Kidney Transplant Mandi

Introduction

Patients from Mandi and central Himachal Pradesh travel a longer hill-road distance — around 200 km — to
reach Chandigarh/Mohali for advanced kidney and urology care not available locally.

Kidney Transplant Chandigarh at IVY Hospital, Mohali, works closely with Mandi patients on advance planning,
given the travel time involved from this part of the state.
