The Heart & Diabetic Department is manned by senior Cardiologists. Coronary stenting is routine and performed by most of the invasive cardiologists. Patients with high risk and multi vessel involvement are also undertaken. Primary angioplasty, an approach of opening blocked coronary artery during acute myocardial infarction, in place of thrombolysis is practised in suitable cases. Non-coronary intervention deals with variety of cardiovascular abnormalities. Subclavean, iliac, femoral and carotid artery balloon angioplasty and stenting are being performed. Vascular dissection and aneurysm repair are also conducted with covered stents.

The department also offers both inpatient and outpatient service and clinical facilities for every type of diabetes problem. The focus is primarily on outpatient management of endocrinal and metabolic diseases to prevent complications and hospital admissions. Patient awareness is a key area of importance to manage these diseases effectively. The consultant endocrinologist has been trained in some of the premier institutes in the world and is capable of treating both adults and children. The team provides comprehensive care for children with diabetes and educates them regarding their disease.
