Comilla General Hospital (Comilla Sadar Hospital)

About Hospital

Ask for directions to Comilla General Hospital and locals will usually mention Dhormo Sagor, the large man-made pond about a kilometre north of the hospital that the Tripura king Dharma Manikya I had dug back in 1458 - a place with enough history that both Sachin Dev Burman and Kazi Nazrul Islam are said to have spent time nearby during their years in Comilla. The hospital itself sits close to Comilla Government Women's College and the Education Board Jame Mosjid, on what is officially known as Sadar Hospital Road, in the heart of Comilla Sadar.

It is worth being clear about one thing early on: this is not the same institution as Comilla Medical College Hospital, which is a separate teaching hospital over in Kuchaitoli that was established in 1992 and now runs with 500 beds. Comilla General Hospital, sometimes called Comilla Sadar Hospital in everyday conversation, is the older town-based government facility, registered separately under the Directorate General of Health Services with its own facility code. People sometimes mix the two up when searching online, so if you are trying to reach the Sadar Hospital specifically, it helps to say so.

The exact year Comilla General Hospital itself was first established could not be pinned down in any source checked so far - please verify. Comilla town's own institutional history runs deep (the railway station alone dates to 1895), but the hospital's specific founding date does not appear to be documented in any publicly available record.

How to Reach the Hospital

The hospital is on Sadar Hospital Road in Comilla Sadar, close enough to Dhormo Sagor pond and Comilla Government Women's College that either can serve as a landmark if you are asking someone for directions locally. It is roughly 1.25 kilometres from the Cumilla Export Processing Zone if that helps orient you coming from that direction. Remember to specify "Sadar Hospital" or "General Hospital" rather than just "Comilla hospital" when asking around, since Comilla Medical College Hospital in Kuchaitoli is a different, larger facility that people may assume you mean instead.
