It’s been 24 years since I knew St. Joseph’s Hospital, Visakhapatnam. Couple of times I was admitted for minor and major surgery and very often I have admitted others for treatment. My experience all through was unique each time. Last week on 29th July was my last visit to the hospital to admit one of my community member. Before we reached the hospital everything was taken cared of. Immediate attention was given at the arrival and the treatment process commenced. What I wanted to say out of my personal experience is the ambience, the hospital staff, Doctors and nurses and the administration are doing a great job. Even many from the neighbouring states too are referred to this hospital because of its quality service and health care. During the pandemic the state and district administration chose this hospital for the Covid treatment. If the the administration was not satisfied with the Hospital it would not be chosen for the pandemic care.
