The Out Patient Department complex consist of Consultation rooms for General and Surgical Gastroenterology, Plastic Surgery, Pediatric, E.N.T., Gynaecology, Medicine,and Opthalmology.

This facility has been setup with state-of- the-art equipment & is manned by an experienced team of technicians and doctor. All biochemical, hormonal, serological, haematological & microbiological investigations are available on a 24 hrs basis.

These facilities consist of Ultrasound diagnostics and X-Ray. Our hospital is equipped with three highly advanced Ultrasound Machines, three X-Ray machines including a C-Arm, which can take live video x-ray images.

Among the various general, laparoscopic and gastroenterological surgeries our hospital has routinely done Laparoscopic Surgeries such as Cholcystectomy, Appendectomy, Hernia, Hiatus Hernia, Rectopexy, GJ & Vagotomy, Cystos-Gatrostomy etc.

This Department has done many appreciable plastic surgeries such as cleft lip, cleft palete and other birth deformities routinely. Many successful reimplantation surgeries for amputed hand and finger has also been done successfully. Among aesthetic surgeries, Liposuction, Dermabrasion, Face-lifting, Rhinoplasty and Scar revision has been done successfully.

This department has done many surgeries such as septoplasty, functional endoscopic sinus surgeries (FESS), tympanoplasty etc.

Our hospital is equipped with highly sophisticated equipments for Orthopaedic surgeries such as C-Arm, C-Arm compatible Electromatic O.T. Table with Orthopaedic attachment and other orthopaedic surgery instruments.

This department has done many gynaecological surgeries such as Laparoscopic Ovariotomy and Laparoscopic Adhesiolysis.

For the support of child health care, our hospital is equipped with baby incubators, phototherapy for neo-natal jaundice and other paediatrics equipments.

This department is responsible for prescribing anesthesia to operating patients and taking care of critical patients. Many equipments such Oxymetry, Ventilators and Monitors support the full functioning of the unit.

This department has performed surgeries for cataract, IOL insertion etc.

This is one of latest area our hospital is advancing in. Urology department has equipment for extracting/breaking stones of Urinary tract. Extra Shock Wave Lithotripsy (ESWL) is an equipment for removal of stones from urinary tracts by breaking down the stones into small sand-like particles which then passes with urine. PCNL, URS and CLT are highly advanced procedures performed at our hospital for removal of stones from kidney, urinary tracts and bladder.

Our hospital is equipped with three highly advanced Ultrasound Machine. Among the various Ultrasonography we perform Whole Abdomen examination, Upper Abdomen Examination, Lower Abdomen Examination, KUB (Kidney and Urinary Bladder), Appendix Area and Gall Bladder Area. We also perform special examinations for Obstetrics and Gynaecology such as TVS, Folicular Studies and Foetal Well Being.

In the field of X-Ray imaging we are equipped with three sophisticated X-Ray Machines, viz., We got a portable 100 mA X-Ray Machine, One 300 mA fixed X-Ray Machine and one live video X-Ray imaging machine (known as C-Arm). C-Arm is used for hairline reduction in orthopaedic surgeries, foreign body removal, ERCP, ESWL, Pacemaker placement, PCNL and URS.

Endoscopy is the visual inspection of the interior of the body through a small circular tube containing fiber optics. The endoscope is inserted into an orifice allowing a surgeon or physician to view internal organs. Sometimes the procedure is simply for diagnostic purposes and other times the procedure is used for treatment purposes, such as the removal of a tissue sample or removal of a polyp or tumour. There are many types of endoscopy.

Upper GI endoscopy is the endoscopic examination of the upper portion of gastrointestinal tract by endoscope for diagnosing or treating of diseases of this area. It is a procedure performed by a gastroenterologist, who uses the endoscope to diagnose and, in some cases, treat problems of the upper digestive system. This procedure is used to discover problems of swallowing difficulties, bleeding, indigestion, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, reflux, or chest pain. Upper gastro intestinal endoscopy is also called esophagogastroduodenoscopy. It is examination of the upper intestinal tract using a lighted, flexible fiberoptic or video endoscope.

Lower GI (gastrointestinal) endoscopy is the examination of the entire colon of the rectum and sigmoid colon. In this procedure a flexible tube consisting of thin fibers of glass and attached to a powerful light source is passed into the lower GI tract for direct visual observation. Lower GI endoscopy is used to obtain specimens, remove polyps, diagnose bleeding, inflammation or tumors.

Nasal endoscopy is the examination of the entire nostril using video imaging system. Nasal Endoscopy is used to diagnose bleeding, inflamation and polyps in the nostril.

Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangio Pancreatography (ERCP) enables the surgeon to diagnose diseases in the liver, gallbladder, bile ducts, and pancreas. In combination with this process, endoscopic sphinecterotomy can be done for facilitating ductal stone removal. ERCP is very important for identification of abnormalities in the pancreatic and biliary ductal system.

ERCP is a valuable tool that is used to diagnose many diseases of the pancreas, bile duct, liver and gallbladder. Structural abnormalities suspected from symptoms, physical examination, laboratory tests, or x-rays can be shown in detail and biopsies of abnormal tissue can be obtained if necessary. ERCP can make the important distinction between whether jaundice (yellow discoloration of the eyes and skin) is caused by diseases that are treated medically, such as hepatitis or structural diseases, such as gallstones, tumors or strictures (obstructing scar tissue), which are treated surgically or endoscopically. In patients who are not jaundiced but have pain or laboratory abnormalities suggesting biliary or pancreatic disease, ERCP may also provide important diagnostic information. ERCP can be used to determine whether or not surgery is necessary and is helpful in providing the anatomic detail the surgeon needs to plan an operation when surgery is needed. The information provided by an ERCP is far more detailed than that provided by standard x-rays or scans. Several conditions of the biliary or pancreatic ducts can be treated by therapeutic ERCP techniques that can open the end of the bile duct, extract stones and place stents (plastic or metal drainage tubes) across obstructed ducts to improve their drainage.

ESWL is short form for Extra Corporeal (outside the body) Shock Wave Lithotripsy (breaking up of stones using sound wave). This procedure breaks up the stones in kidney and ureters without surgery into fine sand like particles which subsequently passes out with urine. It is considered to be the most superior, safe, modern, and scientific procedure of removing stones.

     ESWL

PCNL (Per Cutaneous Nephro-Lithotomy), involves the removal of large kidney stones via a small hole made in the abdomen, using telescopic instruments. Conventional surgery is thus necessitated in few cases only. It requires hospitalisation for a period of 2 to 4 days at the most.

CLT is a procedure in which an ureteroscope is passed through urethra upto the bladder and removes stone with a basket. It requires general anaesthesia and may require hospital stay for 2 to 4 days. A catheter in the ureter may be needed to aid urine drainage.

Uretero-Renoscopy (URS) is a procedure in which an ureterscope is passed into the ureter through urethra right up to the kidneys and removes the stone with a wire basket. Different types of URS instruments are used like different sizes of rigid ureteroscope and ‘flexible ureteroscopes’. Depending upon the size of the stone, different techniques are used for stone removal or disintegration. It requires general anaesthesia and may require hospital stay for about 4 days. A catheter in the ureter may be needed to aid urine drainage.

Among the various Key hole surgeries we are performing Laparoscopy, Thoraicoscopy, PCNL and Arthroscopy.
