Best dermatologist in Ho Chi Minh City 2026?

Any recommendations for clinics around District 1 or District 3, and do they take international health insurance? Also curious what a consultation typically costs out of pocket.

I went to Dr. Nguyen Thi Hong at the Victoria Healthcare clinic on Nguyen Van Troi in District 3 and they handled my insurance paperwork directly. Consultation ran about 500,000 VND out of pocket, though eczema follow ups might be cheaper.

Second this, but book ahead, walk-ins wait hours

Weekday mornings, right at opening.

Do they bill your insurer direct or reimburse u later?

arrow_drop_up 2 arrow_drop_down

good to know they file the paperwork for u. did that 500k include the actual prescription or just the consult? asking cause my eczema stuff usually doubles the bill once creams get added

Usually the consult fee is just the exam, creams get billed separately at the pharmacy counter. Ask them to write the generic name, since the branded tubes can run 300 to 600k each and generics are often half that.

Consult fee only, and the pharmacy at FV Hospital on Nguyen Luong Bang charges separately, so budget roughly double once your steroid cream is added.

Prescription's on top, so closer to 900k all in.

Worth checking if they still take your specific insurer in 2026, contracts shift yearly and eczema care often needs pre-auth.

Did they quote u a follow up price too?

Order it as sua da if you want it less sweet, the salt still comes through without the sugar hit. It's a small spot so seating fills up fast on weekends. Grab it to go and walk the alley nearby.

The bac xiu, and go before 8am.

Fine pick, but you left out that they close oddly early in the afternoon, so don't treat it as a late stop. And the queue moves faster than it looks, so don't let the crowd scare you off.

Bac xiu's the move, cash only though.

arrow_drop_up 11 arrow_drop_down

Skip the sugar syrup entirely if you want the salt to actually register, and bring small notes since they rarely break a 500k.

arrow_drop_up 4 arrow_drop_down

Cash tip jar also gets you faster service.

Their ca phe muoi is the actual draw.

arrow_drop_up 2 arrow_drop_down

only caveat is seating, tiny place

arrow_drop_up 0 arrow_drop_down

Eight is early but you'll beat the office crowd that way.

I've only been there once and got the salted coffee since that's the obvious pick, though the coconut one looked better honestly. A detour from District 1 is a stretch unless you're already nearby.
