Now if we could only get a hospital in Snooky. Why does Kampot have a new hospital and not Snooky.

Example of the clinics in Snooky:

Recently an American friend of mine went to the clinic most every expat uses in Snooky. He had lesions on his forehead. The head doctor at this clinic said it was a bacterial infection, he had seen it many times and dug it out. The friend ended up going to America were the hospital is dealing with his squamous skin cancer. Clinics in Snooky, one step above witchdoctors.

I was in Sihanoukville a few years back, just passing time inbetween contracts. I had some kind of boil or bite or sting on the outside of my thigh. I went to a clinic in town, and agreed a reasonable price to be looked at and have it drained if necessary.
He injected me with an 'anaesthetic', which could only have been water as it did absolutely nothing, then proceeded to slice away at the area with his scalpel. Immense pain. I gritted my teeth and saw it as a challenge, and to be honest the thing was pus-filled and needed draining. Then he began to squeeze and slice, so the pain just amplified.
Meanwhile, a lady that I assumed to be the clinic cleaner wandered in, looking like she had just been gutting fish, or assisting in a birth or slaughter of some kind. What a time to mop the floors, I thought. Where's the privacy as I lie here with my pants around my thighs, covering my junk? What was most suprising was that next, the quack gave the scalpel to the woman and she had a good go at it too. That was enough, so I asked for a dressing as I wanted to leave.

Suddenly the price had tripled, but my blood was boiling so I threw him a $5 bill and cursed loudly. The sorry looking patients idly sat around, gawping at the TV, didn't even blink.
