. I am so happy with my dental work and my new smile - I would absolutely recommend it to anyone who is thinking about going to Thailand for dental work and highly recommend My Body and Spirit and Noosa Travel to arrange the trip. Thanks Emma" Megan M Melbourne

September 2009I decided to go ahead with this treatment with a great deal of trepidation,unfounded as it worked out,the whole experience was very professional and painless which was a plesant surprise! For those who think there is a risk the hospital is not up to standard,my experience was that it was at least equal to but in most cases of a better standard than any hospital I have attended in Australia. The customer service and timeliness was a breath of fresh air when compared to the almost "government department" attitude we some times experience in our so called developed nation .I am planning the next phase of my treatment with full confidence over the next year or so. Denis D Adelaide

Sep 2009 "My experience of dental work in Thailand was great, completely changing my experience of dentists from ....."Oh no, not the dentist ... expensive, painful, miserable!!!!! into ......"Wow, a trip to the dentist together with Thai food, massages, gorgeous temples, elephant rides....!!" Jane Palmwoods

Sep 2009"The package equals a new lease of womanhood for me. Having breast fed away my breasts to 4 sons, to wear a dress and have a shape means personal feelings. It still feels weird. Here I am 2 weeks later after the operation, healing after medication and travels. The travelling and resort rest with all cleaning and catering done was great. Makes for the best test. Blessed by it. Thanks" Karen, Sunshine Coast (after breast augmentation)

July 2009 Barbara "Thanks for arranging my trip to phuket, just letting you know all went well & if in future you want to use me as a reference for new zealanders going to phuket to get work done you may do so . had a great time and the hotel was more than suitable and was well placed in phuket. Hey its good to see you are getting some interest from over this side of the tasman it was the way to go as i was so well looked after over there, had taxi to and from my hotel and the service was great i had no complaints. was so cheap compared to new zealand for the dental work , would of cost thousands if done here. thanks for everything". Ian H New Zealand  

''I thought the hospital was excellent and Dr Supachai was an extremely good dentist. His workmanship was excellent. The pick up to and from my hotel to the hospital was excellent. I would recommend anyone to use this facility in Phuket.'' ''Just a quick thankyou to you and your staff in organising my trip to Thailand and subsequent cosmetic surgery at the Bangkok Phuket Hospital. I didn't know what to expect when I got there, but I needn't have worried, the nursing staff and doctors where first class and I was well taken care of in my own private room and nursing care. It has been 12 months since my surgery and I am extremely happy with the results. I now am more confident in myself and not embarrassed any more about looking old before my time. On my 60th birthday in a restaurant I told the waiter I was celebrating the "Big O" she said " I hope I look like you when I'm 50. Believe me that comment said it all. I am now looking forward to next month when I go over again to have my stomach Lipo suctioned and can't wait to see the results. Good work and thanks for the personal encouragement.''       

"I am so extremely happy that I chose to go to Thailand for my breast enlargement. Five star doctors and hospital. I have never been treated so good. My doctor was Dr Pathom, and he is the best if you are thinking about breast surgery. Go to Thailand you won't regret it. Better than Australia." Tracey ''We are very happy with the dental work had done. The friendly, helpful staff at the dental hospital and the transport to and from was excellent. We were pleasantly surprised by the hospital, very modern, up to date equiptment and plenty of helpful staff. Nothing was to much trouble for them. Having all the appointments booked before hand made it an excellent holiday and at the same time we returned refreshed with new smiles.'' Sharon and Wayne 2009
 
"This experience was so much more than I had hoped for! Dr Pathom was amazing and I felt cared for and safe at all times. The hospital care was outstanding. I was ferried to and from the hospital with efficiency and the ultimate concern for my welfare at all times. I highly recommend this experience and I am so pleased I did it this way." Nina  

''I am 47, never travelled or treated myself to much being a single working mum with 3 children. Going to Thailand and having my dental work done was one of the best experiences I have done for myself. My teeth look fabulous! It has changed my life, I don't even mind having my photo taken now. I spent three weeks relaxing and being pampered. It was just the healing I needed to be able to move on in life. I am now the happiest I have ever been! Thanks Noosa Travel, you've helped me to change my life.'' Fiona 2009

"I thought everything about my stay at the hospital was top quality. The staff couldn't have been more professional and kind. I went there on my own and was surrounded by friendly efficient staff who made it a lot easier. Dr Pongsakorn was really maticulous and proud of his work as he should be. Having the bags under my eyes done was an extra bonus and has taken years off my looks at such a small cost." Michelle Tr.  May 2009

Hotel was great with friendly and helpful staff. Dental Clinic was also great, same as last time I went in 2007. I would not hesitate to use their services again and Noosa Travel was great with organising my dental & travel package. Thanks Barb Vicki ............June 2009
