The History of St. Peter's Clinic  

 

The diocese has opened a diocesan clinic in 2005 for the service of the poor and vulnerable people living in the town of Pathein. The clinic has been running with own little resources and donations that the diocese can contribute. During Nagis Cyclone in 2008, the clinic was of great service to the cyclone affected victims reaching out the affected villages. Health talks on personal hygiene and seasonal diseases are given to the village community.
This diocesan clinic is now staffed with 2 doctors and 3 nurses located in St.Peter’s Cathedral compound. Open daily in the morning for about 3 hours and the remaining time is used for providing assistance to those patients to be transferred to the general hospital of Pathein.
