all and believe the only way forward is to revolutionise healthcare services
by constantly innovating, collaborating and educating."
AIMS has acquired Rapid Arch-IGRT and IMRT Linear Accelerator (Varian), the
first of its kind to be installed in North India for its cancer centre supported
by the surgical and medical oncology departments. In addition, the hospital
will have 11 modular operation theatres equipped with operating microscopes,
image intensifiers, laparoscopic equipment, Harmonic, RFA Laser, Cusa etc; a
comprehensive cardiac care programme including non-invasive and interventional
procedures and cardiac surgery; a dedicated trauma care team comprising orthopaedicicians,
surgeons, neurosurgeons and vascular surgeons; round-the-clock facility for
dialysis including SLED and CRRT for renal care; an imaging department equipped
with the state-of-the art Philips equipment including a 1.5 Tesla MRI (the first
PET CT in South Delhi/Faridabad); mammography, bone densitometer, high end ECHO,
4D ultrasound and digital X-Ray.
In addition, it will also have a comprehensive laboratory
and blood bank and preventive health check-up facilities tailored to individual
requirement. It also plans to have a health club and spa and a 250-seat auditorium
and amphitheatre for conferences, workshops and seminars.
Dr Pandey has previously served as Executive Director and Chief Administrator
of Escorts Hospital and Research Centre, Faridabad, for 25 years. Blue Sapphire
Healthcares Pvt Ltd is planning to follow the hub and spoke strategy for future
expansion. "A number of centers are planned at other locations, catering

for maximum utilisation of the highly skilled team and state-of-the-art equipment,"
adds Dr Pandey.
