The Greenfield hospital, built ground up, is known as ‘American Oncology Institute at Nangia Specialty Hospital’. Says Dr Lloyd Nazareth, Group CEO, AOI, “The hospital will serve almost 25 million patients from the Vidharbha region of Maharashtra, eastern Madhya Pradesh and southern Chhattisgarh regions.” The hospital will provide a comprehensive range of cancer services with surgical oncology, medical oncology, haemato-oncology, BMT and full range of cancer diagnostics. The hospital would also offer oncology-related specialties like surgical and medical GI, urology and ENT. The investment for the project is Rs 90 crore project, of which the Nangias are investing on the infrastructure while AOI is investing on the equipment. "AOI would fully operate the facility," says Dr Lloyd.
