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.
About Apollomedics Hospital
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:
- Opened in February 2019
- 330 beds, with 110 dedicated to critical care
- 10 Centres of Excellence, 30+ specialties
- Spread across 3,50,000 sq ft, aiming for LEED Gold certification
Why Choose Apollomedics Hospital
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:
- Backed by Apollo Hospitals Group’s national expertise and standards
- Quaternary care — meaning it handles the most complex cases, not just standard treatments
- Advanced diagnostic equipment, including PET-CT, 128-slice CT, and Gamma Camera
- 24×7 trauma care alongside round-the-clock specialist coverage
Specialties & Treatments Offered
Apollomedics Hospital’s Centres of Excellence cover a fairly comprehensive range:
- Cardiac sciences
- Oncology and cancer care
- Neuro sciences
- Gastro sciences
- Renal sciences
- Orthopedics
- Obstetrics and gynecology
- Critical care and 24×7 trauma care
Infrastructure & Technology
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.
Doctors & Medical Team
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.
Getting Treated at Apollomedics Hospital
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.
