Influencer Criticizes Hospital Staff Conduct Following Painful Medical Delay

On July 31, 2026, a well-known Thai influencer, known as 'Ne' from the 'Tua Perd Concert Ja Ting Ja' channel, shared a distressing experience regarding his medical care. Ne reported that a mass under his chin, which he first noticed two months ago, has grown significantly and is now causing him severe pain. Despite his condition, he encountered negative interactions with hospital staff when he arrived for an unscheduled visit due to the intensity of his pain.

According to the report from Khaosod Online, Ne stated that he was questioned by staff about why he did not wait for his scheduled appointment. Upon checking the system, it was discovered that his upcoming appointment was only for blood work and a consultation in September, rather than the surgery he had requested. While a doctor at the medical center promised to attempt to prioritize him the following day, the influencer expressed deep anxiety regarding whether he would receive timely surgical intervention.

For residents and travelers in Thailand, this incident highlights the importance of understanding hospital appointment systems and the potential for communication challenges within public health facilities. It remains to be confirmed whether the hospital will issue an official statement regarding the staff's conduct or if the influencer will successfully undergo the surgery as hoped.
