    What are the best hospitals in Cambodia?

    Royal Phnom Penh Hospital is Cambodia's best overall hospital with 24/7 emergency care and international standards. In Siem Reap, Royal Angkor International Hospital is the top choice. For the highest emergency standards, International SOS Medical Centre in Phnom Penh offers expatriate doctors and evacuation services.

    • Royal Phnom Penh Hospital: best overall, 24/7 emergency (+855 23 991 000)
    • International SOS: best emergency care, evacuation available (+855 23 216 911)
    • Sunrise Japan Hospital: best health screenings and imaging
    • Royal Angkor International: best in Siem Reap (+855 63 761 888)

    Overview of Healthcare in Cambodia

    Cambodia's healthcare system has improved dramatically in recent years, particularly in Phnom Penh where several international-standard private hospitals serve both locals and foreigners. However, there remains a significant gap between private international hospitals and public facilities.

    For travelers and expats, the key principle is simple: use private international hospitals for anything beyond the most basic care. They cost more but offer reliable diagnostics, trained staff, and proper medication. For serious or complex medical issues, Bangkok remains the regional referral center and is only a 1-hour flight from Phnom Penh.

    In any medical emergency, call International SOS (+855 23 216 911) or go directly to Royal Phnom Penh Hospital (+855 23 991 000). Do not wait for an ambulance — take a taxi or tuk-tuk directly. Cambodian ambulance response times are unreliable.

    Emergency Tips

    • Do NOT wait for an ambulance: Take a tuk-tuk, taxi, or Grab directly to the nearest international hospital. Ambulance response times in Cambodia are unreliable (30-60+ minutes).
    • Carry emergency cash: Keep $200-500 USD accessible. Some hospitals require a deposit before treatment, even with insurance.
    • Download hospital locations: Save hospital addresses in Google Maps offline before traveling to rural areas.
    • Know your blood type: Carry a card with your blood type. Blood supplies in Cambodia can be limited for rare types.
    • Medication allergies: Carry a note listing all medication allergies in English and Khmer if possible.
    • Contact your embassy: In serious medical situations, contact your embassy. They can help coordinate care and communicate with family back home.

    For medical evacuation to Bangkok, International SOS can arrange flights within 4-6 hours. Bumrungrad International Hospital and Bangkok Hospital in Thailand are the nearest world-class facilities for complex cases. Evacuation costs $10,000-25,000 without insurance.
