Bhiwandi BGP Hospital OPD Now Open Six Days a Week Amid Rising Patient Demand

To accommodate the growing number of patients, the Outpatient Department (OPD) at BGP Hospital in Bhiwandi has extended its operations from five days to six days a week. The Bhiwandi‑Nizampur City Municipal Corporation implemented this change to improve access to medical care for local residents.

Previously operating Monday to Friday, 9 am to 4 pm, the OPD will now also be open on Saturdays from 9 am to 1 pm, excluding public holidays. Daily patient visits have surged from 15–20 at launch to around 200–250, prompting the extension.

The hospital offers a range of services, including general OPD consultations, emergency screenings, child vaccinations, ARV injections, and infectious disease testing, and is staffed by specialists in gynecology, pediatrics, dentistry, microbiology, along with multiple MBBS doctors.

Officials also noted that a 50‑bed full hospital facility is under development at the site, though it is not yet operational due to pending approvals. Residents are encouraged to utilise authorised municipal health services and avoid unlicensed practitioners.
