CGHS Dispensary, Dover Lane

CGHS Dispensary, Dover Lane is a government-run outpatient healthcare facility under the Central Government Health Scheme that provides primary medical care to central government employees, pensioners, and their dependents. It functions as a wellness and referral centre rather than a full hospital, focusing on general consultations and basic treatment. Patients requiring advanced care are referred to empanelled CGHS hospitals in Kolkata.

The dispensary operates as a primary healthcare unit and does not have inpatient beds, emergency wards, or surgical infrastructure. It provides consultation rooms, basic examination services, and pharmacy dispensing support for CGHS beneficiaries. Advanced diagnostics and specialized treatments are arranged through referral to larger CGHS empanelled hospitals.

Services include outpatient consultations, routine health checkups, chronic disease management, prescription dispensing, and referral coordination. It supports beneficiaries in accessing specialist care and diagnostic services under the CGHS network. Preventive healthcare guidance and follow-up management are also part of its core functions.

This dispensary operates exclusively under the Central Government Health Scheme (CGHS), which provides cashless healthcare access for eligible central government employees, pensioners, and dependents. All medical services are governed by CGHS rules, and referrals are managed within the CGHS empanelled hospital network across Kolkata.
