Cura Hospitals — Bangalore, India

Cura Hospitals is a private multispecialty hospital network established in 2018. The hospital operates across two campuses in Bengaluru, India. It provides coordinated care through a team of over 200 specialists working across 40 medical disciplines.

Accreditations and Clinical Standards

The hospital holds NABH accreditation after meeting SHCO requirements for healthcare quality. Specialists follow safety standards that include rigorous instrument sterilization and rapid emergency readiness. Complex cases go through multidisciplinary review, so multiple specialists weigh in together.

In oncology, a dedicated tumor board oversees cancer care. Dr. Anthony Pais, the Clinical Director, leads this board. This collective review process aims to select the most effective treatment path for every patient.

Specialized Medical Directions

The neurosurgery department treats brain abnormalities by selecting techniques based on tumor location and size. Dr. Abhay Sikaria leads neurosurgical interventions. The team performs several critical procedures:

• Craniotomy
• Hydrocephalus and shunt surgeries
• Trans-sphenoidal hypophysectomy for pituitary tumors
• Brain tumor removals

The urology department focuses on treating kidney stones and urethral strictures. Dr. Madhu S N specializes in these urological interventions. The clinic provides several stone removal options:

• Flexible ureteroscopy (URS)
• Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL)
• Ureteroscopy with laser lithotripsy
• Cystoscopy for bladder and urethra diagnostics

Gastroenterology services cover general, laparoscopic, and laser surgeries. Dr. Devaprashanth M leads this direction with a focus on surgical gastroenterology and proctology. The department manages digestive tract conditions, including esophageal cancer.

Technology and Critical Care Capacity

The hospital uses robotic-assisted surgery systems for greater precision during procedures. Diagnostic tools include 3T MRI, abdominal CT scans, and specialized ultrasound equipment. These allow for detailed imaging before surgical planning.

Critical care is central to the facility. The hospital maintains 60 fully equipped intensive care beds across its branches. Support is available through specialized units:

• Intensive Care Unit (ICU)
• High Dependency Unit (HDU)
• Neonatal and Pediatric ICU (NICU/PICU)

Bedside monitors track heart rate, oxygen, and blood pressure in real time. This means patients in critical condition receive an immediate response.

International Patient Services

A dedicated team manages the journey for patients traveling from abroad. They coordinate medical opinions, treatment planning, and travel logistics. Support is available in both English and Hindi.

Online consultations are available with neurosurgeons, urologists, and oncologists for remote case reviews. For eligible outpatient procedures, the hospital offers same-day release. The facility also supports cashless treatment through various insurance providers and Third-Party Administrators.
