Very friendly interaction with Dr Piyush Kapila nodal officer pg admissions,one of the most positive person ever come across with. Other secretarial staff was also quick and co operative------------------Rajesh Sinhal

It is the best government hospital in Himachal,less crowded (in case of few departments only) and good doctors,but there are some problems like lift will always be crowded and you will have to wait for longer time to go to 12th floor.7th floor is most crowded with medicine opd and gastroenterology department dealing with it. ENT on 10th floor and the skin department have less crowds.-------------------Pragyanand Kumar
