Patients hit as nat’l transplant center lacks space



KATHMANDU: Kidney patients have been hit after Shahid Dharma Bhakta National Transplant Center has not been able to provide treatment to them due to lack of space.

The  Center is chock-a-block with patients after a huge number of kidney patients flock to the Center.

“We have not been able to receive all the patients due to the lack of sufficient space at the hospital,” said Dr Pukar Chandra Shrestha, Executive Director at the hospital.

Kidney patients from home and abroad come to the hospital for treatment. It has transplanted kidneys into 600 patients in the period of five years.

Patients, who come for dialysis and kidney transplantation, have to wait for a long time due to the lack of space.
