What people say about our team

Compassionate care, every step of the way.

"When I needed elective major surgery, Dr. Gerard and the team were there every step of the way. They swiftly arranged an appointment with the surgeon, and within a week, I was in surgery for my condition."

"Can't be satisfied more! Always here for you to get in touch, very welcoming service in the office and they don't seem to make things complicated"

"I am very sceptical about insurance, especially in Thailand, but with LUMA I only had good experience yet. Especially their telephone and e-mail support. I had an accident and they managed everything."

"Friendly and professional service of the highest standard"

"I had a good experiece with my hospital claim. The claim team really put in the effort in pre-approving my claim in time for the surgery. They called and emailed me with the update on the process everyday. I felt very well taken care of during a stressful time."

"Excellent insurance service. Could not speak highly enough of their coverage and service. I've unfortunately encountered health issues since arriving in Thailand, and needed a couple of operations which they approved readily and paid for upfront."

"Great service. One of the best health insurance around. Customer service team is quick to respond and helpful all the time. Been with Luma for few years and would definitely recommend them."
