Scarcity of Doctors in Ranni Taluk Hospitals


Ranni Taluk hospital is facing a real scarcity of doctors and this is despite the increasing number of patients coming to this hospital. The minister level discussion had agreed to provide 6 doctors to the Taluk hospital in Ranni, but the decisions still remains in the papers and has not been implemented so far . Few days back the Health Department Directorate had  issued a circular regarding the appointment of two doctors, but the doctors are yet to join.

It was Minister V S Shivakumar  who promised to provide 6 doctors to Ranni Taluk hospital in the month of June itself. The hospitals management had got information regarding the appointment of two assistant surgeons who are yet to join. Few months back there was  an order to appoint one anesthetist and an eye specialist and even these two has not yet arrived at the hospital.

The Ranni Taluk Hospital is really facing serious scarcity of doctors and has even closed down its  emergency department.
