GB Pant Hospital OPD registers new patients from 7:30 am to 11:00 am, Monday to Friday, and the hospital registers only patients who have been referred to it. This is the Delhi hospital, officially the Govind Ballabh Pant Institute of Postgraduate Medical Education and Research (GIPMER), run by the Government of NCT of Delhi at 1 Jawaharlal Nehru Marg, near Delhi Gate. It is a super-specialty centre, so the rules differ from a general hospital. This guide gathers the GB Pant Hospital OPD hours, the referral condition, the fee position, lab and scan timings, the address and the official contact numbers in one place.
General information, not medical advice. Hospital rules change. Facts below were read on 17 October 2026 on the hospital’s official website, listed at the end. Anything we could not confirm is flagged in the text. This guide is about GB Pant Hospital in New Delhi, not the GB Pant hospital in Port Blair.
Table of Contents
GB Pant Hospital OPD timings at a glance
The OPD Services page on the hospital website separates registration hours from clinic hours. Both matter, because registration closes well before the clinics do. The table below shows the GB Pant Hospital OPD schedule as the hospital prints it.
| Item | Official timing |
|---|---|
| New registration | Monday to Friday, 7:30 am to 11:00 am |
| Old (revisit) registration | Monday to Friday, 7:30 am to 12:00 noon |
| Saturday registration | New and old patients, 7:30 am to 11:00 am |
| OPD clinics | Monday to Friday, 8:00 am to 2:00 pm; Saturday, 8:00 am to 12:00 noon |
| Special clinics | Several departments hold afternoon clinics from 1:00 pm to 2:00 pm |
| Pharmacy | Monday to Friday, 8:00 am to 4:00 pm; Saturday, 8:00 am to 1:00 pm |
| Closed | Sundays and all gazetted holidays |
The page also says staff take a 45-minute lunch break at any time after 12:30 pm. Plan to finish registration early, because a revisit counter that is open until noon does not mean a new-patient counter is.
Who can register at GB Pant Hospital OPD?
This is the single most important rule. According to the hospital’s OPD Services page, only patients referred to the institution are registered, and appointments are first come, first served.
In practice that means GB Pant Hospital OPD is not a walk-in clinic for every complaint. It is a referral centre for heart, brain, liver, digestive and mental health problems. If you have not been referred by another doctor or hospital, ask your treating doctor for a referral note before travelling.
The OPD page says only referred patients are registered, but not what format of referral is accepted, so ask the OPD help line before you travel.
Departments seen in the GB Pant Hospital OPD
The hospital’s home page lists its departments. The OPD schedule page shows clinic rooms for the main specialties:
- Cardiology: OPD rooms 431, 433, 434 and 435, with pacemaker and paediatric cardiology clinics.
- Cardiothoracic and Vascular Surgery (CTVS): rooms 409-410 and 412, with a heart failure clinic.
- Gastroenterology: rooms 234, 239, 240 and 241, with a liver clinic.
- Gastrointestinal (GI) Surgery: rooms 211-212, with special clinics in rooms 214-215.
- Neurology: rooms 326, 327 and 328, with stroke, epilepsy and headache clinics.
- Neurosurgery: rooms 309-310.
- Psychiatry: rooms 4A, 6, 8 and 15, with child psychiatry and de-addiction clinics.
Which doctor sits on which day is set by each department and is printed in the official OPD roster. The schedule table on the website is hard to read in places, so use the department’s own roster for the day you plan to visit. We do not list doctor names here because rosters change.
The department-wise OPD schedule is published as a page on the hospital website (“OPD Schedule (Department Wise)” on gbpant.delhi.gov.in). It lists the room and the weekday for each clinic, and some special clinics run from 1:00 pm to 2:00 pm. Check the day for your department there before you travel.
Is GB Pant Hospital OPD free?
Yes for the consultation. The OPD Services page states in plain words that OPD facilities are free of charges. The X-ray service is also described as free on the laboratory page.
Some scans and tests are not free. The laboratory page lists charges for certain imaging, which we summarise below. If a counter asks for money for the OPD card itself, ask for a receipt and use the grievance route described later in this guide.
