📍 Sector 69, SAS Nagar (Mohali), Punjab · Serving Chandigarh Tri-City
We want to be honest with you before you read further. Gini's ICU is a 30-bed specialist-led unit that excels at medical emergencies — particularly diabetic crises, respiratory failure, sepsis, pulmonary emergencies, post-surgical care, and multi-drug infections. Our specialist doctors are genuinely exceptional — Dr. Anil Bhansali (former PGIMER Head of Endocrinology) and Dr. Rahul Katyal (MD Pulmonary Medicine & Non-Invasive Cardiology) provide a level of specialist backup that large hospitals charge ₹1 lakh/day to access.
A dedicated cardiac surgery ICU, a neuro ICU for complex brain surgeries, or trauma centre capacity for major road accidents. For those specific cases — cardiac surgery, neurosurgery, major trauma — Fortis or PGI is the right choice. We will tell you this ourselves if you call. We never hold a patient who needs a different level of care.
For everything else — and that's the majority of ICU cases — Gini offers something rare: world-class specialists at community hospital prices.
An ICU stay at Fortis Hospital Mohali or Max Super Speciality Hospital typically costs ₹60,000–1,00,000 per day — including room, monitoring, medicines, and nursing. A 7-day ICU stay: ₹4–7 lakhs. A 14-day stay: ₹8–14 lakhs. Most families exhaust savings, take loans, or liquidate assets.
At Gini Advanced Care Hospital, ICU care costs ₹11,000–27,000 per day — all-inclusive. Same NABH accreditation. The same infection control standards. The same monitoring equipment. Ventilator support when needed. The difference is that Gini is a focused specialist hospital — not a hotel with a hospital attached.
For a family facing a medical crisis, this is not a small difference. It is often the difference between financial survival and financial devastation.

For the conditions Gini specialises in — diabetes emergencies, respiratory failure, sepsis, post-surgical care — the clinical outcomes at Gini are equivalent to or better than larger hospitals. This is because the specialist doctors backing our ICU are world-class. For conditions requiring cardiac surgery, neurosurgery, or major trauma — go to Fortis, Max, or PGI. We will tell you this ourselves.
Some early reviews from 2022–2023 mentioned coordination gaps during our initial years. We take this seriously. Since 2024, we have: hired full-time intensivists (Dr. Atul Mahajan and Dr. Jatin Garg) for round-the-clock ICU cover, implemented structured nursing handover protocols, introduced twice-daily family communication updates from a designated nurse, and established a CGHS desk for insurance documentation. We are not a perfect hospital — but we are a hospital that acts on feedback.
Possible, but rare for the conditions we admit. We are transparent about what we can and cannot manage. If a patient requires cardiac surgery, interventional cardiology, or neurosurgery, we coordinate the transfer early — not in a crisis. We have referral relationships with Fortis, PGIMER, and other centres. Transferring a patient at the right time, with the right documentation, is part of good ICU care.
