Pema Gatshel Hospital

The district hospital for Pema Gatshel Dzongkhag in southeastern Bhutan, serving a catchment population of approximately 24,600 across ten gewogs. With around 20 beds, it provides general medicine, obstetrics, pediatrics, dental care, and emergency services as part of Bhutan's free healthcare system. The district's steep terrain and dispersed settlements make healthcare access challenging, and the hospital coordinates closely with a network of Basic Health Units and outreach clinics to reach remote communities.
