Bangladesh Health Minister Sardar Sakhawat Hossain Bokul has ordered the closure of Doctors Care Hospital and Diagnostic in Shyamoli, Dhaka, following allegations of serious irregularities. The directive came after his visit to the hospital on Monday afternoon, two days after Eid. The minister announced that from Tuesday, inspection drives will begin across private clinics, hospitals, and diagnostic centers, starting from Shyamoli to Asadgate and later expanding nationwide.
The action follows a television report revealing that unqualified individuals, including brokers and clinic staff, were performing surgeries at the hospital. During his visit, the minister spoke with patients, relatives, and alleged victims who gathered to share complaints. He instructed that patients under treatment be transferred to other hospitals, including Pangu, Shishu, and Shaheed Suhrawardy hospitals.
Health officials said the upcoming inspection campaign aims not to shut down institutions but to ensure proper healthcare services. Facilities found with irregularities will be given 72 hours to one week to improve; otherwise, they will face closure.
