Eyeing Bigger Horizons: Dr Agarwals Eye Hospitals Acquires Five Eye Hospitals in Pune

Chennai-based and globally operative Dr Agarwals Eye Hospitals has recently boosted its presence in Pune with 100 per cent acquisition of five eye hospitals. The move is planned to amplify brand reach and salience for Dr Agarwals Eye Hospitals in the Maharashtra region. With this latest acquisition, the number of eye care destinations under the aegis of the fast-growing chain climbs to 118 globally.

Marking the occasion, Dr Amar Agarwal – Chairman of Dr Agarwals Eye Hospitals - spoke to the media at length. He shared, “We are delighted that these five eye hospitals, counted among Pune’s finest eye care facilities, are now part of Dr Agarwals Eye Hospitals. We carefully choose our partner hospitals based on qualitative factors such as legacy, surgical skills, business skills, brand name, and goodwill among the patient community. We strongly feel that Pune has a huge pent-up demand for quality eye care.”

Dr Agarwals Eye Hospitals was recently in the news for raising over Rs 1,000 crores from TPG Growth and Temasek, the country’s largest fundraising in the eye care space.

The current change of ownership will not have any bearing on the existing management teams at the five acquired eye hospital, which will carry in their current compositions and capacities. However, Dr Agarwals Eye Hospitals will bring its global expertise to add efficiencies to the status quo across-the-board, namely, by way of staff training and hiring, technology upgradation and optimization of offerings and solutions.
