Abstract: Doctors need to be well-rounded. Not only knowledge in the field of medicine is important, but a foreign language like English is also undeniably significant today. This research was conducted to study the King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital ophthalmologists’ attitudes towards English reading and writing skills and the problems they encounter. The study was conducted with 46 of the ophthalmologist staff working at King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital including all residents and fellows. The questionnaire, comprised of 28 items of Likert-scaled questions, was distributed to the participants through Google Form. After the information was gathered, the descriptive statistics were applied to present the result. The findings showed that the ophthalmologists at King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital strongly agreed that the ability to read and write in English was the most important factor in their advancement. Furthermore, they strongly agreed that the most problematic aspect of English reading was that they don’t know enough vocabulary. Similarly, for the problem of English writing, the participants strongly agreed that they cannot use a wide range of vocabulary"
