The Spotlight Series
Local health care,
in their own words.
We sit down with the doctors, physios and specialists we refer to every week — so patients in Phnom Penh know who they're being sent to, and why.
Episode 01
Dr Nadia Wong
Medical Doctor, Phnom PenhGood healthcare isn’t only about treating illness. It’s also about identifying risks early, understanding your body and taking action before a problem begins to affect your life.In the first episode of Movement Spotlight, we sit down with Dr Nadia for a practical conversation about preventive health. She explains the “three highs” commonly seen in Cambodia—high blood pressure, high cholesterol and high blood sugar—and why these conditions can go unnoticed without regular checks.We also discuss what people should pay closer attention to after the age of 40, why runners can benefit from health checks tailored to the demands of their training and why visiting a doctor shouldn’t be something we only do when we feel unwell.We created Movement Spotlight to make trustworthy health information more accessible by introducing the healthcare professionals working in our Phnom Penh community. Each conversation is designed to help you ask better questions, understand your options and make more informed decisions about your health.
