Royal Phnom Penh Hospital

This is despite the fact that I wrote on my registration form that I DO have an allergy to a common medicine, and even had a chat with the guy at the registration counter about the spelling of the symptoms. This is not a trivial mistake, and it has left me feeling very glad about our decision to go elsewhere.

Rich Khmer whom want to deliver a baby in a nice / safe environment often do so at Khema in Tuol Kork (http://web.khemaclinic.com/). I don't have experience with them when it comes to deliveries, but Khema have treated both my wife and my child to my satisfaction. I recommend them. Send them an e-mail and inquire, you will even get an answer!
Good luck with the rest of the pregnancy.

Re: Royal Phnom Penh Hospital
Insurance companies aren’t stupid. If it is expensive and they still want their customers to go there then they have a good reason.violet wrote:Pity those whose insurance (as provided by their employer) specifically states Royal Phnom Penh as the hospital of choiceBubble T wrote: ↑Sun Jul 29, 2018 7:25 pm An update: As part of cancelling our follow up appointments, I had to be emailed a release form to get some documentation from them, and the release form included the information I gave them when I registered (me and my wife are both registered there).

Royal PP aren’t perfect for sure but they are still one of the best in the country.
Yeah, pity those who are fortunate to have insurance providing them with the best in-country medical care. Poor buggers.
Re: Royal Phnom Penh Hospital
I take your point, however all the care in the world means nothing if basic, but death causing, mistakes are made. Doesn't matter how much you pay. Odds of dying some degree higher than the overstretched hospitals in many western countries. But, yes, fortunate to reduce the chances of dying vs average Cambodian's chances.
Thailand and Vietnam is still the best option for treatment.

Re: Royal Phnom Penh Hospital
If I thought there were no safe options in Cambodia we'd go somewhere else, I work remotely now so we can be wherever we want (aside from places with harsh visa restrictions). Since I started asking around, Khema has been the one people are recommending to me the most and it's not far from where we live so it's looking like that will be the best option. If there are any major complications in the lead up, we'll go to Vietnam.Kammekor wrote: ↑Mon Jul 30, 2018 9:59 amWhile this is of course pretty bad, never forget where you actually are....
