Apollo Hospitals Chennai has inaugurated a new Information Centre in Chattogram, Bangladesh, reinforcing its commitment to expanding access to high-quality healthcare services for international patients. The centre, located in the Jamal Khan area of the city, was inaugurated by Naveen Varigepalli, CEO of Apollo Hospitals Chennai, along with Dr. Ilankumaran Kaliamoorthy, Regional CEO – Chennai Region, Apollo Hospitals. Mr. MS Guru Prasad, Associate Vice President – International Sales & Marketing, Apollo Hospitals Group, was also present at the ceremony.   The facility is designed to serve as a dedicated patient support hub, helping individuals in Bangladesh connect with Apollo’s specialists and advanced medical services in India. Through the centre, patients can access assistance with doctor appointments, second opinions, treatment planning, and visa facilitation — ensuring a seamless pathway to specialised care.   Beyond patient services, the centre will also collaborate with local physicians and medical value travel professionals to coordinate care and provide reliable clinical guidance. This integrated approach aims to support patients from the early stages of medical consultation through treatment planning and follow-up.  Importantly, the initiative will promote professional knowledge-sharing through Continuing Medical Education (CME) seminars and patient awareness programmes, strengthening clinical collaboration and healthcare education in the region.  Dr. Ilankumaran thanked the people of Bangladesh for their continued trust in Apollo Hospitals and reaffirmed the organisation’s commitment to strengthening this relationship while delivering compassionate, high-quality care through collaboration and clinical excellence.  Apollo Hospitals has long been a preferred destination for international patients seeking advanced treatments across specialties such as cardiology, oncology, and neurosciences. By establishing this information centre, Apollo Hospitals continues to bridge geographical barriers; bringing trusted medical expertise closer to patients while reinforcing its commitment to accessible, patient-centred healthcare across borders. 

At the ET Now Business Conclave & Awards 2026, Dr. (Prof.) Ameet Kishore, Senior Consultant in ENT & Neurotology at Indraprastha Apollo Hospitals, New Delhi, was honoured with the Excellence Award for his outstanding contributions to ENT, Head & Neck surgery, and cochlear implant care. The recognition reflects his long-standing commitment to advancing hearing restoration and patient-centred clinical innovation.  With more than 25 years of experience in otorhinolaryngology, Dr. Kishore is widely regarded for his expertise in complex ear surgery, neuro-otology, pediatric ENT, and implantable hearing technologies. Trained in the United Kingdom with fellowships from the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh and the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow, he has played a pivotal role in bringing advanced global standards of ENT care to India.   At Apollo Hospitals, Dr. Kishore established and leads a comprehensive cochlear and hearing implant programme, providing life-changing treatment for children and adults with severe to profound hearing loss. Over the years, the programme has supported more than 1,800 cochlear implant recipients, helping patients regain hearing ability, communication skills, and improved quality of life.   Beyond clinical practice, he has contributed extensively to academic research, medical education, and national initiatives in auditory rehabilitation. His work continues to shape the future of hearing healthcare in India, particularly in advancing multidisciplinary approaches for complex auditory disorders. This recognition underscores Apollo Hospitals’ ongoing commitment to clinical excellence, innovation, and patient-focused care, while celebrating the contributions of physicians who continue to transform lives through advanced medical science. 

Apollo Hospitals Navi Mumbai has launched a dedicated Pediatric Rehabilitation Unit, further strengthening its child recovery services and advancing comprehensive care for young patients. The specialised unit is designed to support children recovering from illness, injury, surgery, or developmental conditions through coordinated, multidisciplinary rehabilitation.   Pediatric rehabilitation plays a crucial role in helping children regain physical, cognitive, and functional abilities while also supporting their emotional well-being. At Apollo Hospitals Navi Mumbai, the programme brings together a collaborative team of pediatricians, physiotherapists, rehabilitation specialists, nurses, and allied healthcare professionals who work closely to develop personalised recovery plans tailored to each child’s needs.   The newly introduced unit combines advanced rehabilitation therapies with a child-friendly clinical environment to address neurological, orthopedic, developmental, and post-surgical rehabilitation requirements. Beyond medical recovery, the focus is on helping children rebuild confidence, independence, and essential life skills that contribute to healthy growth and long-term well-being.  Apollo Hospitals Navi Mumbai, a JCI and NABH-accredited tertiary care centre, is recognised for its multidisciplinary expertise and advanced pediatric services. The expansion of specialised rehabilitation care reflects the hospital’s continued commitment to delivering holistic, patient-centred treatment for children and their families. With this initiative, Apollo Hospitals further reinforces its focus on innovation in pediatric healthcare, ensuring that young patients receive comprehensive support to recover, rebuild strength, and achieve their fullest potential.  

Apollo Sage Hospitals has launched an Advanced Liver Disease & Transplant Clinic in Bhopal, further strengthening its commitment to delivering specialised healthcare in Central India. The new centre builds on the hospital’s advanced liver care services and marks a significant milestone in expanding its capabilities for solid organ transplantation in the region.  The clinic was inaugurated in the presence of Ms. Shivani Agrawal, Managing Director of Sage Group; Dr. Abhishek Yadav, Senior Director and Liver Transplantation Lead, Apollo Hospitals; and Mr. Dhananjay Kumar, CEO of Apollo Sage Hospitals, along with the transplant team and clinical specialists. Liver disease remains a growing global health challenge and is recognised as the 11th leading cause of death worldwide. Conditions such as cirrhosis, hepatitis B and C, metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), alcohol-related liver disease, and liver cancer increasingly require advanced medical management and, in some cases, transplantation. For patients with severe liver failure who meet established clinical criteria, liver transplantation may be a life-saving treatment option.  The new clinic brings together an internationally trained multidisciplinary team of hepatologists, gastroenterologists, GI onco-surgeons, transplant surgeons, and intensivists, providing comprehensive care — from early diagnosis and medical management to advanced surgical interventions such as living and deceased donor liver transplantation. Supported with modern infrastructure and advanced diagnostic technologies, the centre aims to deliver end-to-end liver care for patients in Bhopal and neighbouring regions. By enabling access to specialised expertise locally, Apollo Sage Hospitals is helping reduce the need for patients to travel to metropolitan centres for complex liver treatment while strengthening the region’s capacity for advanced clinical care.
