SLG Hospital services laudable during COVID-19: CBI former JD Laxminarayana

Hyderabad, 7th April 2023: "Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam always used to ask people to dream big. SLG Hospital is serving people around with state-of-the-art medical facilities, and the best medical infrastructure. I should congratulate the CMD of the hospital, Sri Dandu Sivarama Raju", said CBI former Joint Director V.V. Laxminarayana. He said that the SLG hospital has served COVID-19 patients a lot with a dedicated 250-bed facility. He spoke on the occasion of the World Health Day program, which was organized at SLG Hospital premises.

He said, "I am very happy that World Health Day and the birthday of Dandu Sivarama Raju, CMD of this hospital, are the same. This hospital is seen as a testimony to his vision. The commitment of the doctors here and the state-of-the-art facilities available to the patients. It's amazing to see all of this. Air ambulances can land directly at the hospital, and from there they can take the patients directly to the operation theatres. The pharmacy will have the facility to give medicines directly into the wards without the need for patients' helpers to run from floor to floor. Equipment worth crores of rupees to treat cancer patients is also available here.

I have a special relationship with Dr. Ranganathan. It is because of him that my wife can get up and stand on her feet. He operated on her for 9 hours almost 20 years ago. Executive Director DVS Somaraju's vision is very good. Special packages for the elderly will make them accessible to all aged people. I would like to congratulate the hospital management, the doctors, and the nurses. This hospital is not only for the people of Bachupalli but also for the entire country. I sincerely congratulate the hospital management for providing the best medical services to the people at a lower cost".

Wanted to serve people over profits: CMD

Dandu Siva Ramaraju, CMD of the hospital, said, "When we thought of setting up SLG hospital, we did not think about the profits from it at all. Just wanted to provide the best medical care to the people of the region as well as the people of the state, and neighboring states. Accordingly, the hospital has a good public response and it is fortunate to have doctors who can effectively treat all kinds of health issues. I hope that with the full cooperation of all, the hospital will become even more successful".

Free package for people above 60 years of age: Soma Raju

"On the occasion of World Health Day, it has been decided to provide free medical care to the elderly above 60 years of age under the aegis of SLG Hospital," said DVS Somaraju, Executive Director. ECG, 2D Echo, X-ray, RBS, and Dexascan will be done completely free of cost from the 7th to the 14th of this month. There will also be consultations with physicians and cardiologists, he said. If the doctors suggest any additional tests, a 50 percent discount will be given on all of them. He urged all people to make use of this package and maintain their health. Doctors of different specialties, nurses, and other staff from various departments of the hospital participated in the event.
