Lack of super specialty facilities propelled Dr NK Pandey, Chairman, Asian Institute of Medical Sciences to fill this gap and bring life the idea of developing a healthcare facility in a town called Faridabad. In a candid conversation with Shally Makin, ENN he is living up his dream

Inspiration behind the foundation of AIMS

Dr Pandey started his medical career in Faridabad, Delhi NCR almost three decades ago and was spear heading Escorts Hospital for a number of years. He realised that the healthcare needs of the city were enormous and were barely met by a plethora of nursing homes and a few small hospitals. He pledged to change this trend and set-out to build his dream. A dream that would bestow upon the people of Faridabad not another healthcare facility but an advanced super specialty tertiary care hospital with comprehenisve facilities and ultra-modern state-of-the-art infrastructure. Today the institute offers advanced medical care across all super specialties such as cancer, joint replacement, advanced renal care and kidney transplant, invasive cardiology and cardiac surgery among others and also offers the most comprehensive cancer care in the region. He wanted to ensure that people of this city travelled out for any reason, but not for treatment.

The institute is supported by state-of-the-art equipments which include some of the firsts in this region such as Rapid Arc-IGRT and IMRT Linear acceleratorfor radiation oncology, GammaMediplus IXfor Brachytherapy.
