Shaheen Nagar clinic

This out-patient clinic and 20 bed short stay unit served 139,587+ patients in 2025, saving families an estimated ₹42.7 crore in medical costs. It is one of the busiest clinics of its kind in the Hyderabad area. While in India I attended a national seminar on health NGOs in Bangaluru organized by Azim Premji’s group and learned that the Shaheen Nagar clinic that we are funding completely may be the one of the most comprehensive and busy clinics in the country.

50% of the beneficiaries experienced improved mental and emotional health after receiving good quality primary health services over a period of time.

A GAME CHANGER

Inpatient 20 bed short stay unit aka tropical disease ward

As you may recall we decided to fund the construction and running of a 20-bed unit on the second floor of the structure.
This unit has been completely full since its opening and has proven to be a game changer. Patients from Dengue fever to Typhoid and a myriad other illnesses that do not require prolonged care are being helped in this unit. Since its opening, it has had 100% occupancy.

There was even a mini epidemic of cholera in slum schools due to contaminated water. We were able to contain it as well.

Lactation Management Centers

In order to promote Breastfeeding at the community level, HHF in collaboration with AMPI USA have set up initially 5 lactation management centers at Khyam Nagar, Rajendra Nagar, Shaheen Nagar, Wadi e Mustafa & Pahadi Sherif with aim to provide privacy to mothers for feeding their babies, while they come for treatment and also to promote the concept of Breastfeeding at the community level so that mothers are able to express milk for longer periods of time to their babies.

Impact

Free care is changing the economics of the slums

Unlike other clinics, our care is entirely free. A survey of the families who use the Shaheen Nagar clinic shows what that means for some of the poorest households in Hyderabad.
