Apollo Hospitals announced a landmark achievement of 25,000 successful organ transplants across its network. Apollo Hospitals also launched the Perfect Match Campaign, a comprehensive initiative to raise awareness about the critical need for organ donors, dispel common myths surrounding organ donation, and inspire individuals to register as potential donors.

Dr Ravichand Siddachari, Sr Consultant HPB, Liver and Pancreas Transplant at Apollo Hospitals, led an engaging and informative session with residents of the Rainbow Vistas community in Hyderabad. During the session, Dr Siddachari addressed key questions about transplant eligibility, the organ donation process, and the profound impact that organ donation can have on individuals and families facing life-threatening illnesses.
"Reaching 25,000 transplants is a commendable achievement, but it also serves as a reminder of the immense need that exists," said Dr Siddachari.
