Fortis Hospital, Kalyan

Fortis Hospital Kalyan is a 50-bed tertiary facility serving Kalyan and the Thane region. Its premises cover 25,881 square feet and include 17 intensive-care beds. The hospital became the first in Thane district to receive NABH accreditation in 2013 and has seven operating theatres despite its compact overall size.

Cardiac procedures include CT coronary angiography, invasive angiography, catheterisation, angioplasty with stent placement, ablation and cardioversion. Orthopaedic services list arthroscopy and ACL reconstruction. Surgical oncology teams perform colectomy, endoscopic mucosal resection, lumpectomy, mastectomy, Mohs surgery and sentinel-node biopsy. Abdominal hysterectomy and liver biopsy are also among the branch’s published procedures.

The ratio of ICU beds to total capacity provides a significant monitored-care component. Theatres, cardiac diagnostics, dialysis, imaging and emergency services support both planned operations and acute admissions. Specialist departments include cardiac sciences, oncology, internal medicine, nephrology, pulmonology, general surgery, orthopaedics, rheumatology, ENT and paediatrics. This combination gives a smaller hospital access to medical input around surgical care.

Fortis Kalyan may be relevant for coronary artery disease, heart-rhythm problems, knee ligament or joint conditions, breast or colorectal cancer and illnesses needing close observation. Renal patients can access dialysis support, while people with several health problems can receive assessment from different specialties during one admission. The facility’s scale differs from a large quaternary centre, but its 17 ICU beds and seven theatres allow it to handle selected higher-acuity cases locally. Treatment choice is based on the diagnosis, disease stage, medical fitness and the capabilities of the relevant department. Postoperative follow-up can include cardiac review, physiotherapy, oncology surveillance or wound assessment, depending on the procedure.

The hospital may suit patients in Kalyan and the Thane region who need heart, cancer, spine, orthopaedic or general surgical care close to home, with 17 ICU beds and seven operating theatres for higher-risk cases. Very complex treatment may need referral to a larger centre.
