ABOUT
AIHF
On the 5th of May 1962, the “All India Heart Foundation” was
established, mainly due to the efforts of the first woman cardiologist
of India, Padma Vibhushan Awardee, Dr. S. Padmavati.
ABOUT NHI
The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step…... And that
step was taken in 1981 when National Heart Institute (NHI) opened its
portals as the Nation’s First Dedicated Cardiac Care Institute and the
First Private Sector Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory outside the
‘Developed World’ at that time.
