Theppharat Nakhon Ratchasima Hospital formerly is Nakhon Ratchasima Hospital or Maharat II Hospital. Now it's main public hospital in the west of Korat, located in Kok Kruat District, around 20 km from downtown. It's a little far out but the service is really pleasant and less crowded compare to those main ones in downtown.
