Medical Services in Phnom Penh
Though the medical facilities are still limited and in many cases not up
to international standards, there has been much improvement in recent
years, offering a greater range and quality of services. There are a
half dozen or so international clinics and foreign doctors in town, most
listed below. Calmette Hospital and the international clinics can handle
most medical problems but serious illness or injury may still require
medical evacuation, probably to Bangkok or Singapore. In addition to
general medical services, the international clinics also offer
evacuation and medical translation services. Though the cost of medical
care is fairly nominal in Cambodia, the cost of medical evacuation is
exorbitant. Medical insurance including evacuation insurance is highly
advisable.
In case of medical emergency, proceed to the main hospital (Calmette
Hospital) or one of the major international clinics such as
International SOS. Be aware that the ambulance services are not
always prompt and the public emergency telephone numbers sometimes go
unanswered. Also be aware that only a couple of the foreign clinics
accept insurance. Most places including the hospital expect cash or
credit card payment at time of treatment.
