Only half baked Doctors are assigned here, while full baked Docs work in Colombo. Sad that poor people who pay taxes are ill treated always by the Govt.

What is not reported is how long this hospital took to be built. If memory serves me right around 20 years at least.

Very good move. Best women’s hospitals should be established in all the provinces. Women need to be looked after well. The problem is qualified staff?

Thank you for former German Chancelor Late. Dr. Helmut Kole and German people for their assistance. It’s a great service for poor people in Sri Lanka. We need to invest more health and education in the country to uplift people’s living standards.

Yes after 19 years, this was rebuilt by German donors after Tsunami struck the Mahamodara hospital

Dr. Jeyaraman Devarajan Thursday, 28 March 2024 02:36 PM

This is a great news to all. The doctors, nurses, and other medical staff must provide the best service to our people. In addition, to this patients and visitors should give their full support to the hospital administration to keep the hospital clean and tidy.

The sleeping Minister corrupt NIMAL SIRIPALA SILVA was responsible for the delay. A minister in every government like Chameleon WIJEDASA R. When will this curse end Thank you Germans for helping a country where politicians robbed and bankrupted.
