Apollo AyurVAID Hospitals, the Apollo Hospitals Group’s chain of precision Ayurveda hospitals, today announced the opening of its flagship 35-bed hospital at Greams Road, Chennai. The facility was inaugurated by Dr. Prathap C.

This opening marks more than an expansion of Chennai’s healthcare landscape. It signifies a new chapter in India’s approach to holistic health.

The new facility is designed to deliver evidence-based Ayurveda care across a broad spectrum of specialties including orthopaedics, neuro and neurodegenerative disorders, metabolic disorders, women’s health, paediatric developmental disorders, elder care, Ayurveda para-surgical treatments for ano-rectal conditions, chronic wounds, sports medicine, dermatology, and respiratory disorders. Dr. Prathap C. Reddy, Founder-Chairman, Apollo Hospitals Group, said,“Ayurveda is one of India’s greatest gifts to humanity. At Apollo, we believe that Ayurveda, when practiced with precision, evidence, and patient safety, complements modern medicine by addressing the root causes of disease and enhancing wellbeing. Through Apollo AyurVAID Hospitals, we are reinforcing India’s leadership in holistic, patient-centred healthcare that combines the best of both worlds. We are confident this new centre will serve as a beacon for high-quality, research-led Ayurvedic care that supports recovery, resilience, and lifelong health.” Dr. Preetha Reddy, Executive Vice Chairperson, Apollo Hospitals Enterprise Ltd. and Chairperson, Apollo AyurVAID, said “At Apollo, we have always believed that healthcare must be holistic and centred around the needs of every patient. Through Apollo AyurVAID, we are complementing modern medical care with clinically governed, evidence-based Ayurveda that enhances recovery, restores body–mind balance, and promotes lifelong wellbeing. With a strong presence across all four southern states, New Delhi, Almora, and upcoming expansions to western and eastern India, Apollo AyurVAID Hospitals continues to build India’s most advanced network for precision Ayurveda and holistic healing.” Mr. Rajiv Vasudevan, Founder & Managing Director, Apollo AyurVAID Hospitals, said: “The launch of our flagship hospital in Chennai marks an important milestone in our two-decade journey. Situated at Greams Road, the heart of India’s healthcare excellence, this centre brings together the precision of Ayurveda with the scientific rigour of Apollo’s clinical systems. We are committed to delivering personalised care through root-cause diagnosis and treatment of complex non-communicable diseases, post-acute rehabilitation, and whole-person health. Our goal is to make high-quality, safe, and outcome-driven Ayurveda care accessible to every individual seeking holistic healing.” Consistent with Apollo’s commitment to safety and transparency, the hospital will also offer the ‘Tested Safe’ AyurVAID range of products, including classical Ayurveda medicines, medical foods, and OTC formulations.
