Common pitfalls

FAQ

How much does a consultation with a French-speaking doctor in Siem Reap cost?

Count 40-80 USD at Naga Clinic Siem Reap. Independent French-speaking doctors (rare) charge 30-60 USD.

Is there a reliable dentist in Siem Reap?

Yes, several private dental clinics (European Dental Clinic, Pacific Dental Clinic). Count 30-100 USD for basic procedures (scaling, simple care) and 200-500 USD for heavy procedures (crown, implant).

For a delivery, better Siem Reap or Phnom Penh?

Phnom Penh, without hesitation, except for a simple low-risk pregnancy. Royal Angkor in Siem Reap does deliveries but the technical platform is more limited. For high-risk pregnancy, Royal Phnom Penh or Sunrise Japan in Phnom Penh (3-4 hours by road or 30 minutes by plane).

Go urgently to Royal Angkor International Hospital for stabilisation, then request a medical transfer to Phnom Penh (Royal Phnom Penh / Sen Sok International) or Bangkok (Bumrungrad) depending on prognosis.
