Saang Health Center

Saang Health Center (មណ្ឌលសុខភាព​ស្អាង) is a hospital in Preah Vihear, Cambodia — one of 9 health services we map across the province, and part of a wider dataset of 228 mapped locations in Preah Vihear. In Khmer it would be described as មន្ទីរពេទ្យនៅព្រះវិហារ. It sits at 13.65382, 105.25984, which is the coordinate any Cambodian tuk-tuk or PassApp driver can be shown directly if the name is unfamiliar to them.

As a health service, it serves both residents and visitors passing through Preah Vihear. It has no official website, so opening hours and prices are best confirmed by phone or by asking locally on the day — small businesses in Cambodia change hours seasonally and close for family events and festivals.

The easiest way to find Saang Health Center is by nearby landmarks. It lies roughly 200 m south of ACLIDA Bank, and about 400 m north-west of អធិការដ្ឋានជ័យសែន Cheysen Police Station, with Preah Entrong Temple a further 600 m north. Drivers in Preah Vihear usually navigate by these anchors rather than street numbers, so naming the closest one gets you there faster than an address.

From the centre of Preah Vihear, a tuk-tuk or PassApp ride is the standard way to arrive; short in-town trips generally cost US$1 to US$3, and longer provincial runs are worth agreeing in advance. Rented motorbikes are widely available from guesthouses, and self-driving is realistic on sealed roads in the dry season — less so between June and October, when heavy afternoon rain floods side streets and unpaved approaches. The "Get directions" link on this page opens the exact coordinates in Google Maps for turn-by-turn navigation.

Saang Health Center is listed as a hospital in Preah Vihear. Pharmacies in Cambodia usually open from early morning until about 8pm or 9pm and sell most common medicines over the counter, while clinics run morning and late-afternoon sessions with a break in the middle of the day. Hospitals keep emergency departments staffed around the clock, though after-hours diagnostic capability varies a lot outside Phnom Penh and Siem Reap.

Payment is normally cash on the spot; international insurance is rarely billed directly outside the large private hospitals in the capital. For anything serious, travellers are commonly referred or evacuated to Phnom Penh or Bangkok, so keep your insurer's emergency number and your passport with you.

Saang Health Center is not isolated: our map records 8 other mapped locations within a short ride, including ACLIDA Bank (bank, 200 m south), អធិការដ្ឋានជ័យសែន Cheysen Police Station (police, 400 m north-west), Preah Entrong Temple (place of worship, 600 m north), Preah Entrong Temple (place of worship, 600 m north). Pairing a visit here with one or two of those makes a more efficient half-day, especially if you are paying a driver by the trip rather than by the hour.
