Doctors Hospital and Medical Center is a 250-bed private, for-profit hospital located in Lahore, Punjab, Pakistan. It is attached to Lahore Medical and Dental College as a teaching hospital.[citation needed]
In 1996, a small group of Pakistani doctors practicing in the United States held a retreat in Pennsylvania to discuss the creation of a new medical facility in Pakistan. These doctors moved back to Pakistan and started to build the Doctors' Hospital and Medical Center. Many colleagues from different specialties joined the core group, and the hospital was established in 2000.[1]
Death of a 3-year-old
[edit]In 2015, the Pakistan Medical and Dental Council (PMDC) held Doctors Hospital responsible for the death of three-year-old Imanae Malik six years earlier. Despite being found guilty of negligence, the PMDC fined the hospital only Rs 100,000 "for being responsible for this sad incident which could have been avoided if the hospital management was vigilant in its administration”.[2]
