On Tuesday, Delhi Health Minister Pankaj Singh revealed a comprehensive plan aimed at boosting the city's healthcare infrastructure. Key initiatives include the installation of 55 dialysis units at Burari Hospital, a model diagnostic laboratory, and a new AYUSH-based center for mental and wellness care.
During a review meeting, Singh emphasized the government's 'war-footing' approach to ensuring accessible, high-quality medical services for Delhi's residents. The dialysis units are poised to dramatically improve nephrology care in North Delhi, significantly lowering patient wait times.
The government also plans to inaugurate a model diagnostic laboratory capable of conducting 118 essential tests by next month. Additionally, a new Mental and Wellness Centre focusing on holistic Indian healing practices will launch at Burari Hospital, targeting mental health issues such as anxiety and depression.
