It has a network of 1,000 plus hospitals/ clinics and 5,000 plus consultants and physicians. It conducts nearly 50 lakh tests annua catering to 10 lakh plus patients. No wonder, it has one of the largest processing centres in South India with around 8,000 samples / day capacity.


“Superior Quality is our motto and our USP is offering quality service at affordable prices and superior TAT,” Hitech Diagnostic claims proudly. And, it has created enough brand equity to justify this tag too. Hitech today is a trusted name among doctors and patients alike resulting in strong recall value (it is evident from the fact that a substantial part of its revenues is derived from walk-ins).
