Super Speciality Hospital for Pets
Ratan Tata’s vision for a super speciality hospital for pets will be launched in Mahalaxmi (Mumbai) in March 2024. Philanthropist and former Tata Group Chairman feels that Pets are family and their lives matter to every pet parent. When he looked around and saw the lack of infrastructure for pets in India, it made him wonder why in such a large country with a significant pet population one cannot have a facility that can save lives and make pet lives better.
The hospital will span over 98,000-square-foot(2.2 acres), across 5 floors with a capacity of more than 200 beds and built at an approximate cost of 165 crores. The facility will be equipped with 24 * 7 services to deliver quality care with a mission to saving lives. The hospital will have: Emergency & Critical Care; Inpatient and ICU units; Surgical Services (Soft Tissue Surgery, Orthopaedics etc.); Pharmacy Services; Support Functions such as Diagnostics – Radiology & Imaging (MRI, X-Ray, CT scan& USG), Laboratory – Haematology, Microbiology, Cytology, Clinical Pathology, Biochemistry, Histo-pathology and Anaesthesia.
Dr. Thomas Heathcote, Chief Veterinary Officer, Advanced Veterinary Care Facility (ACVF) said, “As one of India’s leading philanthropic institutions, we acknowledge the interconnected links between human health and animal health, and are committed to enhancing the quality of pet healthcare in the country. The hospital which is set to launch in phases will cover comprehensive advanced healthcare for pets across the continuum, right from consultation and diagnostics, to treatment, to high level nursing care, and resolution of their problems.”
Health is priority and this can be seen in the various multi-speciality clinics and hospitals which have opened in the last 5 years across India. As we cross each month of 2024 ensure that each month is special for your precious paws, keep them happy, safe and healthy.
