New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated KK Patel Super Speciality Hospital in Bhuj, Gujarat via video conferencing on Friday (April 15, 2022). The hospital has been built by Shree Kutchi Leva Patel Samaj, Bhuj.

“People of Bhuj affected by earthquake are now writing a new fate with Kutch's 1st super specialty hospital. This 200-bedded hospital will provide people with affordable & quality medical facilities,” said PM Modi. 

"The goal of having at least one medical college in every district and ensuring that medical education was in reach of everyone will result in the country getting a record numbers of doctors after 10 years," the Prime Minister said.

PM Modi also said that two decades ago Gujarat had just nine medical colleges, but the medical education scenario has improved vastly in the last 20 years.

"Now the state has one AIIMS and over three dozen medical colleges. Earlier, only 1,000 students used to get admission in medical colleges of Gujarat, now around 6,000 students get admission in these colleges. AIIMS in Rajkot has started admitting 50 students from 2021," PM Modi said.

According to a press release issued by the Prime Minister’s Office, this is the first charitable super speciality hospital in Kutch and is a 200 bedded hospital.

"It provides super speciality services such as Interventional Cardiology (Cathlab), Cardiothoracic Surgery, Radiation Oncology, Medical Oncology, Surgical Oncology, Nephrology, Urology, Nuclear Medicine, Neuro Surgery, Joint Replacement and other supportive services like laboratory, radiology etc," PMO said.
