Our Journey
Starting from one small theatre in the 1960's, the operating facilities in the NDJH have grown by leaps and bounds to complement the surgical specialities in the hospital. Today there are 4 major operation theatres and one minor/septic theatre. Approximately 1,400 Major and 3,500 Minor Surgeries are carried out annually.
The theatres have all the essentials required to perform major and minor surgery including good lighting systems, diathermy and electrically operated tables.
