The launch of such an exclusive centre in India is really a need of the hour. If statistics are to be believed, more than 3 -4 lakh of people in the country are affected by aortic diseases, every year; out of which only 1000 people are getting treatment. This is due to the availability of very few centres with capability to treat this condition.

Under the leadership of Dr. Bashi, for the treatment of aortic diseases, the exclusive Aortic Aneurysm Centre at SIMS Hospital aims to bring a focused approach in enhancing the awareness and providing advanced treatment for this complication. 💢💢
