The hospital becomes the first ever to score 100% in its first attempt

Mumbai; August 03, 2019: P. D. Hinduja Hospital & MRC was recently awarded the coveted Pharmacy De Qualite (PDQ) Platinum Grade certificate by Bureau Veritas in Pharmacy Management on July 23, 2019. The hospital also became the first hospital in the country to score 100% in its first attempt.
