Sir Ganga Ram Hospital, a name synonymous with unwavering trust and exceptional healthcare, stands as a testament to a legacy that spans generations. From its foundational roots, inspired by the visionary Sir Ganga Ram, a celebrated civil engineer and philanthropist whose dedication to societal upliftment remains an enduring beacon, to its current position as a leading multi-specialty institution in the heart of Delhi, SGRH has continuously evolved, solidifying its place as a cornerstone of the community. This "Trust of Generations" is not merely a historical footnote, but a living, breathing testament to our commitment to blending compassionate care with cutting-edge medical advancements and technology.
The hospital's journey is a narrative of resilience and adaptation, a story that bridges pre-partition Lahore with modern Delhi. The tumultuous events of the Partition of India in 1947 necessitated the creation of a new facility in New Delhi, a testament to the enduring need for quality healthcare. This new chapter began with the visionary Shri Dharam Vira, whose efforts, blessed by the laying of the foundation stone by Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru in April 1951, culminated in the inauguration of Sir Ganga Ram Hospital on April 13, 1954. This historic moment, coinciding with Sir Ganga Ram's birth anniversary, marked the rebirth of a legacy of care in a new era.
Today, SGRH stands as a beacon of medical excellence, boasting over 900 beds and encompassing 71 specialties across more than 100 specialised clinics. Our hospitals boast more than 35 well-equipped operation theatres that meet the most stringent standards, ensuring optimal surgical outcomes. Our multidisciplinary approach, a hallmark of modern healthcare, ensures that patients receive comprehensive, integrated care, addressing not just their immediate medical needs, but their overall well-being. This collaborative approach fosters an environment where expertise converges, leading to innovative treatments and improved patient outcomes.
Our Centres of Excellence, each a hub of specialised expertise, are equipped with state-of-the-art technology, reflecting our commitment to staying at the forefront of medical advancements. To mention few, Cardiology, advanced imaging and minimally invasive procedures redefine heart care. In Oncology, a multidisciplinary team battles cancer with personalised therapies state of art technology in radiology and unwavering compassion. Neurology and Neurosurgery push the boundaries of brain health, while Orthopaedics restores mobility with advanced surgical techniques. These centres are not just departments; they are symbols of hope, where the "Trust of Generations" is reinforced with every successful treatment.
SGRH's commitment to innovation extends to its embrace of cutting-edge technology. The deployment of the Hugo™ RAS System, 3D-HD imaging, robotic-assisted surgery, HIPEC for cancer treatment, and Spiral Endoscopy reflects our dedication to precision and patient-centric care. Advanced imaging technologies like 3D C-arm, Echo devices, MRI, and PET-CT scanning ensure accurate diagnoses and personalized treatment plans, empowering patients with knowledge and confidence.
Recognising the importance of knowledge dissemination, SGRH plays a pivotal role in medical education and research. Our Diplomat of National Board (DNB) programs, the largest in India, and Continuing Medical Education (CME) initiatives nurture future generations of healthcare professionals. The Ganga Ram Institute of Postgraduate Medical Education & Research (GRIPMER) further strengthens our academic and research activities, fostering a culture of continuous learning and innovation. Our Medical Genetics Department, a pioneer in the field, underscores our commitment to pushing the boundaries of medical science.
SGRH's commitment to social responsibility is deeply ingrained in our ethos. Twenty percent of our beds are dedicated to serving economically weaker sections of society, providing free treatment, housing support, and medication. Our free OPD services and emergency care ensure that quality healthcare is accessible to all, irrespective of their financial status. Our association with government healthcare schemes like Ayushman Bharat-Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (AB-PMJAY) further expands our reach, allowing even the most vulnerable to access cutting-edge treatments with dignity.
Our unique charitable model, where the Board of Management, comprising eminent doctors, guides the hospital's operations, ensures that patient care remains our central tenet. This model, a testament to our commitment to service, reinforces the "Trust of Generations," ensuring that the hospital remains a beacon of hope for all.
