In view of the current dip in Covid-19 patients, PGIMER has decided to resume walk-in patients for physical visit to the New OPD from Monday.

Accordingly, the following protocol will be followed in New OPD of PGIMER from Monday.

Registration for Tele-consultation in New OPD will be done from 8 am to 9 am on the same phone number as before i.e 0172-275991 which has 19 lines.  

Registration of walk-in patients for physical visit to the New OPD which was earlier stopped will now be started and will be done from 9.15 am to 11 am at the respective registration counters.

Online registration for physical visit to all OPDs which is currently capped at 30 patients per department will be increased to 50 for all departments and 100 for Opthalmology, Hepatology & Internal Medicine.

The institute requests the public visiting OPDs of PGIMER to follow all Covid appropriate behaviour. The fight against Covid-19 is still on and large gatherings of people can lead to its spread, PGIMER said in a statement.
