Jaslok Hospital And Research Centre

With the mission to become the most respected medical institution of India while providing the highest quality of patient care, Jaslok Hospital Mumbai is one of the oldest tertiary care and multi-specialty trust hospitals in the country. The institution was bestowed to the city of Mumbai by Seth Lookoomia Chanrai in the late 60s when the establishment of large, private hospitals was not at all popular. Situated at Dr. G Deshmukh Marge, Peddar Road, one of the main artery of South Mumbai, the hospital stands above the other structures while it overlooks the Arabian Sea. The name of the hospital was derived from the names of its founder and his wife, Seth LokoomaL and Smt. Jasotibai, and the erstwhile Prime Minister, Mrs. Indira Gandhi, inaugurated it on 6th July 1973.
