Guntur has been renowned for medical treatment. The present government general hospital was started on June 22, 1848. In 1897, the first women’s hospital, American Evangelical Lutheran Mission Hospital, with 50 beds, was started in Kothapeta by Dr Anna Sarah Kugler. In 1954, the Government Medical College was established.
But later, being attracted to the development of Hyderabad, health sector concentrated expansion in and around Hyderabad and now Guntur city is going to witness a huge expansion of health sector in view of new capital.
