A new multidisciplinary hospital exclusively for women, The Women’s Hospital (TWH), was inaugurated in South Delhi’s Nehru Enclave on Wednesday. Founded by entrepreneur Anika Parashar and supported by a $5 million investment, the 30,000-square-foot facility focuses on integrated healthcare for women across all life stages, from adolescence and reproductive health to menopause, aging, and cancer care. The hospital highlights critical gaps in India’s women’s healthcare system, citing data that 355 million women menstruate in the country, 23 million girls drop out of school due to poor menstrual hygiene, and 60,000 cervical cancer deaths occur annually. It also notes that 25% of Indian women suffer from PCOD/PCOS and one in six couples faces infertility issues. TWH features dedicated clinics for adolescence, fertility, pregnancy, postpartum recovery, menopause, chronic health, cancer screening, and mental health. The clinical team includes specialists in gynecology, neonatology, oncology, urogynecology, gastroenterology, functional medicine, and radiology. The facility includes 34 beds, 12 NICU beds, three modular operation theaters, three delivery suites, robotic-assisted surgery, and advanced fetal medicine infrastructure. While primarily serving women, the hospital will treat non-women patients only in emergencies, referring them to other facilities. The hospital’s Korean-designed operating suite and advanced technology aim to provide specialized, preventive, and holistic care without judgment, according to founder Anika Parashar, who cited 25 years of experience in identifying gaps in women’s healthcare.
