OUR VISION
We aim to be a global
healthcare institution
that combines the best in
medical treatment with
strong ethical principles
and a culture of care and
compassion.
OUR MISSION
To be an institution that
offers comprehensive
quality healthcare
services under one roof
through transparent
patient-centric care
ensuring safety,
privacy and dignity. An
institution where Every
Life, indeed, Matters
THE
INSTITUTION
WHO WE ARE
Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani
Hospital & Medical Research
Institute is one of India’s most
advanced quaternary care facilities.
As the flagship social initiative of
the Reliance Group headed by Anil
Dhirubhai Ambani, the hospital
is designed to raise India’s global
standing as a healthcare hub, with
emphasis on excellence in clinical
services, diagnostic facilities and
research.
OUR VALUES
OUR TALENT
In the belief that an institution is only as good as its people, no effort has been spared
to bring on board the best of the medical profession across clinical specialities from
around the globe. Our panel of medical experts have painstakingly credentialed
and defined each doctor’s privileges, ensuring increased patient safety with the
provision of high-quality medical services.
Our doctors are supported by standardised care protocols that help deliver
consistent patient care and follow a common treatment plan for a given illness.
The talent pool is further strengthened by qualified and well-trained nursing and
technical professionals. Our nurses are trained in the latest techniques across
various specialities and have become custodians of global best practices in
caregiving.
We have already generated
tremendous goodwill and
performed path-breaking
surgeries with outstanding
outcomes.
Kokilaben Hospital is not
just a hospital but an
organic entity, an institution
that offers comprehensive
healthcare services under
one roof, creating a
platform for transparent
patient-centric care where
every life matters.
The combination of stateof-the-art infrastructure,
cutting-edge technology and
full-time consultant model
has enriched our position in
the country.
At Kokilaben Hospital, there is room for everyone
and for people from every walk of life. What better
could describe Kokilaben Hospital than the words
of Late Shri Dhirubhai Ambani – “A hospital is not a
place where money and profit are important. Every
single life saved or a patient cured would give me
more satisfaction than mere financial gain.”
In line with this, it is natural for the Hospital to
believe that good health is essential for one’s
happiness, success and well-being. Kokilaben
Hospital is dedicated to make positive differences
in many lives. To this end, the hospital has set
aside and will continue to set aside a corpus of
funds every year for treating the lesser privileged
sections of society free. For, at its core, Kokilaben
Hospital remains a non-profit organisation.
INSIDE
We are the only hospital in Mumbai with a Full-Time Specialist System (FTSS)
ensuring easy availability and access to dedicated specialists exclusively attached
to Kokilaben Hospital. The hospital follows global best practices and procedures
together with the right mix of clinical care, research and academia.
Impelled by the need to
bring world-class healthcare
services to the country
and empower patients to
make informed choices, the
Hospital was launched in
Mumbai in 2009.

Looking back, this has been a life-changing journey for me. Growing this
project from the ground up, nurturing it through its teething troubles,
establishing enduring systems and processes, building a committed
team of professionals who share the dream, and then watching it take
wing with a blend of pride, joy and trepidation has been an intense
experience—challenging, yet infinitely gratifying.
Resolute in our belief that compassion and comfort are the cornerstones
of care, we have managed to live up to the very high ethical and
professional standards we set ourselves upon inception, and meet the
stringent benchmarks that characterise the finest medical institutions
across the world. We have succeeded in blazing a very individual trail
by pursuing a full-time specialist system, and achieved a convergence
of global best practices adapted to Indian needs with a family of
healthcare professionals that combines talent, technical expertise and
commitment. Today, they are the backbone of KDAH.
By catering to every segment of society and providing every facility
across disciplines under one roof, we seek to bring smiles on the face of
everyone who walks through our doors. The hospital itself is designed
to shatter every negative stereotype—there is no claustrophobia here,
only space; no darkness, only light; no grimness, only hope. With a
deliberately low bed ratio ensuring more space, we seek to provide
every patient the dignity, comfort, convenience and privacy they
deserve.
Our journey continues in a bid to reach more people, to touch—and
save—more lives. And each complicated procedure undertaken, each
successful outcome, only spurs the team higher. For us, the intangible
rewards are often the greatest: the joy in the eyes of the parents whose
newborn has successfully undergone congenital heart surgery; the
easy gait of the silver man whose Parkinson’s disease has responded
to deep brain stimulation (DBS); the happiness reflected on the face
of the 60-year-old man who successfully underwent robotic surgery
for prostate cancer; and the bright smile of the 26-year-old mother
who underwent a liver transplant from a living donor—her 19-year-old
brother.
These are just some of the successes that impel us to strive harder to be
the best we can be. As the cornerstone of Reliance Group’s CSR initiative,
prestige and profit, accolades and encomiums have been incidental
for us—our mission has been much broader and our commitment
much deeper in our crusade to give Indians the best medical care they
deserve. With the full support of the Reliance Group in general, and
Anil in particular, we rededicate ourselves to serving the community,
the city, and the country.
Welcome to the future of healthcare!
WELLNESS IS A JOURNEY—
ITS DESTINATION IS TO
ACHIEVE A HARMONY OF
BODY, MIND AND SOUL THAT
ENABLES US TO LIVE THE LIFE
WE DESIRE. INDEED, HEALTH,
HOPE AND HAPPINESS
FORM THE TRIPTYCH OF A
BEAUTIFULLY PAINTED LIFE.

