The number of doctors in these hospitals will not only increase after getting the status of Post Graduate Hospital, Secretary noted. There will also be more posts for postgraduate and house officer doctors. This will enable doctors across Balochistan to receive postgraduate training, Balochistan Health Secretary Noorul Haq Baloch stated.
On the other hand, modern medical facilities will be available to the people in their nearest hospitals besides Quetta. This will reduce the need for them to come to Quetta and will also reduce the burden of hospitals located in the provincial capital.
