The Aga Khan University Hospital is known to offer round the clock quality healthcare services. These are 24/7, 365 days a year. Being the leading hospital in Pakistan, AKUH has a great responsibility and offers continuous medical treatment for patients it caters to. The requirement of medical treatment and emergency services is not bound by the time of day, so health care services in AKUH have strategically been structured to ensure that they are provided round the clock in one form or another.
There are many hospitals in the country but AKUH is one of the most dependable in terms of quality of care and consistency in delivering quality care services. While other hospitals also offer 24/7 services, AKUH offers a wider range of services and treatments. This is primarily because of the very large number of departments and medicines that the University Hospital specializes in including treatment of heart, vascular, eye, ear, nose and throat, lungs, teeth, family health, women’s health care, skin, mind, brain, kidney, bladder, gastrointestinal, sports injuries, musculoskeletal, paediatrics, oncology, 24/7 emergency and acute care, diagnostic service, clinical imaging, physiotherapy, rehabilitation, nutrition and anesthesiology.
Private hospitals, on the other hand, do have better service but they either tend to specialize in specific areas of treatment or offer a selected bouquet of medical services. In this respect, AKUH has a great advantage over all other hospitals in the country. Because it is the largest most advanced teaching hospital it can offer services round the clock in every kind of medicine and not just a handful of selected fields.
There are also 24/7 emergency services at AKUH and the hospital has one of the busiest emergency rooms in the country giving out quality emergency care on an urgent basis making it one of the best private hospitals in Pakistan. There is no doubt that in the case of emergencies the first choice of patients is to reach Aga Khan’s emergency services. This preference has been built over decades of delivering consistent quality of health care.
As we all know that AKUH is not just locally but also internationally recognized for the quality of its 24/7 services in surgery, medicine and of course for diagnostic and laboratory. Because of extensive investment in equipment and infrastructure, the hospital also boasts the most advanced all-around equipment for treatment in the whole country.
The primary reason for the quality of service, however, remains the highly dedicated and qualified staff of medical specialists, doctors, surgeons, allied healthcare professionals, and nurses. Most of them are also educated and trained at Agha Khan University Hospital with its state of the art teaching facilities.
Pakistan has been blessed to have such a great facility for medical treatment. Before it was founded, those who could afford it always opted for treatment abroad rather than in the country. Now they have a 24/7 dependable healthcare service provider right in their country. No doubt AKUH is one of the best private hospitals in Pakistan.
