Aakash Healthcare plans to come up with specialised orthopaedic hospitals in Tier II cities across the country over the next three years entailing an investment of around Rs 100 crore, according to Managing Director Aashish Chaudhry. The healthcare provider, which currently runs a 230-bed hospital in Dwarka and has also forayed into Uzbekistan last year after acquiring a hospital in Tashkent, has commenced operations of a orthopaedic facility in Agra.
It now plans to come up with around ten facilities over the next three years across various cities like Meerut, Panchkula, Panipat and Bahadurgarh, among others. "There are facilities that exist in big cities which can take care of the specialised jobs in the orthopaedic area. With these new centres which we plan to set up, we want to deliver the same kind of healthcare in smaller cities as well," Chaudhry said in an interaction.
