Apollo AyurVAID to expand network to 350 beds in four months

Healthcare major Apollo Hospitals is planning to add four new facilities to its precision ayurveda healthcare arm, Apollo AyurVAID Hospitals, expanding the network to 350 beds over the next three to four months. The move comes as the group bets on the country’s growing demand for ayurveda-based in-patient and out-patient care.

Apollo AyurVAID Hospitals on Monday opened a 35-bed facility in Chennai. “We will not stop with one or two centres. We are trying to create a network that is fully integrated with the Apollo ecosystem. It will also be open to any healthcare provider that meets our standards of quality and care,” said Preetha Reddy, executive vice chairperson, Apollo Hospitals Enterprise, and chairperson, Apollo AyurVAID.

Apollo Hospitals acquired a 60% stake in AyurVAID in October
