Under the agreement, ANTH will offer special discounts on consultations, laboratory tests, radiology, OT procedures, in-patient facilities, medicines, and other essential medical services. In an exceptional gesture of support, the hospital has extended extraordinary discounts to the families of injured police officers (Ghazi) and the martyred personnel who made the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty.

Dr. Areej Neyazi, who was earlier named the healthcare ambassador to ICT Police by the IG Islamabad Police, expressed her commitment to providing accessible medical care. “While delivering advanced and affordable healthcare to everyone remains our priority, ANTH is also dedicated to raising awareness about disease prevention to reduce the overall burden of illnesses in Pakistan.” She further stated, “We deeply appreciate the tireless efforts of Islamabad Police and are honored to serve their employees and families.”