Lab, scan and test timings for OPD patients
The hospital’s OPD Laboratory Services page gives timings for the tests most OPD patients are sent for. Appointments are needed only for some of them.
| Service | Timing and location | Cost as printed |
|---|---|---|
| Blood tests | Sample Collection Centre D-129 near Block D; weekdays 8:00 am to 12:00 noon, Saturday 8:00 to 11:00 am | Not stated |
| X-ray | 8:00 to 12:00 (the page does not say am or pm); counter opens 8:00 am | Free |
| Ultrasound | Room 40, Block A/D-25; 8:00 am to 4:00 pm; appointment for all cases | Not stated |
| CT scan | Room B-40; 9:00 am to 4:00 pm; appointment for each case; report next day | Rs 750 to Rs 2,000 by body region |
| MRI | Ground floor, Block C; 9:00 am to 4:00 pm; booked at MRI reception, Room 9; report next day | Rs 3,000 for one region, contrast extra |
| Echo, TMT, Holter | 9:00 am to 4:00 pm; appointment for each study | Free for OPD patients |
The hospital’s OPD laboratory page, read on 18 October 2026, prints CT scan charges of Rs. 750 to Rs. 2000 depending on the region, and MRI charges of Rs. 3,000 for one region with contrast extra. Charges can be revised, so confirm at the radiology reception before you pay.
The page also warns of waiting periods for cardiac tests, such as 2 to 3 months for an echocardiography appointment and about 1 to 2 weeks for a TMT. So ask for your test date on the day of your OPD visit rather than later.
Is online appointment available for GB Pant Hospital OPD?
We could not confirm it. The hospital’s OPD Services page describes counter registration and says nothing about online booking, and the official home page does not mention an online appointment link. We did not find a page on the hospital site that offers one.
The national Online Registration System (ORS) at ors.gov.in is used by many government hospitals, and its booking screens sit behind a login that we did not enter.
Govind Ballabh Pant Hospital, New Delhi does not appear on the public ORS list of nodal officers (checked 18 October 2026), so treat GB Pant Hospital OPD as counter registration with a referral.
To see how ORS works at other Delhi government hospitals, read our AIIMS online appointment guide and the AIIMS Delhi online appointment guide. The steps are the same system, though each hospital decides what it offers.
Documents to carry to the OPD
The hospital pages do not publish one complete document list, so this is a practical checklist based on the referral rule:
- The referral note or letter from the doctor or hospital that sent you.
- A valid photo ID. An Aadhaar card is the most widely accepted.
- All old prescriptions, discharge summaries, ECGs, scans and blood reports for the condition.
- Your old registration card if you have visited before. Revisit registration has longer hours, as shown above.
- A list of the medicines you currently take.
The hospital keeps OPD patient folders in record rooms, and its medical records page says records are kept for a minimum of 8 years. That is why the same registration number helps on a revisit.
Emergency services at GB Pant Hospital
Emergency is separate from the OPD. The hospital’s Emergency Services page says it provides care for acute heart patients and acute brain stroke patients, free of cost, open 24 hours every day including Sundays and holidays. The emergency entrance is on the Ground Floor of Block D, from Gate No. 6, and the page lists an emergency ward with two triage beds and a 12-bed ICU.
If someone has chest pain, sudden weakness on one side, or trouble speaking, do not wait for the GB Pant Hospital OPD to open. Call the national ambulance number or go to the nearest emergency department.

How to plan your GB Pant Hospital OPD visit
- Get a referral from your treating doctor, since only referred patients are registered.
- Check the OPD roster for your department and day, and ask the help line if you are unsure.
- Reach the hospital well before 11:00 am for new registration, Monday to Friday, or Saturday morning.
- Register at the counter, then go to the department room printed on your card.
- Keep your reports in one folder and ask for test dates before you leave.
For a private Delhi comparison, our Sir Ganga Ram Hospital online appointment guide explains a different booking process.
Ayushman card and OPD
Because the OPD consultation is free, you do not need an Ayushman card to be seen. That card concerns admission and procedures, and we have not verified how it is used at this hospital. Our Ayushman card guide for AIIMS explains the general scheme from official sources.
If something goes wrong: grievances
The hospital’s Grievances page says public complaints go to its Public Grievances Redressal Machinery. For the OPD the named officer is the CMO in charge, extension 5016, and the page tells you to write to the CMO In-Charge, Public Grievances, near the main registration cell. You may also contact the Officer In-charge there in person.
