The Fortis Memorial, a first of its kind in Asia is a one stop, multi-super specialty quaternary care hospital providing medical excellence and redefines healthcare delivery, elevating it to a position of individualized, total care for complex medical problems, requiring specialized medical attention. It is the first hospital in its category to house a full-fledged stem cell lab for cutting edge medical treatment and also offers robotic surgery and organ transplantation for patients.
Commenting on the new concept, Malvinder Singh, executive chairman, Fortis Healthcare Limited, said, “This is yet another defining step in our endeavour to bring the ultimate healthcare delivery system to the people of India, a thought originally espoused and evangelized by the late Dr Parvinder Singh, our founder chairman and father. A comprehensive institute, it is aimed at delivering cutting edge medicine in line with the best in the West. No effort has been spared and every conceivable detail looked into, in the setting up of this next generation hospital, positioned as the healthcare destination facility, in Asia.”
Adopting a patient centric approach, the Fortis Memorial builds on its four strong pillars of exceptional clinical talent, world-class infrastructure, cutting edge technology, and personalized service delivered with compassion, in a friendly environment.
