Coimbatore Kidney Care and Research Limited (CKC) has a legacy that spans more than four decades, beginning in 1978 as a proprietorship under the name Coimbatore Kidney Centre. In its early years, the centre offered dedicated kidney care and basic pathology services using traditional diagnostic methods, serving as one of the first facilities of its kind in the region.
With a vision to expand into comprehensive, multidisciplinary care, the organisation was restructured in 1990 as Coimbatore Kidney Centre and Research Private Limited under the Companies Act, 1956. This transition marked a significant milestone in its journey, enabling CKC to provide integrated services in nephrology, pathology, radiology, urology, neurology, and laboratory medicine—all under one roof.
Over the past 35 years, CKC has grown into one of India’s foremost standalone kidney care hospitals, consistently recognised for its advanced diagnostic and therapeutic capabilities. The institution has been at the forefront of dialysis, kidney transplantation, and specialised renal treatments, setting new benchmarks in clinical outcomes. Its reputation extends beyond Coimbatore, with nephrologists across the country regarding CKC as a model for excellence in nephrology and transplantation services.
What began as a small centre with a focused mission has today evolved into a trusted, multi-specialty hospital. Alongside its core expertise in renal care, CKC has expanded to include cardiology, oncology, neurology, and critical care, ensuring holistic treatment for patients with complex health needs.
Guided by its founding philosophy of ethical, patient-centric care, CKC continues to blend modern technology with compassion. Its journey from a modest proprietorship to a nationally recognised institution reflects its unwavering commitment to healing, innovation, and service—making it a beacon of trust in healthcare for the region and beyond.
