OPD

OPD stands for Outpatient Department, which is a part of a hospital or clinic where patients receive medical care without staying overnight. It includes services like consultations, minor treatments, diagnostics, and follow-up visits. Patients visit the OPD for their appointments, receive diagnosis or treatment, and then leave the same day. This setup helps provide efficient, comprehensive outpatient care, easing the workload on hospital wards and allowing patients to get timely medical attention without the need for hospitalization.
