Expanding Medical Excellence

OUR NEW HOSPITAL

Namaste,

Greetings from Sunil Modi, President and Trustees of The Surat Charity  Fund and Sheth Shri P T Surat General Hospital.

THE SURAT CHARITY FUND is an ancient institute of Surat Region . Surat city was badly effected due huge fire in  19th century. Industries of the Surat city were destroyed and human life was at threat. In order to come out
from such hazardous situation, “ THE SURAT HINDU CHARITY FUND TRUST” was established on 20th March 1841 by businessmen community and Bombay based influential personalities, having their roots in Surat. Later, this institution is known as “THE SURAT CHARITY FUND”.

Earlier known as Late Dr. Shantabai Hospital and latterly after joining of Late Dr. Harihar Bhagwanji Bhatt as  Chief Medical Officer (CMO) & Surgeon, the Hospital achieved rapid progress. Patients from various provinces such as Khandesh, Interior part of The Surat, Valsad and Bharuch Districts were used to visit the hospital for medical treatment and by the time the hospital was considered to be unique of South Gujarat.
Presently the Hospital is known as ‘BHATT HOSPSITAL” because of dedicated services rendered by Late Dr. Harihar Bhatt.

On receipt of donation from Sheth P T Trust, the Hospital was re-named as ‘ SHETH P T SURAT GENERAL HOSPITAL”.
By phase of time, the city seen rapid progress and development, however due to traffic movement problem near hospital area, its progress got suffocated. For these reasons, I feel happy to announce that the Board of Trustees decided to start new hospital near Madhuvan circle, Adajan.
