Dr. Pongwat Polpong, MD — Chief Physician & Neurosurgeon, EDNA Wellness Bangkok

Dr. Pongwat Polpong is a board-certified neurosurgeon and the Chief Physician at EDNA Wellness, a physician-supervised regenerative medicine and stem cell clinic in Bangkok, Thailand. With over two decades of surgical and clinical experience in neurological and spinal medicine, Dr. Pongwat brings an evidence-based, precision-focused approach to stem cell therapy and regenerative treatment planning.

Why a Neurosurgeon for Stem Cell Therapy

Stem cell therapy for neurological conditions — including stroke recovery, spinal degeneration, and traumatic brain or spine injury — requires deep anatomical knowledge and precise clinical judgment that only comes from surgical training. Dr. Pongwat's neurosurgical background means every stem cell treatment protocol at EDNA Wellness is designed with the same diagnostic rigor applied in the operating room: thorough patient evaluation, imaging review, realistic expectation-setting, and individualized dosing — not a one-size-fits-all menu.

Conditions Treated at EDNA Wellness

Under Dr. Pongwat's medical oversight, EDNA Wellness offers physician-supervised stem cell therapy programs for stroke recovery and neurological support, spinal degeneration and lower back conditions, knee osteoarthritis and joint preservation, shoulder injuries, and systemic IV stem cell infusions for longevity and healthy aging. All treatments use umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSCs) produced in a GMP-certified, ISO-accredited laboratory validated in collaboration with Thailand's Institute of Scientific and Technological Research (TISTR).

Consultations

Dr. Pongwat personally evaluates all stem cell candidates before treatment is recommended. Patients are assessed based on medical history, imaging, and overall health profile. International patients can arrange a pre-visit consultation via video call.

Education

Medical Training & Education

Dr. Pongwat completed his Doctor of Medicine at Siriraj Hospital, Mahidol University — Thailand's leading medical institution — followed by advanced neurosurgical specialization at Prasat Neurological Institute, Bangkok, and international fellowship training at the International Neuroscience Institute in Hannover, Germany, one of Europe's foremost centers for neurosurgical innovation.

Clinical Experience

Dr. Pongwat served as an Attending Physician at Prasat Neurological Institute from 2010 to 2022, one of Thailand's national centers of excellence for brain and spinal disorders. His clinical background spans complex neurosurgical procedures including craniotomy, endoscopic lumbar discectomy, aneurysm management, and spinal decompression surgery — conditions directly relevant to patients seeking regenerative and stem cell therapies for neurological and musculoskeletal conditions.

Research & Publications

Dr. Pongwat is an active researcher with peer-reviewed publications in international journals including the Journal of Neurological Surgery, the Asian Journal of Neurosurgery, and the Korean Journal of Parasitology. His research spans lumbar spine surgery outcomes, subarachnoid hemorrhage management, spinal arteriovenous fistulas, and complex neurosurgical case studies — reflecting a career built on clinical rigor and evidence-based practice.

He has contributed to cadaveric surgical workshops at Khon Kaen University's neurosurgery program, demonstrating ongoing commitment to surgical education and precision technique.
