Finding Your Way to Bahosi Housing Complex in Lanmadaw Township
The address listed on this page places the centre within the Bahosi Housing Complex in Lanmadaw Township, one of the older downtown townships of Yangon. Lanmadaw lies in the western part of the city centre, close to the Yangon River and within reach of busy areas such as Chinatown and the main downtown commercial streets. Because the township is densely built and traffic in central Yangon can be heavy, it helps to plan your journey before setting out, especially for a medical appointment.
Practical tips for visiting
- Note the block numbers. The complex contains several buildings, so keep the unit numbers from the address with you. Showing the written address in Myanmar script to a taxi driver is often the quickest way to avoid confusion.
- Allow extra time. Downtown congestion varies through the day. Leaving early reduces stress and makes it easier to arrive in time for registration before a consultation.
- Taxis and ride-hailing. These are generally the most convenient options for patients, particularly anyone unwell, elderly or travelling with children.
- Bring your records. Previous test results, a list of current medicines and any referral letters help consultants understand your situation quickly.
- Confirm before you travel. Opening times and consultant availability can change, so contact the centre in advance to check that the doctor you need is seeing patients that day.
Visiting with family members
In Myanmar it is common for relatives to accompany patients, and a companion can help with directions, paperwork and remembering the doctor's advice. If you are coming from outside Yangon, consider arranging accommodation nearby so you are not making a long journey on the day of an appointment or procedure.
If you feel seriously unwell, have chest pain, difficulty breathing or a severe injury, do not delay by travelling across the city to a scheduled clinic; seek emergency care at the nearest hospital straight away. For routine visits, the details on the contact page are the best way to confirm arrangements before you arrive.
