Fortis Expands Advanced Respiratory Care with Dedicated Lung Failure Clinics
06 Oct 2026

Fortis Hospital Shalimar Bagh and Fortis Hospital Vasant Kunj have launched dedicated Lung Failure Clinics to provide comprehensive care for patients living with advanced and end-stage lung diseases.

 

Bringing together pulmonologists, transplant specialists, rehabilitation experts and allied healthcare professionals, the clinics offer coordinated support across every stage of care, from diagnosis and treatment optimisation to lung transplant evaluation and long-term follow-up. Services include advanced pulmonary testing, pulmonary rehabilitation, nutritional counselling, sleep assessments, non-invasive ventilation support and patient education.

The clinics address a growing need for specialised respiratory care as conditions linked to air pollution, tobacco exposure, infections and ageing become increasingly common. By enabling earlier intervention and timely referral, the programme aims to improve outcomes and quality of life for patients with complex lung conditions.

The importance of specialist care was recently highlighted by a 29-year-old physiotherapist with interstitial lung disease, whose condition progressively worsened despite treatment. After becoming dependent on continuous oxygen support, she underwent a successful double-lung transplant at Fortis Hospital Shalimar Bagh in May 2026, giving her a renewed chance at life.

Through this multidisciplinary approach, Fortis is expanding access to advanced respiratory and transplant care while providing hope and support to patients and families navigating the challenges of severe lung disease.
