The ENT and Head Neck Cancer Hospital and Institute
Plot No.-F-12, Sher-e-Bangla Nagar, Agargaon, Dhaka-1207
Bangladesh is a developing country facing a multitude of health problems with a large emphasis on the diseases of the ear, nose, and throat (ENT). The main ENT-related problem causing morbidity is deafness. It is most common in rural villages.
There are about 1 million cancer patients in Bangladesh, and 30% of these patients are ENT-related. At present, limited facilities are available for the treatment of these patients. Consequently, well-to-do patients go abroad to treat ENT & Head-Neck Cancer-related diseases. For a population of 160 million people, there are only 250 beds in government hospitals for ENT patients.
Even the private sector and NGOs are struggling in this sector. With a view to improving the situation, some philanthropist social workers, doctors, and other professionals formed The ‘ENT and Head-Neck Cancer Foundation’ and started an ENT & Head-Neck Cancer Hospital in April 2004 with a very limited facility in a rented property in Dhanmondi, Dhaka.
