Shaukat Khanum cancer hospital Peshawar inaugurated
Talking to senior anchorperson Hamid Mi in his prpgramme "Capital Talk", Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf chairman and SKMCH founder Imran Khan said that the hospital was so successful that even a senior leader of the Afghan Taliban militant movement went through treatment there.
Talking at the ceremony, PTI chief said that SKMCH Peshawar will act as a role model for all the hospitals in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. British High Commissioner to Pakistan Philip Barton was also present.
Speaking at the inauguration ceremony, Khan said "construction of a state-of-the-art cancer hospital in Peshawar was a dream which has now come true". "No one can influence the hospital's policy of equal treatment".
"There had been many occasions of happiness in my life but I was so excited over completion of the cancer hospital in Peshawar that I couldn't even properly sleep last night", Imran Khan remarked. He said that the authorities had been able to raise funds for the SKMCH Peshawar only because of the unmatched performance of Shaukat Khanum Lahore. Constructing a new hospital at a cost of Rs 4 billion at a time when the annual deficit of the one in Lahore is Rs 3.5 billion looked impossible. It is the second specialized Cancer hospital of the country after Lahore. "The remaining 20 million will be donated to the hospital in the name of my sons, Suleman and Qasim", he said.
This is the second such facility built by Imran Khan led Shaukat Khanum Memorial Trust after the PTI chief's mother died of cancer. "It will be the most modern hospital in Pakistan", Khan said in another tweet. "I decided there that all patients who couldn't afford to pay would be treated free of charge", he said. The hospital has the capacity of 400 beds, Dr. Faisal Sultan, the chief executive officer SKMCH&RC Lahore, said adding initially, there would be 20 chemotherapy beds, six emergency room beds, 12 admission beds, two intensive care unit beds, radiology services, including mammography, plain radiology and ultrasonography and pathology laboratory at the hospital.
In the first phase, the hospital will provide X-ray, CT scan, MRI, chemotherapy and pathological services to the patients.
