History

Dr L H Hiranandani Hospital founded in honour of the legend Padma Bhushan Dr L H Hiranandani came into existence in February 2004
The challenge of the early days was enormous to foster the fledgling hospital into an enduring symbol of healthcare in the country We recognised early on that to make a real and substantial contribution one had to redefine the standards themselves instead of doing more of the same That set the tone of our endeavour and guided us every step of the way luring us towards ambitious solutions service teamwork and quality suited us
The results were quick to show In 2007 we became the first hospital in Western India to receive the prestigious NABH Accreditation for hospitals and healthcare providers an honour accorded to only eight hospitals in the country at the time The IMC Ramakrishna Bajaj National Quality Award trophy for excellence in healthcare followed in 2008 In 2009 we were the proud recipients of the coveted International Asia Pacific Quality Award The Malcolm Baldridge Award as it known outside the United States
Today
It is an established enough fact that at the heart of the Hiranandani mission in any sector is the passionate commitment to stay on a par with the best global standards Predictably the theme reflects on nearly everything we undertake at the Hospital the first initiative of the Hiranandani Group in healthcare From basic medical equipment to the most complex surgical procedure we are informed and enhanced by the foremost innovations in patient care the world over Our nationally and internationally renowned surgeons solve daily some of the most intractable patient crises assisted by the cutting edge technology at their disposal Consequently today Dr L H Hiranandani Hospital has emerged as one of the pre eminent healthcare resources in India
Our vision for the future however rests on a very simple principle it is the belief that the quality of healthcare you have access to surely is the quality of your life It is the bigger picture that matters and so that is the direction we are committing all our explorations to
Especially since we have the reach the depth and of course the pedigree to bring you the finest care there is
