Vile Parle Gets a Modern 5-Storey Urban Health Centre

Vile Parle has upgraded a single-storey Ayurvedic dispensary into a five-storey Urban Health Centre, improving healthcare facilities for local residents. The centre now offers yoga, acupressure, ayurveda and allopathy services under one roof.

The facility, named the Shri Manohar Parrikar Urban Primary Health Centre and Ayurvedic Dispensary, is located in Ward 84. It includes OPD services on the first and second floors, a yoga and mental wellness centre on the fifth floor, and a dialysis unit planned on the third and fourth floors, which will start soon.

The dialysis facility will help local kidney patients by reducing travel to distant hospitals and will offer treatment at nominal BMC-approved rates. The centre is expected to benefit thousands of residents, especially senior citizens and economically weaker sections, by providing affordable healthcare close to home.
