Cloudnine Group of Hospitals is a chain of maternity, childcare, and fertility hospitals headquartered in Bengaluru, India. It was founded by neonatologist Dr. R. Kishore Kumar with his team of three co-founders in 2007.[1] Cloudnine Group of Hospitals is a joint venture of the Kids Clinic India Private Limited, owned by Dr. R. Kishore Kumar, and Scrips N Scrolls India, a company into property development and investments.[2] Cloudnine has 19 hospitals and clinics in Bengaluru, Chennai, Gurugram, Pune, Mumbai and Chandigarh.[3][4][5][6] In addition to maternal care, Cloudnine also provides Gynecology, Pediatrics, Intensive Care, Fertility and Neonatal Care services.[7]
History[edit]
Cloudnine Hospitals was co-founded by neonatologist Dr. R Kishore Kumar. Seeing crowded, unhygienic government hospitals and poorly-run private nursing centres in the country, Dr. Kumar and his team of three co-founders decided to focus on providing quality newborn care. Dr. Kumar, who spent many years working overseas in the area of infant care, bootstrapped the new venture.[8]
Specialities[edit]
Cloudnine Hospitals specializes in comprehensive maternity services with complete antenatal and postnatal care, preferred or medically-required delivery options, gynaecological services for women of all ages, paediatric care, critical case management, minimally invasive surgeries, fertility services, and stem cell banking.[9] A pregnant woman can receive services of lactation counselors, Lamaze therapists, and nutritionists set in facilities that offers 4D scans, and foetal anomaly studies. Cloudnine Hospitals is specialized in foetal medicine units to monitor high risk pregnancies by focusing on the special needs of the baby and performing interventions, if needed, whilst in the womb.[10] Cloudnine Hospitals’ paediatric care involves a team of experts across dermatology, neurology, cardiology and developmental paediatrics.[11]
