Kolkata, India (BBN)-The Apollo Hospital Group is planning to expand its operations in Bangladesh and Kolkata in the next few years, a top official of the city facility said Sunday.
“We presently have a hospital in Dhaka. We have plans to have one more hospital in Chittagong,” Apollo Hospital ECO, Eastern Region, Rupali Basu, said, reports PTI.
However, it is yet to be decided whether it would be through a tie-up or through some other mechanism.
The move is being taken because of increasing number of patients from Bangladesh in our Kolkata facility, Basu told reporters.
The group is also contemplating to have a 200-bed hospital in south Kolkata, she said.
The group now has a 510-bedded hospital in the northern part of the city.
“Besides, We also have plans to set up a new facility in the North Eastern region, particularly Assam,” Basu said.
