A named consultant
You are assigned a doctor, not a floating pool. If that doctor is on leave, the covering name is written on the board and on your sheet.
About the hospital
City Hospital
A private super-speciality hospital next to the government medical campus in Sector 32, built for patients who want a named consultant and a written plan.
Since 2011
We opened because night duty in this neighbourhood had nowhere quiet to send people.
Meridian Care began as a 90-bed hospital run by a group of Chandigarh clinicians who were tired of handing families a referral slip at midnight. The building now holds 240 beds, 12 operating rooms, a catheter laboratory, a Level-II neonatal unit, and diagnostics on the same campus.
We are a private hospital. We do not claim a government accreditation we have not been awarded. What we do claim is a habit: the Emergency note becomes the first page of the inpatient file, and a discharge summary is printed before the bill is argued.
Legal name: Meridian Care Super Speciality Hospital Private Limited.
How we work
Four rules the floor actually uses
The file travels
Diagnostics sit on the patient record. You should not carry a stack of papers between floors unless you choose to.
Consent is not a corridor chat
Procedures, anaesthesia, and imaging with contrast are explained in writing. Signatures are dated. Emergency consent follows the guardian plus doctor rule used in Indian hospitals.
Language at the desk
Registration and nursing handovers run in English, Hindi, Punjabi. Ask; do not wait to be offered.
