Royal Phnom Penh Hospital

Phnom Penh, Cambodia

Last verified 2026-06-01

Royal Phnom Penh Hospital is a 100-bed private facility established in 2014 and widely regarded as one of the most capable hospitals in Cambodia for expatriates and international visitors. It operates as part of the Bangkok Hospital Group network, which gives patients access to clinical protocols, specialist referral pathways, and quality standards aligned with its Thai parent organization. The hospital covers a broad range of disciplines including internal medicine, general surgery, pediatrics, cardiology, obstetrics, orthopedics, and a 24-hour emergency department staffed by bilingual clinicians. English is routinely spoken throughout the facility, which reduces the communication barriers that patients often encounter at state-run institutions. Direct billing arrangements with Cigna Global, Allianz Care, Pacific Cross, and AXA mean most expatriate health plans are accepted without upfront payment demands. The hospital serves as a practical first point of care for minor to moderately complex conditions; however, neurosurgical, oncological, and other high-acuity cases are typically stabilized on-site before transfer to Bangkok or Singapore under the Bangkok Hospital Group's network coordination. Procedure pricing is substantially below Thai or Singaporean equivalents, making the hospital cost-effective for insured and self-pay patients alike. It remains the default choice for the Phnom Penh expatriate community and long-stay tourists requiring reliable private hospital care within Cambodia.
