Hyderabad: Health Minister Damodar Raja Narasimha on Tuesday said the Telangana Institute of Medical Sciences (TIMS) in Sanathnagar, commonly known as Sanathnagar TIMS hospital, will open by Ugadi and start treating patients.
After inspecting the site, the Minister noted that the main building is almost ready, with only some electrical work left. Teams have already installed most equipment, including operation theatres, diagnostic labs, and a modern MRI machine.
“Our goal is better public healthcare, not publicity,” Raja Narasimha said. “The 1,000-bed hospital will offer full services by Ugadi.”
