NEW DELHI: A heart and lung transplant centre with state-of-the-art facilities has been launched at a private hospital in Gurugram, which is expected to be a lifeline for patients from Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, and Delhi-NCR.
Dr Sandeep Attawar, founder-director and chair of thoracic organ transplants and mechanical circulatory support at KIMS Hospitals, Hyderabad, will oversee and chair the centre.
