Clinics in Muzaffarpur

Just as over the year’s number of hospitals have risen, so has number of clinics. And numbers haven’t just risen for general clinics but also for Ayurvedic and Homeopathic clinics. Most of these clinics though are mainly concentrated in the main city of Muzaffarpur and few other developed towns of the district. For towns and villages that have no access to clinics or even hospitals, state government has set up Primary Health Centers (PHC) for them. These PHCs are managed and run only by government doctors. There are currently 14 PHCs in Muzaffarpur district.

With no dearth of hospitals and clinics, Muzaffarpur obviously has no dearth of chemist shops either. There are in fact hordes of them. Located at all the important locations in main city of Muzaffarpur and other important towns of the district. And amongst these hordes of general medical stores, there are also quite a few Ayurvedic stores too. Run and manages by experienced professionals they remain open till late night.

Even though existing number of blood banks and ambulance isn’t really high, but they are sufficient enough to fulfill emergency needs of the residents of Muzaffarpur. The two most renowned government hospitals SKMCH and Sadar Hospital have their own in-house blood banks. They supply blood to other hospitals of Muzaffarpur as and when emergency need arises. As for ambulance services are concerned, then not all hospitals have it but some of them definitely provide it. All in all, big and populated district like Muzaffarpur definitely needs more blood banks and ambulance services.

While Muzaffarpur lags behind in emergency services, but it definitely doesn’t lag behind in offering good number of Pathological Labs and Diagnostic Centers. There are innumerable and almost all are laced with all the standard machines for conducting high quality blood tests, urine tests, X ray test, scan test etc. Needless to say, all leading hospitals of Muzaffarpur are immensely dependent on these pathological labs and diagnostic centers for correct diagnosis of their patient.
