“The seven-storey medical centre with 150 beds is scheduled to open in 2026,” she said.
The hospital will offer various medical and surgical treatments such as anesthesiology and critical care, general surgery, obstetrics and gynaecology, paediatrics, ophthalmology), orthopaedics, otorhinolaryngology, urology, cardiology, gastroenterology, nephrology and geriatrics.
