NIA Panchkula to offer Ayurveda-allopathy combo treatment

1 2 Chandigarh: The National Institute of Ayurveda ( NIA ), Panchkula , is set to become the first govt institute in northern India to fully embrace an integrative medicine approach. Now, patients can consult allopathic doctors and ayurvedic specialists, sitting at one place, who would offer holistic healthcare. NIA Panchkula , an extension centre of the esteemed National Institute of Ayurveda, Jaipur, stands as one of only two such referral institutes under the ministry of AYUSH nationwide. Dr Gaurav Kumar Garg, deputy medical superintendent of the hospital, said, "Recently, officials from the Command Hospital and Civil Hospital Sector 6 visited our institute, expressing keen interest in our integrative approach." This strategy will ensure collaboration between allopathic and Ayurvedic specialists, ensuring that patients benefit from the combined strengths of both medical systems. He said, "Presently we have a radiologist, pathologist and anaesthetist. We will expand the intake where the allopathic doctors will visit doctors in our OPDs and will work as a team."
