Family Health Practice at AISD

The FHP is a primary care clinic staffed by internationally trained medical personnel. Located within the campus of the American International School in Baridhara, the clinic is open to all members of the wider community in Dhaka.

 

Due to the current global pandemic of coronavirus, and for the benefit of our patients and the clinic, we are currently limiting physical acces to the clinic to individuals who do NOT have signs compatible with COVID-19 (predominantly fever, cough, shortness of breath etc.) We will endeavor to keep the clinic open with it's regular hours, including during the lockdown, but please CALL OR EMAIL FIRST before coming to the clinic.

 

In order to provide expanded services to the community and patients who might not be able to come to the clinic, we are now offering telemedicine consultations. The cost of the  telemedicine consultation will be BDT 4500. Please contact the clinic for further details, or to arrange a telemedicine consultation.

 

As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please email us at , or call us at     +880 171 339 6770/1.

 

Sincerely,

 

The Family Health Practice team
