One of the worst possible administration was observed at COVID19 Registration & Testing Facility. For getting prescribed for this testing, you have to go to an opposite direction outside of that building appx half a KM away (to OPD). Once you reach to registration & Testing Facility itself (after getting that prescription), a recipe for disaster that is being perfected by the concerned officials will await you. Once me and my family reached here, Everyone was huffing and puffing over each other, disregarding precautionary SOPs to avoid COVID19, while concerned Officials were probably on leave, leaving behind bare minimum staff to handle all the influx. There was cases of IDs, Names of patients being mixed and so would affect the results 😅. But no one would care... It's a public organisation - that's how they are here (exceptions excluded)! Ps: all of this is for free!!

So I’m going to write a detailed review and procedure on what to do if you want to get tested free at NIH for COVID-19. Please note that you need a prescription from any doctor referring you to get Corona test so don’t just walk in to get tested, always have a prescription from any doctor or clinic before you head to NIH. Remember to take a picture or photocopy of that prescription because they will keep the original prescription for their own record. Please write your mobile number, address and ID Card number on the prescription because it’s necessary and you’ll have to write it there before you get registered so I’d advise to write these details anywhere on the prescription with your own pen before you go there. The best time to go there is around 8:30 - 9:00 am before it gets busy. The registration and test sample windows are just about 5-7 minutes walk from car park, so it’s not a long walk. Park your car carefully so you can drive out easily once done. They will take your prescriptions and give you tokens from one window and then they’ll call you for samples from throat at the other window. If you manage to get there early then it won’t take any longer than total around 20 minutes in the whole procedure. They give 48 hours time for test results but in majority of the cases they will send you a text message by 6 pm same day with the link, username & password for test results. If you don’t receive a text message then better wait for the mentioned time. The staff, as one can imagine in any other “sarkaari idara”, aren’t very helpful or friendly. This may be because of the high influx of people they have to entertain. After you receive your results and if they are positive, you will receive a call both from NIH and district hospital after 2-3 days of test to have a check on you. If tested positive and recovered InshaAllah, you don’t need to get tested again after 14 days as it’s unnecessary. Your body may retain virus for 3 or more weeks but it becomes dead & harmless for your body and untransmittable to others so no need for another test, just end your isolation after 14 days if you don’t persist any symptoms like fever and stuff. I know it was long but I hope it’s helpful.

National Institute of Health is most authentic allergy tests and its veccination in cheap prices. If you have any question please ask freely.

Extremely poor services and management. There is only one window for both ladies and gents to deal with hundreds of patients. The person dealing is very rude, illmannered and have no empathy. The way the cases increasing the services should also improve to facilitate maximum number of people with less time on queues. There should be at least 3 windows to deal with huge number of patients or separate window for ladies and children.

Good experience... Everything is systematic except long gues for deposit of fees. Few suggestions if you are visiting Allergy Centre, NIH 1. Preferably visit around 1 30 pm 2. Bring your Thermos and Ice for storage of Vaccine.

Overall Vaccination is good but Managemet must be improved. Too much Rush. Try to come at 730am for early checkup.Mode of Checkup is As follow 1. Take your waiting Number. 2. Doctor will refer for Tests 3. Take slip for Tests(Rs.550) 4. After test again doctor will prescribe medicines.

A big hospital but with poor services Nursing staff is fine but doctors and reception staff and other hospital uniform staff specially in opd are very rud. Their behavior shows that they are considering public and patients are slaves or animals. The hospital is constructed in acres but only first 100 patients been entertained with above said behavior. One counter issues opd slips at 8am otherwise slip will be issued on reference. This all environment artificially created by senior doctors sitting here. Government should hire energetic people or take an action make them accountable. Sub se buri chez ye k Doctor faaltu ki medician likh k dety hai.aur wo b Local companies ki mehangi medician . Ye confirm hy.k Doctors ka isme kaafi benefit hai.percentage hai.

Specialized centre for allergy diagnostic and treatment . The staff seems cooperative but the number of patients visiting per day are in thosuands so this nullfies their efforts. Fee for the allergy test is Rs 1000 now. One thing that's in abondance here is rush rush and rush.

Staff ,even some doctors, are insincere and dishonest. After long process I got vaccine for pollen allergy and I was not informed about the handling and temperature of vaccine, even after asking them . After a week, I took it to hospital to inject , they rejected telling that it has become ineffective for it became too warm. Another my friend was not told to inject after a week and he injected right after taking the vaccine and got adverse effects and was in a very emergency situation. There are many other people who are not informed clearly and eventually no recovery but adverse reaction. Kindly take action on such evil stuff.

Superb institution. The nutrition department is excellent

A good institute, Stop anti allergic medicine 3 days before. You have to enter with mask as all are with some disease and get small water cooler filled with ice for vaccine from home. ( Here price of a bottle is *3 time high, no one is there to be asked Doctors are too busy unable to even tell you what type of allergy do you have.... After 2 years I would say that the vaccines are useless, as unable to protect even during course of use, dont waist yiur money

A typical government institute with no professionalism at all. Went there for a Covid-19 Test and the way they took the sample was a joke. Subsequently, they never sent the result. I would strongly suggest you to go to any private lab rather than wasting your time here.

It is laboratory for different vaccine production also having allergy center

Went today to get my covid test done but was extremely disappointed by the poor management. The waiting line was crowded with people(most of them being covid patients) without following any SOP's. EVEN THE STAFF MEMBER WASN'T WEARING ANY MASK. Very disappointed.

Poor Management...Long queues..had only 1 person dealing with 3 queues..even staff is not co-opertive..no proper guidance.

Free Covid testing facility is available here. Quite decent staff. Lush green garden type ambience. one feels like typical old islamabad type aroma. When i visited there was ample parking space and no rush. Probably seems like a no go area due to covid testing.

Very nice facility.

Really nice service. They offer variety of tests in affordable cost.

It is unique allergy institute in the world in which treatment process is so cheap that any one can get treTment.

Vaccination center have moderna. Great service👍
