Healthcare in Thiksey is primarily provided by local clinics and a Primary Health Center (PHC) that handles basic medical needs, maternal care, and first aid. Because Thiksey is a relatively small settlement located about 19 kilometers from the regional capital of Leh, residents and visitors rely on Leh for advanced medical care and emergencies. The Sonam Norboo Memorial (SNM) Hospital in Leh serves as the primary comprehensive medical facility for the region. Additionally, traditional Tibetan medicine (Amchi) is widely practiced and deeply respected within the local community.
