History
New Hospitals was established in 2011 following a large-scale reconstruction of two pre-existing institutions: the National Institute of Ophthalmology of Georgia and the Petre Sarajishvili Institute of Neurology, introducing numerous new specialties and services. The investment for the project was carried out by the PSP Group, a Georgian holding company specializing in the healthcare field.The National Institute of Ophthalmology, which now functions as part of New Hospitals, has a history of more than 130 years. In 1892, the Georgian ophthalmologist Giorgi Tarsaidze founded the Charity Hospital of Eye Diseases, which later became the base for the establishment of the Eye Disease Clinic. During soviet times, the Institute of Ophthalmology was a referral center and was the alma mater of most of the prominent eye doctors in Georgia. After its acquisition, the new facility inherited the institute’s traditions, scientific approach, and part of its medical staff. The ophthalmology department remains one of the hospital’s key specialties.
The current Department of Neurology and Neurorehabilitation is based on the foundation of the former Petre Sarajishvili Institute of Neurology. The neurological services cover a wide range of areas, including the treatment of movement disorders, epilepsy, neuroinfectious diseases, neuromuscular and cerebrovascular disorders, as well as neurorehabilitation, autonomic and behavioral neurology, and pediatric and adolescent neurology.
