“OMNI Group, which runs five super speciality hospitals across Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, has some of the best doctors in India, be it Cardiology or Ortho Oncology and this will benefit the people of Odisha. We would be adding a host of new facilities with a new block within next three months. The block will house OPDs, a state-of-the-art dialysis unit, Cathlab for cardiac procedures and an auditorium. We are also going to start a nursing college soon,” Dr Patnaik said.

He also announced plans for setting up a new hospital which would be located between Cuttack and Bhubaneswar along NH-5. The proposal has been submitted to the State Government. It would be a multispeciality hospital with specific focus on Trauma Care. Besides, there are also plans to open hospital and centres in other parts of the State, he added.
