The 250 bed NABH accredited hospital is built on a 10-acre land parcel at Maitri Vihar, Bhubaneswar, a prime location in the heart of the city. Spread over 2,60,000 sq. ft., the hospital provides multidisciplinary care across major specialties, including Neurology, Cardiology, Orthopaedics, Gastroenterology, Renal Sciences and Oncology; backed by diagnostics and equipped with a 128-slice CT scanner, 1.5T MRI, and Cath Lab, etc., the company said in a statement.

Bhubaneswar has a well-developed healthcare eco-system with large footprint of public, private hospitals and multiple medical colleges, positioning the city as a preferred healthcare provider for patients from across Odisha and neighbouring states of West Bengal, Jharkhand and Chhattisgarh. This acquisition will strengthen MHIL’s network and expand its footprint in Eastern India, it added.

“Happy to announce our foray into Bhubaneswar, an extremely attractive market, through the acquisition of a very well located and reputable hospital with significant operational upside and brownfield potential. Such prime opportunities are extremely rare.
