Apollo Spectra Hospitals

History and background

Apollo Spectra Hospitals is the Apollo group's network of hospitals focused on surgical and day-care specialities. In Delhi it operates two centres: one at Plot 3, Block 34, Pusa Road in Karol Bagh, and another at Plot A-2, Outer Ring Road, Chirag Enclave near Greater Kailash-1. Together they bring the Apollo name to focused surgical care in central and South Delhi.

Specialities and centres of excellence

The centres offer general and laparoscopic surgery, orthopaedics and spine, urology, varicose veins, bariatric surgery, gynaecology and ENT, and also perform procedures in ophthalmology, paediatrics, plastic and cosmetic surgery and radiology. The Karol Bagh centre has more than 130 healthcare professionals and about 60 specialist consultants, while the Chirag Enclave centre has over 120 professionals including about 65 specialist consultants.

Technology and facilities

The Karol Bagh hospital has a state-of-the-art endoscopy suite, modern modular operating theatres and an advanced critical care unit. The Chirag Enclave hospital has modular operating theatres, a rehabilitation unit, an in-house pharmacy and a family waiting area for inpatients. Both centres have pharmacies, pathology laboratories, radiology and ambulance services.

International patients

Because Apollo Spectra focuses on planned surgery and day-care procedures, it can be a practical choice for patients who need a defined operation and a short stay. The Chirag Enclave centre is close to Nehru Place and Greater Kailash hotels, while Karol Bagh has a Metro station nearby.

How AlisPro MediTours supports your treatment

AlisPro MediTours is a medical travel coordination service, not a hospital. We do not provide medical treatment, and clinical decisions always rest with your treating doctors. What we do is make the journey to this hospital easier to plan and less stressful to manage.

After you send your medical reports through our enquiry form, our coordinators share them with the hospital's international patient team and help you obtain a written opinion and an estimated cost. If you decide to go ahead, we can help with the medical visa invitation letter, flight planning, airport pickup, accommodation near the hospital, local transport, interpreter support and appointment scheduling. During your stay we stay in touch with you and your family, and after you return home we help arrange follow-up consultations and access to your records.

Costs, package inclusions and waiting times vary by hospital, doctor and treatment, so we recommend asking for a written estimate that clearly states what is and is not included.

Before you travel

Preparation makes a big difference to how smoothly a medical trip goes. Gather your recent medical reports, imaging (with the discs or digital files), a list of current medicines and any previous operation summaries, and share them early so the hospital can give a realistic opinion before you travel.

Ask the hospital or your coordinator for the expected length of stay, the likely total cost and what it includes, whether a family member may accompany you, and what follow-up will be needed after you return home. Confirm the treating doctor's name, the accreditation of the department you will use and how emergencies are handled.

Most international patients enter India on a medical visa, which normally requires an invitation letter from the hospital. Check the validity of your passport, arrange travel insurance that covers medical travel where possible, and plan for extra days in case treatment or recovery takes longer than expected. Keep copies of all documents on your phone and in your luggage.

Travel guide: Delhi

Delhi is served by Indira Gandhi International Airport, and hospitals in the capital are usually 30 to 60 minutes from the airport depending on traffic and time of day. The Delhi Metro reaches most neighbourhoods and is a fast way to travel around the city, while taxis and ride-hailing apps are widely available. Visitors staying for treatment often choose hotels or serviced apartments near the hospital in areas such as South Delhi, Saket, Vasant Kunj or Central Delhi. The weather is hottest from April to June, rainy in July to September, and most comfortable from October to March. Hindi and English are widely spoken.
