Director's Message
A word of welcome from the Director of St. Stephen’s Hospital, on the values that have earned the trust of generations of patients in Delhi.
Why trust St. Stephen's Hospital with your health?
Often, in conversation, people ask me – why should we take treatment from St. Stephen’s Hospital? After all, you are not as shiny as of many other hospitals. You are located in an area of Delhi which is surrounded by road traffic. What makes you different or special?
My answer is this
- What are you looking for in a hospital? Are you looking for good treatment or good appearance? St. Stephen's Hospital has Doctors who are knowledgeable and up-to-date with current standard medical practices, well experienced and equipped to treat complex medical problems.
- For our Doctors the practice of Medicine is a vocation, not a profession.
- Our Doctors practice ethical medicine, shunning the widespread practice of unnecessary consultations and over-investigation of patients.
- Our Doctors are truthful to their patients.
- Our Nursing care is second to none in Delhi.
- Our staff subscribe to the hospital's motto, which is a Biblical command – 'In Love Serve One Another'.
- We treat people holistically - physically, mentally, and spiritually. We build relationships with our patients, which is why, after more than 140 years of service to the people of Delhi, we still enjoy their trust.
In other words, Why not trust St. Stephen’s Hospital with your health. There is no better alternative.
— Dr. Sudhir Cecil Joseph, Director