MESSAGE
Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital & Medical Research Institute
KDAH
AT A GLANCE...........................................16
SIX YEARS ago, Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital & Medical
Research Institute (KDAH) opened its doors with the objective to
strengthen medical care in the communities we serve, and empower
patients—and their families—to make informed choices. A tribute by
Anil and I to my father-in-law Dhirubhai Ambani, and dedicated to my
mother-in-law Kokilaben, this institution was created to bridge the gaps
in the Indian healthcare system. Indeed, by bringing the world’s best
technology and treatment protocols to India, we wished to transform
the way our country views healthcare.

Research Activities at Kokilaben
Hospital
A large part of our research is clinical. It is not restricted to laboratories
but carried out across specialities, including cardiology, cardiac surgery,
anaesthesiology, radiology, pathology, histo-pathology, nephrology,
neurology, urology, orthopaedics, paediatric cardiac surgery, physical
medicine and rehabilitation. Our patients are the subjects of our
research data collection—the data is then analysed and the findings
prepared for publication or presentation.
We have established an Institutional Scientific and Ethics Board (ISEB)
to ensure the protection of the rights, safety and well-being of human
subjects involved in research projects and to provide public assurance
of that protection, which is registered with the regulatory authority of
our country, Drug Controller General of India. ISEB has reviewed 161
clinical research projects in the past few years, of which 107 have been
initiated by us.
Clinical Services
In India, every one in 100 live births suffers from Congenital
Heart Disease (CHD). On a very generous estimate, only around
10,000 to 15,000 congenital heart surgeries are performed in
India annually, in about a dozen dedicated centres capable of
taking care of neonates and infants after heart surgery. This is only
about a tenth of what needs to be done. There was no integrated
centre for children’s cardiac care in Mumbai and, in fact, the
whole of Western India. Sensing the crying need, we set up a
comprehensive Children’s Heart Centre, a welcome development
in a region where cardiac care for children needs to be continually
supported and subsidised.
Another gap recognised was in the area of liver transplant. Every
year, around 250,000 patients die of liver failure in India owing to
cirrhosis and over 25,000 patients need a liver transplant every
year. However, there was no comprehensive liver transplant setup
EXCELLENCE AND BEYOND
The ‘Centres of Excellence’ and Multispecialty Clinics at
Kokilaben Hospital aim to provide best-in-class tertiary and
quaternary care medical services. The Children’s Heart Centre,
Centre for Sports Medicine, Centre for Rehabilitation, Centre for
Robotic Surgery and the Centre for Liver Transplant are some
of the key, pioneering Centres of Excellence that have achieved
remarkable success and have since become change agents.
The Children’s Heart Centre currently performs over 800
Paediatric Heart Surgeries every year. The youngest baby to
undergo surgery was just seven hours old. Indeed, the Centre is
passionately committed to save precious little hearts.
The Robotic Surgery Programme, since its launch in mid 2012,
has been performing 500 robot-assisted surgeries across all
specialities annually. Besides cancer, this highly advanced
technology plays a significant role in treating cases in the fields
of Gynaecology, Sleep Medicine, GI and Bariatric.
The Living Donor Liver Transplant Programme is another first
that started in late 2013, with over 100 liver transplants in a
span of 2 years. It is the first-of-its-kind, comprehensive liver
transplant centre in Western India.
The Centre for Rehabilitation and the Centre for Sports
Medicine have revolutionised care, not just in the city but in the
country. With its unique features and dedicated multidisciplinary
teams, the Centre for Rehabilitation has become an all-India
referral centre that has brought remarkable improvement in the
quality of life of many patients.

90 Liver Transplants in 218 months performed by all other
Mumbai Hospitals from January 1995 to December 2012
Indeed, we are proud to have identified these gaps in the healthcare
system and bridged them successfully. Going forward, we pledge to
continue along the same path in our mission to remain benchmarked
to the best international practices and offer our communities the best
healthcare they so richly deserve.

CENTRE FOR
TRANSPLANT
THE FIRST HOSPITAL TO ESTABLISH A COMPREHENSIVE
LIVER TRANSPLANT UNIT IN WESTERN INDIA
in Western India. Kokilaben Hospital has thus taken the initiative and
established a dedicated Centre for Liver Transplant to fill this gap.
As a departure from the current prevailing healthcare system in
the city of Mumbai, which is dominated by the visiting consultant
model, we have followed a Full-Time Specialist System since
inception. The FTSS enables us to create a model that is patientcentric with consultants being available throughout the day in
the hospital for planned as well as emergency situations. This
system is in line with the best practices followed in leading global Were also conducting a few projects in collaboration with WWU,
healthcare institutions.

bladder. This could be caused by coughing, laughing, sneezing or any exercise
that the weakened pelvic floor muscles are unable to support.
More common in older women—as many as one in five women over the age of
40 are said to have some degree of stress incontinence
Behaviour changes, pelvic floor exercise therapy and medication help improve
symptoms but do not cure stress incontinence

the legs. Symptoms
include leg ache,
night cramps, easy fatigability of leg, restless legs,
heaviness of legs; more pronounced towards the end of
the day
Some people display progressively increasing darkening
of skin around the ankles and lower legs. If left untreated,
they could lead to conditions like eczema with severe
itching around the ankle(s), thrombophlebitis with clots
within the veins leading to sudden onset of pain, bleeding
and non-healing leg wounds
Advantages of Laser and Radio Frequency Ablation

Sleep Apnoea is a potentially serious sleep disorder where
breathing repeatedly stops and starts. You may have sleep apnoea
if you snore loudly and you feel tired even after a full night’s sleep.
Untreated sleep apnoea can lead to hypertension, heart disease and
diabetes
Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (OSA) is a serious, potentially life-altering
and life-threatening condition that is easily identified and effectively
treated. It is believed that four in 100 middle-aged men and two
in 100 middle-aged women have OSA. While OSA is as common as
adult asthma, most sufferers remain undiagnosed and untreated
