This past week, the CPL Diagnostic Lab family stepped away from their microscopes, diagnostic machines, and reporting desks to celebrate a major organizational milestone. Marking our 9th Foundation Day, the team gathered for a grand evening at Sarat Sadan, near Howrah Maidan.
The event served as a powerful reminder of how far we have come. Employees from our Kolkata headquarters were joined by team members traveling from our branches in Asansol, Patna, and Jharkhand. It was an evening dedicated to reflecting on our growth, honoring the hard work of our staff, and looking forward to the future of healthcare.
The Founder’s Vision: Reflecting on 9 Years of Excellenc
The formal proceedings began with a keynote address from Koushik Ray, the Founder and Owner of CPL Diagnostic Lab. He took the stage to reflect on the journey from a growing local laboratory to a multi-branch diagnostic network. His speech highlighted the core values that have kept CPL thriving for nearly a decade: an uncompromising commitment to testing accuracy, strict hygiene protocols, and putting patient care above all else.
He thanked the staff for their relentless dedication, especially during high-pressure periods, noting that the laboratory’s reputation is built entirely on the daily precision of its workforce.
The Next Frontier: Launching Gene Diagnostics
The most highly anticipated moment of the founder’s address was the announcement of CPL’s next major medical expansion. Koushik Ray officially revealed that CPL Diagnostic Lab will soon be launching a dedicated Gene Diagnostics and Genetic Solutions division.
This marks a massive technological leap for the company. By moving into genetic testing, CPL is transitioning from traditional pathology into the realm of predictive and personalized medicine. This upcoming service will allow patients to uncover deep genetic predispositions, empowering them and their doctors to make highly informed, proactive healthcare decisions.
Honoring the Backbone of CPL: The Awards Ceremony
A diagnostic lab is only as reliable as the people running it. To acknowledge this, management hosted an extensive award distribution ceremony to honor the individuals whose behind-the-scenes work maintains our high standards. Key recognitions included:
-
- Moumita Sardar (Accounting Department): Recognized for her meticulous financial oversight and consistent contributions that keep the operational side of the business running smoothly.
-
- Kiran Kharawar (Excellence and Quality Award): Honored for her rigorous dedication to maintaining the highest laboratory standards. Her commitment ensures that our reports are consistently flawless and reliable.
- Shrabanti (Employee of the Month): Awarded for her outstanding daily commitment to seamless patient care, operational efficiency, and bringing a positive, driven attitude to the workplace.
An Evening of Culture and Celebration
Following the awards and the professional milestones, the tone of the evening shifted to pure celebration. CPL hosted a fully curated cultural program featuring hired professional entertainers. The stage at Sarat Sadan came alive with a series of vocal performances and high-energy dance routines. The performances beautifully blended traditional Indian dance forms with vibrant, modern Bollywood choreography, keeping the entire team entertained.
It was a well-deserved opportunity for our phlebotomists, pathologists, and support staff to unwind, share a meal, and celebrate together outside of the clinical environment.
- The Road to Ten Years
-
- As CPL Diagnostic Lab enters its tenth year of operation, our mandate is clearer than ever. With the integration of gene diagnostics on the horizon and a team that is recognized for its excellence, we are fully equipped to handle the next generation of healthcare requirements. We thank our incredible team for their dedication, and we extend our deepest gratitude to the patients who have trusted CPL with their health for the past nine years.
