State of hospitals

November 20, 2017

Hospitals in Skardu are facing an acute shortage of medicines. They do not have modern machinery and patients have to go to Islamabad for important tests like a CT scan or an MRI.
Residents have raised this issue so many time, but the authorities have not take any action. It is inconvenient for patients to travel to Islamabad or other cities for their treatment. The government must take notice of the matter.
