CARE Hospitals

CARE Hospitals (Comprehensive Advanced Research and Education Hospitals) is one of Hyderabad's most established and respected multi-specialty hospital groups, with a network of campuses across the city including Banjara Hills, Nampally, Musheerabad, and other locations. Founded in 1997, CARE Hospitals has grown to become one of Telangana's largest private hospital networks, with a combined capacity of over 1,500 beds and comprehensive tertiary care capabilities. The group is known for its cardiac sciences programme, which includes interventional cardiology, cardiac surgery, and cardiac electrophysiology, along with strengths in neurosciences, orthopaedics, oncology, and organ transplantation. CARE Hospitals was among the first hospital groups in Hyderabad to receive NABH accreditation, reflecting a long-standing commitment to quality and patient safety. The hospitals serve a large volume of patients from Hyderabad, Telangana, and neighbouring Andhra Pradesh, and also attract international patients from the Gulf region and Southeast Asia. The hospital group's long track record, multi-campus presence, and breadth of specialties have made CARE Hospitals a household name for quality healthcare in Hyderabad.

CARE Hospitals operates comprehensive programmes across cardiology and cardiac surgery (angiography, angioplasty, CABG, valve surgery, electrophysiology, and pacemakers), neurology and neurosurgery (stroke, brain tumours, epilepsy, and spine surgery), orthopaedics and joint replacement (total knee, total hip, shoulder replacement, arthroscopy, and trauma), oncology (medical, surgical, and radiation therapy), organ transplantation (kidney transplant, liver transplant), nephrology and dialysis, gastroenterology and hepatology, urology, pulmonology and chest medicine, endocrinology and metabolism, obstetrics and gynaecology, paediatrics and neonatology, emergency and trauma medicine, and critical care. Dedicated ICUs across each specialty provide sub-specialty intensive care. Bone marrow transplantation (BMT) is available for haematological malignancies including leukaemia and lymphoma, supported by a dedicated BMT unit. Robotic surgery is integrated into the surgical programme across urology, gynaecology, and colorectal surgery.

CARE Hospitals' flagship campuses are equipped with modular operation theatres including cardiac surgery OT with heart-lung bypass machine, neurosurgery OT, hybrid OR, and minimally invasive surgery suites.
