Pakistan Kidney & Liver Institute and Research Center Lahore
Chief Minister Mian Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif has inaugurated Pakistan Kidney & Liver Institute and Research Center Lahore on 25th of December 2017. PKLI & RC is the largest and most modern Kidney & Liver Institute in South Asia. PKLI & RC is a hospital and at the same time a training institution. It is located in Knowledge City Dera Chahal Lahore just opposite to DHA Phase 6 Lahore.
People have appreciated the efforts of Punjab government to provide better medical facilities in Pakistan on the same lines like Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital & Research Centre Lahore. PKLI & RC is the part of Knowledge City to have campuses of world famous institutions and research centers. People who visit India for the transplant of Kidney & Liver will get the world class medical facilities locally. This will save the lot of time and capital.
Salient features of Pakistan Kidney & Liver Institute and Research Center (PKLI & RC) are;
50 acres land
151,824 square feet covered area
500 bed in-patient facility
100 bed emergency center
100 bed out-patient dialysis facility
100 bed ICU
820 beds (extendable to 1500 beds)
20 operating rooms
10 same day surgery suites
5000 employees
PKLI & RC is one the best project in the national history as it will not only provide the medical facilities or create the jobs, but will also uplift the local infrastructure. Due to the massive traffic flow in future, Punjab government is already widening Bedian Road Lahore. Similarly all access roads will also be upgraded very soon.
Although the construction of Lahore Ring Road Southern Loop has failed to uplift the stagnant property market but generally development projects are considered as boosters for reality sector. As many employees will need to stay near to hospital, we can assume that PKLI & RC will have long term positive impact on the nearby real estate market.
