I see AHC as an excellent place to learn and work at. I love the culture of our hospital, treating all patients as if they were our own child.”

Our ethos of compassionate and high-quality medical care, professionalism and respect for patients’ rights are good examples for Cambodia’s developing health system. I have learned so much here at AHC and I love our culture of sharing knowledge and skills through trainings.”

Regarding my role, I love my job so much, as education is vital to build our staff’s capacity as well as health care professionals and medical students in Cambodia. They will use the knowledge and skills acquired at AHC in their daily practice, and in doing so, improve our healthcare system nationwide.”
