Lucknow’s healthcare landscape changed quite a bit in 2019 when Apollomedics Hospital opened its doors — a 330-bed quaternary care facility inaugurated by the then-President of India, Ram Nath Kovind. It’s now regarded as one of the most advanced healthcare providers in Uttar Pradesh.
Apollomedics Hospital came about through a partnership between Apollo Hospitals Group and Medics International Lifesciences, a Lucknow-based venture founded by senior local doctors including Dr. Sushil Gattani, a leading cardiologist, and Dr. Mayank Somani, a critical care specialist. That combination — Apollo’s national reach and Medics’ regional roots — is part of what makes Apollomedics Hospital stand out in the region.
Quick facts:
Before Apollomedics Hospital came along, patients from Uttar Pradesh often traveled to Delhi for high-end specialty care. That’s changed considerably. A few reasons it’s worth considering:
Apollomedics Hospital’s Centres of Excellence cover a fairly comprehensive range:
With 110 of its 330 beds set aside purely for critical care, Apollomedics Hospital is clearly built with high-acuity patients in mind. The equipment list backs that up — MRI, PET-CT, 128-slice CT scanning, CRRT (for continuous renal support in critically ill patients), and ECMO for advanced cardiac and respiratory life support. That’s a fairly serious level of technology to have concentrated in one Lucknow facility.
The specialists at Apollomedics Hospital are largely internationally trained, and the leadership team brings genuine regional credibility — Dr. Mayank Somani, for instance, serves as MD and CEO, bringing his own background in critical care medicine directly into how the hospital operates day to day.
For patients in Uttar Pradesh needing specialized cardiac, cancer, or neuro care, Apollomedics Hospital offers a level of infrastructure that previously meant traveling out of state. It’s worth reaching out for a consultation early, especially for critical or time-sensitive conditions, given the hospital’s strength in trauma and critical care.
