Asha Hospital, Nagpur, Maharashtra, India

Asha Hospital is a multispeciality institution in the Cantonment area of Kamptee, near Nagpur. Its departments include cardiology and cardiothoracic surgery, neurology and neurosurgery, orthopaedics, nephrology and dialysis, medical and surgical gastroenterology, oncology, general surgery, intensive care and emergency medicine. The hospital states NABH final-level accreditation and NABL certification.

The cardiac programme performs complex and emergency coronary angioplasty, coronary angiography, peripheral angiography and angioplasty, electrophysiology studies and congenital cardiac interventions. Cardiothoracic surgeons carry out coronary bypass, minimally invasive heart operations, valve replacement and paediatric cardiac surgery. General surgeons treat hernia, appendicitis, haemorrhoids, fissures, fistulas, hydrocele, breast abscesses and other abdominal or soft-tissue conditions, including laparoscopic approaches.

A Philips flat-panel catheterisation laboratory supports interventional cardiology. Optical coherence tomography supplies high-resolution intravascular images during selected angioplasty procedures and can guide coronary stent sizing and placement. The cardiac service is linked with a dedicated cardiac intensive-care unit, echocardiography, stress testing, cardiovascular CT and emergency access. General surgery has separate intensive-care support, and consultant surgeons cover urgent operations around the clock.

The hospital may be considered for coronary blockage, valve disease, congenital heart conditions, neurological disorders, kidney disease, serious infection, abdominal emergencies or planned laparoscopic surgery. Coronary imaging helps the cardiology team determine whether medicines, angioplasty or surgery is the appropriate route. OCT is an additional tool for selected interventions rather than a requirement in every case. Major cardiac operations and unstable illness can require intensive monitoring, while abdominal procedures vary from minor excision to emergency surgery. Multidisciplinary departments are available when a patient’s other medical conditions affect procedural planning or recovery.
