About Dr. Atip
Dr. AtipChatsudthipong
American & Thai Board-Certified Urologist
Dr. Atip Chatsudthipong is a urological surgeon at Bumrungrad International Hospital in Bangkok, with a particular focus on the prostate. He trained in the United States — earning his medical degree at the University of Illinois at Chicago and completing his urology residency at the Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University, where he served as Chief Resident.
Today he cares for patients from Thailand and around the world, offering consultations in English and Thai, and treatments ranging from minimally invasive UroLift to robotic prostate cancer surgery.

Approach to care
Clear explanations. Shared decisions.
Urological conditions are often personal, and decisions about treatment can affect daily life, continence and sexual function. Dr. Atip's consultations are built around understanding each patient's priorities, explaining every reasonable option — including watchful waiting — and agreeing a plan together.
Where appropriate, he favours minimally invasive approaches, such as UroLift for an enlarged prostate and robot-assisted surgery for prostate cancer, alongside careful follow-up.
Education & training
US training, international standards.
Urology training in the United States combines a surgical internship with years of supervised residency. Serving as Chief Resident means taking on senior clinical and leadership responsibility in the final year of that programme.
