Phaholpolphayuhasena Hospital is Kanchanaburi province's main government hospital, a large public facility on the bank of the Kwai Noi river in the city centre. Named after Field Marshal Phahonphonphayuhasena, it operates as a regional hospital under Thailand's Ministry of Public Health, reported at around 200 beds with roughly 100 doctors -- by far the largest hospital in the province. It runs a 24/7 emergency department and serves as the principal public referral centre for Kanchanaburi, with provincial public bed occupancy reported around 97%, a sign that demand for public beds is real and non-emergency waits can run longer than at a private facility. As the province's main public option, it offers substantially lower costs than Kanchanaburi's private hospitals such as Synphaet Hospital Kanchanaburi, at the trade-off of longer waits and more limited English-language support outside emergencies.

As a Thai public hospital, Phaholpolphayuhasena is oriented primarily toward the general Thai population rather than international patients, with more limited English-language support than the private Synphaet Hospital Kanchanaburi -- expect a public-hospital experience (longer waits, much lower cost) and confirm current services directly with the hospital.
The hospital sits on Saeng Chuto Road in Pak Phraek Subdistrict, on the Kwai Noi riverbank in Kanchanaburi's city centre. Kanchanaburi has no rail transit within the town itself; most patients arrive by car, motorbike taxi, songthaew or Grab.
It is a public government hospital operated under Thailand's Ministry of Public Health (MOPH) -- Kanchanaburi province's main public referral centre, distinct from the private Synphaet Hospital Kanchanaburi and Sai Yok Hospital in the same province.
