East Coast Hospitals has successfully completed over 50 kidney transplant surgeries, marking a major milestone in advanced tertiary care and strengthening Puducherry’s position as an emerging medical hub.
The hospital said the achievement reflects its growing expertise in nephrology and renal transplant care, supported by modern infrastructure, critical care facilities and a dedicated multidisciplinary transplant team.
All transplant procedures are carried out in strict compliance with the guidelines of National Organ and Tissue Transplant Organisation and State Organ and Tissue Transplant Organisation, ensuring ethical practices, transparent donor evaluation and high standards of patient safety.
The transplant programme has benefited patients from Puducherry and neighbouring districts of Tamil Nadu, reducing the need for long-distance travel and expensive procedures in metro cities. Medical experts said such advancements enhance regional healthcare capacity and boost confidence in local super-specialty services.
Established in the early 1990s, East Coast Hospitals is a 150-plus bed multi-specialty tertiary care institution known for kidney care and round-the-clock emergency and intensive care services. The hospital said it will continue expanding its super-specialty offerings to contribute to Puducherry’s growth as a centre of excellence in medical treatment.
