The hospital's success in reaching 50 transplants reflects its commitment to:

  • Cutting-edge medical technology
  • Highly skilled professionals
  • Affordable and accessible treatment options

A Moment of Celebration and Hope

The symbolic release of 50 balloons by Dr. Thomas Mathew was more than just a celebration—it represented the courage of the patients, the dedication of the medical team, and the hospital’s mission to save lives through innovative healthcare solutions.

As Believers Church Medical College Hospital continues its journey in advanced medical care, this milestone serves as a reminder of the hospital's unwavering dedication to excellence in bone marrow transplantation and patient-centered care.
