Medical Services in Railay
Everything Takecare Clinic Railay offers, in one place. We are open 8am–10pm daily and
reachable 24 hours by phone, WhatsApp and Line. Walk in without an appointment, or ask for a
doctor resort visit if you cannot walk — which on a
peninsula with no vehicles is a genuine limitation rather than a preference.

Not sure which you need?
Call +66 81 718 9080 or message us describing what has
happened. We will tell you whether it needs a clinic visit, a resort visit, or a crossing to Krabi
Town — and roughly what it will cost — before you set off anywhere.
Part of the Takecare network
Takecare Clinic Railay works together with Doctor Ao Nang Takecare Medical Clinic in Ao Nang. The two clinics share
doctors, records and treatment plans, so treatment started here continues on the mainland without
starting again.
When to go to hospital instead
Call 1669 and call us at the same time for chest pain, breathlessness at rest,
stroke symptoms, a head injury with vomiting or confusion, uncontrolled bleeding, or anyone who cannot
be roused. There is no hospital on Railay, so those all mean a crossing — see
evacuation and hospital transfer. Calling early is
free and it is the single thing that most improves how these go.
