Malakpet area hospital commonly known as ‘police dawakhana’ not only lacks basic facilities but the patients here are treated very badly. Bribery is prevalent in the hospital. The negligence of the concerned department and willfulness of the authorities have added to the woes of the patients. It must be noted that free diagnosis is done in Malakpet area hospital and free medicine is distributed by the State Health Department.
Though the hospital claims to provide free treatment for the diseases like TB, cough, fever, allergy, tooth ache and other ailments but the truth is contrary to that.
A large number of Muslim women belonging to poor and middle class families arrive here to benefit from the facilities provided by the government. But unfortunately the hospital staff takes money from the poor people. Poor people are treated very badly and disrespectfully.
