D.H.Q Hospital gilgit

The District Headquarters Hospital (DHQ) Gilgit is the largest medical care facility in the entire Gilgit-Baltistan Region. It has now latest CT Scan and MRI facilities for indoor patients. It's emergency unit is open 24/7 with on-call specialists and on duty medical staff. It's dental department is now treating patients with minor procedures, root canals and extraction with sterilized equipments. After the major upgradation and face-lifting of DHQ there is an increase in Daily walk in patients even coming from outside Gilgit city. There are still few issues besides the improvements, like you cannot get medicine here rather you have to purchase it from pharmacies outside the hospital. There is usually long wait for opd checkups. Overall the doctors are highly qualified professionals.

Doctors are very good and highly qualified. Being a government hospital the fee is very nominal, wards are good in cleanliness. They also offer ct scan here as well as MRI. no other hospital in gilgit has MRI except DHQ gilgit. Staff are also good and cooperative. Being district headquarter of gilgit there is always rush here. So you have to come early for your treatment.

Its great to see such kind of facility is available over there. i hope that competent doctors are employed there to provide relief to the people.

Easy to know about unknown places and facilitate others, thanks

This hospital has a long history of serving in the area of health care

I am really sad to mention that a hospital with such qualified doctors is still lacking the services. No one comes to a hospital in good health conditions and it's the single PHQ hospital in whole Gilgit where patients come from every district. I was having a throat infection and I went for a checkup I bought a receipt for an ENT Specialist and I came to know that the Doctor is on a Tea Break from 11:30 I waited and many patients just went to their homes I really felt disheartened as state has built such institution and the people working there are just there for salaries and do even don't care for their patients. Afterwards at almost 1PM the doctor came and when I went for the examination he was already busy with talking to some people there he just wrote down some medicines and told me to use them on time and believe me he just took 3 minutes for a checkup as throat regions are much sensitive and doctor even not checking with proper attention. I bought the medicines from a store and I used them for 5 days still no recovery and I think that institutions aren't responsible for the patients and staff like these are not committed just making their salaries not even properly checking patients.Let me mention some more issues Staff Incorporative. Over Crowded. Most Of The Doctor Are On Holiday From Now. These Doctors Had Given Promotions And Much More But They Are Not Punctually Doing There Job. So Action Should Be Taken Against The Missing Staff As Many Patients Are Suffering Due To Their Absence.

wanted to know if it is open on third day of eid for covid test plz update me

The DHQ Hospital in Gilgit is a major tertiary care unit in the whole of the Northern Areas catering to a population of more than 1.5 million, most of which lives in far-flung areas. But the hospital is in a pathetic condition. Most of the doctors are absent from duty for several days a week . There is always a scarcity of medicines. I don't know when the time will come when ordinary citizens like me will be treated with respect and dignity.

Hospital and good doctors

Awesome
