    Third largest Teaching hospital in the country, which covers more than 3.5 million population (according to National Census 2012) from entire southern province and surrounding areas. It has almost all the subspecialties and provides good patient care services despite the fact that, it runs with heavy shortages of health care staffs and beds. Still the health care provided and the outcomes are upto the standard.

    One of the largest teaching hospital in Srilanka. The greater part of the staff are useful yet here and there they are not looking and take care about needy individuals. The holding up time is high and some of the time you need to go before 5 a.m to holding up in a line to take your medication.

    Although there were couple of private hospitals in southern region ,Sri Lanka. This is the best hospital you need to visit first for critical situation. Talented specialist consultants work for this government hospital. People who feel this is not clean and need bit calm environment, you can get the nearby private hospital called Ruhunu hospital and you can be treated by same talented specialist consultants. Initially, you will admit to the government hospital in a critical situation but you can direct discuss with the specialist consultants in government hospital to change your hospital. (Specially vital for foreigners) Most of doctors will take over you. Ruhunu hospital accept most of the leading insurance companies. Some of Europe insurance companies under Meera rescue in India. Indian team coordinate hospital team greatly. This is the practical situation that I experienced. As a help If someone need to know more. Write to me [email protected]. Stay safe

    If you're going for a surgery, just get ready to go back home at the last minute because they're cancelling it after doing all the freaking preparations. They don't value peoples' time. They don't understand the commitments that we have to do. They just only think of themselves. If they thought of everyone, they could tell us before we start preparing ourselves for the surgery. Just like the f'd up political system in SL, the hospital system is also f'd up. They're giving favour to their contacts while the poor without connections suffer. This review is from someone whose surgery got postponed for the freaking 6th time.
