Our Staff

100 Cambodian and 23 expatriate staff

Mercy Medical Center is staffed with workers from across the globe. Our expatriate workers are a conglomerate of Christian organizations with a heart to care for the people of Cambodia through healthcare. Training in every area of operations is an integral part of our work.

Our Cambodian staff is the backbone of MMCC. They serve as doctors, nurses, pharmacists, lab and medical assistants, housekeepers, guards, groundskeepers, patient counselors, health educators, receptionists, couriers and more!
