http://www.suhrawardyhospital.gov.bd/
Shaheed Suhrawardy Medical College Hospital-ShSMCH is one of the best public &
tertiary level Hospital of Bangladesh situated at Sher-E-Bangla Nagar, Dhaka-1207Center of the Capital. This hospital (former ‘Ayub Central Hospital’) was planned to be
established by the central government (of former Pakistan) as a full-fledged general
hospital in Dhaka with modern medical facilities.
Most of the specialized Hospitals of Bangladesh are located near-by to this. And it is the
birthplace of many of those; Center for control of Rheumatic fever and heart diseases
(CRF & HD), NICVD, NIO, NIMD and NITOR.
Chronological Steps of Advancement In July 1963- The initial scheme to establish a 200 bedded general hospital was
proposed. The proposal was approved by National Economic Council in the same
year.
In 1964- This hospital started its journey to serve people. A two storied outpatient
department (OPD) was constructed over about 19.8 acres of land where outdoor
services including pathology, radiology as well as indoor facilities; firstly with 5 beds
and then 25 beds were included.
In 1972- After Independence of Bangladesh, immediately after our great liberationwar, a renowned American philanthropic and orthopedic surgeon Professor. Dr. R. J
Garst came to Bangladesh as the head of a medical missionary team. This great man
organized a health camp, for treatment and rehabilitation of war-wounded freedom
fighters as well as general people within this campus which was later shifted to
Agargaon, Dhaka and named as RIHD (Now NITOR).
Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman re-named this hospital after the name of great
patriotic and legend of democracy of this land, late Huseyn Shaheed Suhrawardy as
‘Shaheed Suhrawardy Hospital’ and sanctioned 75 indoor beds with outpatient
Service.
In 1983- An extension project profile was submitted for 500- bedded hospital to be
completed within 3 years. But this expansion project was delayed due to beauracratic
hazards; it was re-planned for 300 indoor beds in the first phase to be further
extended in subsequent phases. Later Bangladesh Government & IOC signed an
agreement to complete this project with 375-bedded indoor facilities as well as
pathology, radiology and causality service.
In 1997- 2nd December, with new decoration and extended indoor facilities, then
honorable prime minister,Sheikh Hasina inaugurated three storied new extension
building behind outdoor. And this time, this hospital’s indoor service was upgraded in
large scale (with major medical departments) to accommodate all types of patients.
In 2005 - 4th October: A meeting of planning committee of MOH & FW primarily
decided to establish a new medical College in the Shaheed Suhrawardy Hospital
premises, and admit 100 students for MBBS course for 2005- 2006 academic session.
