PESHAWAR: Senior consultants have been resigning from the province’s biggest Lady Reading Hospital allegedly due to lack of job satisfaction, unfriendly environment and no prospect of promotion for faculty in near future.
Officials at LRH administration say that those quitting their jobs don’t fulfil promotion criteria and are unwilling to do research besides remaining absent due to which they have been made accountable.
During the past three years, more than 24 consultants have quit LRH and joined other hospitals or proceeded abroad, according to consultants, who have resigned from their positions at the hospital.
