Location of Kalimati Clinic

About Kalimati Clinic

Kalimati Clinic was established in 2002 in collaboration between American and Nepalese medics. It is located around 150 kilometers west of Kathmandu in Kalimati, Tanahun, Gandaki Zone, Nepal.

This is an out-patient clinic with its own 7 room building, constructed with the help of local people and ongoing financial input and fund raising from the founder, Dr Arjun Pant. Initially, the clinic was staffed by one doctor, two paramedics and an office assistant. Now the clinic is run as a charity and provides general medical aid for the local population (50 to 60,000 people) but is staffed by only one paramedic and one office assistant. The clinic is well attended by the local population, and around 10-12 patients come to the clinic daily for treatment for diarrhoea, dysentry, fever, scabies, helmianthiasis, simple pneumonia, acute peptic disease, intestional colic and for wound management. Initially, the clinic offered free vaccinations but in the current financial circumstances, this can no longer be sustained. Please visit About Us page for more details.
