Praram 9 Hospital, or PR9, has expanded its use of telemedicine for patients with mild symptoms and arranged ambulances to pick up patients facing travel restrictions, in a bid to maintain continuity of care amid heavy rain and flooding. Dr. Witthaya Wanpen, Deputy Managing Director of the Business Development and Strategic Planning Office, told the Stock Vision news team that although some patients asked to postpone appointments on September 26-27, 2026, due to travel disruptions, the hospital continues to operate as normal, and bed occupancy currently stands at around 70%, leaving sufficient capacity to handle major surgery and emergency cases. Foreign patients also continue to travel in for treatment, particularly those from the Middle East seeking care for kidney disease, diabetes and diabetic wounds, patients from Myanmar requiring cancer surgery and robot-assisted procedures using the da Vinci Robot, and patients from China seeking consultations for infertility or IVF. Operating results for the third quarter of 2026 remain in line with targets, and the company aims for single-digit revenue growth in 2026, with the fourth quarter seen as the high season for the hospital business, which is expected to help support full-year growth in line with the set target.
