PESHAWAR: Three more senior doctors of the Lady Reading Hospital (LRH) resigned and joined other institutions due to unknown reasons; but according to certain faculty members they decided to quit after being denied their long overdue promotions.
Also, the faculty members claimed that the three doctors had quit their jobs due to the unfriendly working environment in the hospital.
“The three doctors who left LRH were noted names in their specialties. They worked in difficult circumstances in LRH and I believe they resigned due to two reasons, first denial of long overdue promotions and second the unfriendly environment in the hospital,” said an official of the hospital administration.

PESHAWAR: A picture of two men covering with a shawl a woman giving birth to a child at the main entrance of Lady Reading Hospital (LRH)’s Gynaecology department went viral on Saturday with many people criticising the hospital administration for denying access to the patients brought to its emergency.
Presently, the LRH administration has suspended all other services and dedicated the hospital to the patients suffering from the coronavirus.
According to sources in the hospital, a poor family had brought a lady due to complications in her pregnancy but the security guards allegedly didn’t give them access to the doctors inside the gynaecology department of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa’s largest public sector hospital.
