Apollo Health & Lifestyle Limited (AHLL), a subsidiary of Apollo Hospitals Enterprise Limited (AHEL), has been a significant presence in India’s retail healthcare sector since 2002, driven by the aspiration to ‘Touch a Billion Lives’. With a transformative journey spanning the last two decades, AHLL have served nearly 20 million+ patients through 5500+ doctors.

The Company today runs the largest chain of standardized primary health care Models – Multispeciality Clinics, under the brand name “Apollo Clinic” in the India & the Middle East, Diabetes Management Clinics under Apollo Sugar and Dialysis clinics under Apollo Diagnostics. The Company also Operates Specialty formats under Apollo Cradle (a Centre for Women &  Children) and Apollo Spectra Hospitals (a hospital for minimally invasive surgeries).

With a key aim ‘to bring medical care closer to the home of the patient, bridging the gap between tertiary care and the home”, AHLL has established the nation’s largest network for day-to-day healthcare that can be delivered outside large format hospital settings.

In India, the healthcare industry is undergoing a revolutionary change mainly due to the rising income levels, increasing awareness on lifestyle diseases, changing attitude from prescriptive to preventive healthcare, growing insurance market and increasing government spending on healthcare. New and innovative healthcare delivery models are coming in the market including planned surgical centres, similar to the Ambulatory surgery centres in the U.S.

Our visionary Founder Chairman Dr. Prathap C. Reddy identified the retail healthcare opportunity long before others and thus Apollo Clinics were established as a network. Since setup of its first Clinic in 2002, AHLL has experienced significant growth and come a long way not only in terms its geographical footprint and number of centres but also in the variety of service delivery formats it operates today. The recent acquisition of Nova Specialty Hospitals by AHLL places the Company as the largest player in multi-specialty planned surgical centres in India. In the last 4 years, the business has expanded from 2 formats to 5 formats and established leadership in practically every segment that it operates in.
