Initially, the hospital was named after Sheikh Russel.[8][9] However, Sheikh Russell National Gastro Liver Institute and Hospital was renamed to National Gastroliver Institute & Hospital in November 2024 after the fall of the Sheikh Hasina led Awami League government through the Student–People's uprising and Non-cooperation movement (2024).[5][6]
