The Thai Ministry of Public Health has divided Thailand into 13 geographical areas. Each area covers a population of approximately 5 million with about 5,000 hospital beds. There are approximately 12,000 physicians in Thailand. Roughly, the physician to population ratio would be one physician to 5,500 people. Currently, Thailand has about 300 active Neurologists. However, more than two-thirds of this specialized group resides in the greater Bangkok metropolitan area and other neighboring provinces. Therefore, the concentrated grouping of neurologists in Bangkok reveals that there is a shortage of neurologists across the country, especially in rural areas including the Northeastern and Southern parts of Thailand.
