Chairman's Message
"Healthcare is not just about curing illness — it's about compassion, trust, and unwavering dedication to human well-being."
At Prashanti Hospital, we have always believed that access to quality healthcare is a fundamental right, not a privilege. Our mission has been clear from the very beginning: to offer high-quality, affordable, and accessible healthcare to all, guided by ethical medical practices and a deep commitment to patient care.
We have built this institution with one purpose — to serve the people of Odisha and beyond with the same standard of care that patients would seek anywhere in the world. Today, Prashanti Hospital stands as a testament to that vision: a multi-speciality hospital with 600+ beds, 150+ expert doctors, and a complete digital healthcare infrastructure.
Our journey has been one of service — not just medical service, but service to the community, to the state, and to the nation. We are deeply proud of the trust our patients and their families have placed in us, and we remain committed to honouring that trust every single day.
I invite you to be part of the Prashanti family — a family that stands for compassion, excellence, and an unwavering belief in the sanctity of human life.
Dr. Badrinath Patnaik
