History and Overview of Military Hospital Rawalpindi

Military Hospital Rawalpindi traces its origins to 1887, when it was established as the Indian Troops Hospital to provide medical support to British Indian Army personnel stationed at the Rawalpindi garrison. Following Pakistan's independence in 1947, it was renamed Military Hospital Rawalpindi and placed under the command of the Pakistan Army Medical Corps. Over the following decades the hospital expanded steadily in both bed capacity and clinical capability, evolving from a military-focused facility into a comprehensive multi-specialty hospital also accessible to civilian patients.

A major milestone in the hospital's development came with support from the United Arab Emirates, which contributed to a significant modernization of the facility. The hospital was subsequently renamed Pak Emirates Military Hospital (PEMH) in recognition of this partnership. It became the first hospital in the Pakistan Army to receive ISO certification, a standard it has maintained alongside its JCI and PMDC accreditations. The hospital is commanded by a serving Major General of the Army Medical Corps, with a Brigadier as Deputy Commandant and a dedicated family wing headed by a Lady Medical Officer of Brigadier rank.

Today Military Hospital Rawalpindi operates with 1,200 inpatient beds, a 95 percent bed occupancy rate, and a clinical team of doctors, specialists, sub-specialists, nurses, paramedics, and support staff drawn from some of Pakistan's most respected medical institutions. It serves as a regional tertiary care referral center for both the armed forces and the civilian population of Rawalpindi and Islamabad.
