Wockhardt Hospital, Mumbai — India's First Fully Wireless Hospital
About The Hospital
Wockhardt Hospital
1877, Dr. Anandrao Nair Road, Mumbai Central, Mumbai 400 011, Maharashtra, India
Wockhardt Hospital in Mumbai Central occupies a distinctive place in Indian healthcare — not just for its clinical capabilities, but for its technological distinction: it is the first fully wireless hospital in Asia and the first hospital in India to implement wireless ECG management systems, paperless ICU operations, and GPS patient tracking. These innovations, pioneered by the Wockhardt group, reflect the hospital's commitment to using technology to eliminate medical errors, improve care coordination, and enhance patient safety.
The 350-bed, 21-storey hospital on Dr. Anandrao Nair Road in South Mumbai — in the heart of the city's business and financial district — opened in 2014 and quickly established itself as one of Mumbai's premier tertiary care facilities for international and domestic patients seeking high-technology, patient-centred care. The hospital holds NABH accreditation and is seeking JCI certification, affirming its alignment with global quality standards.
Cardiac sciences at Wockhardt Mumbai includes a high-volume cardiac catheterisation laboratory with complex coronary intervention capability, structural heart disease procedures (TAVR, MitraClip, ASD closure), cardiac electrophysiology, and cardiac surgery covering CABG, valve replacement, and aortic surgery. The neurosciences department manages stroke (with a dedicated stroke unit), brain and spinal tumours, epilepsy, and complex spinal surgery. The orthopaedics programme offers total joint replacement and robotic-assisted techniques.
Mumbai Central's location — in South Mumbai, close to the city's railway network and well-served by road — makes Wockhardt Hospital accessible from across Mumbai and from Mumbai International Airport (approximately 20–30 minutes by road during off-peak hours).
