North Bengal Medical College Hospital Launches 30-bed Urology Department
Urology Department
Siliguri: The North Bengal Medical College & Hospital (NBMCH) has inaugurated its dedicated urology department at the super-specialty block on Monday. The new unit is set to provide comprehensive care for patients suffering from various urological conditions.
This newly launched unit includes a 30-bed inpatient facility, with 20 beds dedicated to male patients and 10 to female patients. This addition is expected to significantly improve the availability of tertiary urological care. Dr. Sanjoy Mallick, Medical Superintendent-cum-Vice Principal of NBMCH, had earlier confirmed that the department would commence operations this week, and on Monday, it opened as scheduled.
As per the recent media reports by Telegraph India, “We are yet to come up with the operating theatre at the super-specialty block, and thus, surgeries of patients will be carried out in the old building. The new unit has adequate beds with separate sections for male and female patients,” he said on Monday.
NBMCH, located in Susrutanagar on the outskirts of Siliguri, is the oldest and largest state-run referral hospital in North Bengal. The super-specialty block, inaugurated a few years ago, has been gradually expanding its services, offering a wide range of medical specialties to patients not only from North Bengal but also from neighboring states like Bihar, Assam, and Sikkim.
