More than 200 specialist consultant doctors visit the hospital on a regular basis. Due to the demand for services and the constraint for further expansion at the present premises, it was decided to construct a new state of the art hospital with more than 270 beds at Norris Canal Road, in Colombo 10. In 2007, with the acquisition of the hospital by Asiri Hospitals, it has taken a new direction.
