Dr. Jesdha Juntiamvong

A specialist in musculoskeletal and joint surgery with advanced expertise in hand and microsurgery. The doctor performs complex procedures involving small blood vessels and nerves—particularly in the hand and fingers—with the aim of restoring function, repairing damaged tissues, ensuring proper blood circulation, and preventing tissue necrosis. These highly specialized surgeries require extensive surgical experience, precision, and advanced equipment such as microvascular instruments and high-magnification operating microscopes. In addition, minimally invasive surgical techniques are employed to minimize tissue damage, resulting in smaller incisions, reduced pain, and faster recovery for patients.

Dr. Jesdha Juntiamvong earned his medical degree from the Faculty of Medicine, Siriraj Hospital, Mahidol University. He subsequently pursued advanced training in Orthopedics (Musculoskeletal and Joint Medicine) at Thammasat Hospital. After gaining extensive clinical experience in musculoskeletal and joint care, he further specialized in Hand and Microsurgery, also at Thammasat Hospital.
Currently, Dr. Jesdha specializes in Hand and Microsurgery at Phyathai Sriracha Hospital.

Dr. Jesdha shared that his interest and passion for this field developed through firsthand experience with accident-related injuries that significantly affected patients’ bones and daily functioning—particularly among working-age individuals. His decision to pursue further training in hand and microsurgery was inspired by his mentors and his view of hand surgery as both a science and an art, requiring exceptional precision, diverse surgical techniques, and a deep commitment to restoring patients’ quality of life.

Patient Groups and Conditions Treated

Dr. Jesdha’s patients generally fall into three main groups:

Patients injured in traffic accidents
Patients with sports-related injuries
Patients who sustain injuries in the workplace

The conditions he commonly treats include bone fractures, nerve compression, trigger finger (locked finger), and chronic nerve inflammation. Treatment plans are tailored to the severity of each condition and may range from conservative management—such as the use of orthopedic devices, physical therapy, medication, and injections—to surgical intervention in more complex cases.

“The Importance of Heart and Experience in Surgical Treatment”

For Dr. Jesdha, the most essential quality of a surgeon is having genuine care and compassion for patients. His work often involves complex and time-consuming surgical procedures, particularly due to Phyathai Sriracha Hospital’s proximity to major industrial areas. As a result, the hospital frequently treats severe occupational injuries, including crushed hands, amputated fingers, fractured elbows, and broken wrists. These cases range from simple fractures to highly complex injuries involving multiple small bone fragments.

“The longest surgery I have ever performed lasted approximately 16 hours. Surgeons in this field must have true passion, endurance, and a strong commitment to patient care. In severe cases that require nerve and tendon repair, extreme precision is essential, which often results in lengthy operations.

Our goal is to restore function as close to normal as possible. When full restoration is not achievable, we aim to preserve the highest level of function with minimal long-term impairment.”

Such cases demand not only technical expertise but also sound judgment, patience, and attention to detail. Dr. Jesdha emphasized that experience plays a crucial role in making critical decisions during surgery, always with the objective of giving patients the best possible chance to regain function and return to their daily lives with minimal limitations.

Compassion at the Core of Surgical Practice

Dr. Jesdha firmly believes that empathy and compassion—the “heart” of a surgeon—are just as important as technical skill. A genuine love for the profession and sincere concern for patients help guide surgeons through the physical and emotional challenges of complex procedures.

“Being a surgeon is not only about refining technical skills, but also about developing patience, empathy, and responsibility for every patient’s future quality of life.”

With his skills and compassion working in harmony, Dr. Jesdha continues to make a meaningful difference in the lives of patients requiring hand and microsurgical care at Phyathai Sriracha Hospital.

24-Hour Surgical Care at Phyathai Sriracha Hospital

Phyathai Sriracha Hospital is supported by a 24-hour on-site surgical medical team, including Dr. Jesdha, along with advanced medical equipment and facilities that enable efficient, multidisciplinary patient care.

“As physicians, we are confident that our team meets high standards of care. In addition to having specialized doctors available around the clock, we are fully equipped with modern medical technology to support emergency and surgical cases at all times.”

The hospital’s strategic location near Sukhumvit Road, the Motorway, and the Laem Chabang Industrial Estate allows rapid access for emergency patients, significantly improving treatment outcomes compared to delayed care.

Preventive Care and Health Awareness

Dr. Jesdha also emphasizes the importance of safety awareness, particularly when operating machinery, and encourages preventive health practices. Patients aged 55 and above, who may experience reduced bone density or osteoporosis, are advised to undergo regular bone density screenings.

Women who experience early menopause, have a petite body frame, a history of fractures, or underlying conditions such as kidney or thyroid disorders are also encouraged to have their bone health assessed. Phyathai Sriracha Hospital offers a range of screening programs tailored to individual risk factors.

“I encourage everyone to prioritize self-care and make adjustments before problems develop. Many patients today suffer from conditions caused by occupational habits, excessive mobile phone use, and prolonged computer work. If you notice symptoms such as pain, numbness, finger locking, or reduced finger mobility, seek medical attention promptly to prevent long-term complications.”
