Dhaka residents make regular use of established health services to address daily wellness requirements, drawing on public hospitals, community clinics and private facilities listed in official directories.

Public Hospitals Serving City Residents

Dhaka Medical College Hospital on Secretariat Road and Kurmitola General Hospital on New Airport Road operate under the Directorate General of Health Services. These sites provide core medical support for local communities seeking treatment without needing to travel outside the city. Residents in central and northern areas rely on these locations for general care that fits into ongoing health routines.

Community Health Centres and Clinic Hours

The Urban Primary Health Care Services Delivery Project-II in Hazaribagh runs one 24-hour Comprehensive Reproductive Health Care Center along with six Primary Health Care Centers open from 9 am to 4 pm and twelve Satellite Clinics open from 10 am to 2:30 pm. These operate for Dhaka South City Corporation residents and allow people to attend appointments during set daytime windows. Dhaka Community Hospital Trust adds further options with 24-hour emergency, pharmacy and admission services plus outpatient clinics available from 8 am to 10 pm.

Private Hospitals with Full Specialisations

Private options include Evercare Hospital in Bashundhara, Labaid in Dhanmondi, Square Hospitals in Panthapath and United Hospital in Gulshan 2. These sites cover all specialisations and maintain hotlines such as 10678 for Evercare and 10606 for Labaid. Community members in eastern, southern and central neighbourhoods use these hospitals when seeking specialised attention that complements public services.

Free Mobile Health Advice

Government health centres offer free 24-hour health advice by phone, with district and sub-district hospital numbers published on www.dghs.gov.bd. Residents can obtain guidance without visiting a facility in person, supporting those who prefer remote contact for initial wellness questions.

Local use of these services continues through established schedules and contact points. Individuals seeking personal health support should consult a medical professional at one of the listed facilities or via the published advice lines.
