Kidney Transplant & Dialysis Care for Patients from Bathinda

Introduction

Patients from Bathinda and the Malwa belt of Punjab often need to travel a considerable distance — around 220
km to Chandigarh/Mohali — for advanced kidney transplant and complex dialysis care not available locally.

Kidney Transplant Chandigarh at IVY Hospital, Mohali, works with Bathinda patients to plan treatment
efficiently given the distance involved, minimising the number of trips required wherever possible.
