Location and access
The hospital address is 6-3-871/A, Greenlands Road, Beside CM Camp Office, Begumpet, Hyderabad, Telangana 500016. Begumpet sits at the centre of the city, between Ameerpet, Somajiguda, Punjagutta and Secunderabad, which makes the hospital reachable from most parts of Hyderabad by road and metro. Families from Panjagutta, Khairatabad, Sanathnagar, Balkampet, Prakash Nagar and Rasoolpura often visit for consultations, day-care procedures and admissions. Patients are requested to call 7207904418 before coming in, so that the team can guide them to the right department and reduce waiting time.
Outpatient consultations
Outpatient (OPD) consultations run from Monday to Saturday. There are no OPD consultations on Sunday, although emergency care remains available. The first consultation at the hospital is free, and it includes basic checks of blood pressure, weight, oxygen saturation (SpO2), pulse rate and body temperature. This first visit gives the doctor a starting picture of the patient's health and helps decide whether any tests or follow-up visits are needed.
Doctors and departments
The hospital's consultant team includes Dr Sishir Reddy, General Physician, who sees adults with fever, infections, diabetes, blood pressure problems, thyroid concerns, breathing complaints and other everyday medical conditions; Dr Shalini B, Gynaecologist, who looks after women's health including periods, pregnancy care, menopause and gynaecological conditions; Dr Shiv Sandeep, Orthopaedic surgeon, who treats bone, joint, back and sports injuries, fractures and arthritis; and Dr Deeraj Jaliwar, General Surgeon, who handles surgical conditions such as hernia, appendicitis, gallbladder stones, piles, fissures, lumps and wound care. An oncologist is also available at the hospital for cancer-related consultations.
General medicine
The general medicine department is often the first stop for patients. Common reasons for a visit include seasonal fevers such as dengue, malaria and typhoid, viral infections, stomach upsets, high blood sugar, high blood pressure, cholesterol, anaemia, thyroid problems, and long-term follow-up of chronic illnesses. The physician reviews symptoms, orders tests when they are useful, explains the reports in plain language and plans treatment. Patients with conditions that need admission can be moved to the inpatient wards under the same team.
Obstetrics and gynaecology
The gynaecology department supports women at different stages of life. Services include consultations for irregular or painful periods, polycystic ovaries, white discharge, urinary infections, fertility questions, antenatal check-ups, pregnancy care and delivery planning, postnatal follow-up, and menopause symptoms such as hot flushes, poor sleep and mood changes. Screening advice for cervical and breast health is also given during consultations.
Orthopaedics
The orthopaedic department treats knee pain, shoulder pain, neck and back pain, slipped disc symptoms, sprains, ligament injuries, fractures, osteoarthritis, frozen shoulder, heel pain and sports injuries. Treatment can range from medicines, bracing and physiotherapy advice to surgical care where it is needed. Older adults with joint problems and people recovering from accidents are among the patients the department regularly sees.
General surgery
The general surgery department manages conditions that may need an operation or a minor procedure. These include hernias, appendicitis, gallstones, piles, fissures, fistulas, abscesses, cysts and lumps, varicose veins, diabetic foot wounds and injuries that need stitching or dressing. Surgeons discuss the reason for surgery, the expected recovery and the care needed afterwards before any planned procedure.
Emergency and inpatient care
Because the hospital works 24/7, patients can come in at any hour with emergencies such as high fever, chest discomfort, breathlessness, accidents, severe abdominal pain or sudden weakness. The hospital has 100 beds for inpatient care, and patients admitted are monitored by nurses and doctors through the day and night. Family members receive regular updates on the patient's condition.
Senior citizen care
Older adults often live with more than one long-term condition, such as diabetes, blood pressure, arthritis and memory problems. The hospital's doctors work together to review medicines, check for falls risk, and plan follow-up, so that elderly patients and their families have one place to come back to.
Cashless treatment and government schemes
Vivekananda Hospital is empanelled under the Central Government Health Scheme (CGHS), so eligible central government employees and pensioners can receive cashless treatment. The hospital is also part of the Telangana Employees Health Scheme (NEHS, also known as WeCare) for eligible state government employees and pensioners. Patients with these schemes are advised to carry their scheme cards and a valid photo ID, and to call the hospital in advance so the billing team can explain the process.
Diagnostics and tests
Doctors may advise blood tests, urine tests, X-rays, ultrasound or other investigations depending on the condition. Test results are explained to the patient during the follow-up consultation, along with what the numbers mean and what the next steps are.
Health information for the community
Alongside treatment, the hospital shares plain-language health information on topics such as dengue platelet counts, diabetes and prediabetes, thyroid tests, liver function test reports, women's health, joint pain and senior citizen care. The aim is to help families in Hyderabad understand common symptoms, know which tests are useful, and recognise when it is time to see a doctor.
Preventive health checks
Many health problems, such as high blood pressure, diabetes, thyroid imbalance and high cholesterol, develop quietly without clear symptoms in the early stages. The hospital's doctors encourage adults, especially those above forty or with a family history of these conditions, to have regular check-ups. A simple review of blood pressure, weight, blood sugar and a few routine blood tests can pick up problems early, when they are easier to manage with lifestyle changes and timely treatment.
