The Department of Pulmonary Medicine is actively involved in teaching, training and research in the field of TB & Respiratory Diseases.

Tuberculosis is not only a worldwide health care issue but also an important health problem of our country.

The department provides inpatient care to tuberculosis, lung cancer and other non-TB respiratory diseases patients and free anti-retrovirus treatment to patients suffering from TB-HIV co-infection.
