Wonderful news! But will these facilities be available only for defense personnel or civilians too? Many middle-class families struggle to afford such advanced healthcare in private hospitals.

As someone whose mother suffered from chronic bronchitis, I appreciate the new Bronchoscopy Suite. Hope more govt hospitals get such facilities across India. Our armed forces always lead by example!

While this is commendable, I wish they'd also focus on basic healthcare in rural areas. Many villages still lack proper vaccination centers and primary health clinics. Priorities need balancing.

The Army Hospital R&R has always been at the forefront of medical excellence. Proud to see them adding more facilities. My uncle got treated there last year and the care was exceptional.

Adult vaccination is so important yet so ignored in our country. Hope they create awareness campaigns too. Many Indians don't know they need booster shots even as adults. Good step forward!
