In the summer of 2023, work began on the rehabilitation of parts of the UCC Kragujevac, among which was the Urology Clinic. As the director, prof. Dr. Slobodan Milisavljević, the largest construction site was precisely that clinic, which is located in the "old surgery" building, and was built in the twenties of the last century.
"Nothing has been done in that building for the past 50 years, patients were treated, and employees worked in much more difficult conditions. That's why we decided to renovate the clinic in detail - patient rooms, intensive care, classrooms, carpentry, floors, ceilings, electrical installations... So far, the restoration of the electrical installations and ceiling has been completed, and the restoration of the floors is underway. Due to these works, urology patients are currently hospitalized at the Nephrology Clinic and in the Emergency Center, given that the summer working regime is in effect", Milisavljević said in July 2023.
