Hyderabad is the capital and largest city of the Indian state of Telangana. It has a population of over  10,534,000. People travel to Hyderabad from the nearest cities like  Secunderabad, Warangal, Nizamabad, and Ramagundam majorly for tourism and their career or medical treatments.

Over the last few years, we have been seeing a lot of medical emergencies in Hyderabad but is our city prepared to handle medical emergencies efficiently? Are there any good ambulance services in Hyderabad? In the past 5 years, Hyderabad lost more than 500 lives and this large number of deaths are caused due to delayed ambulances which indicates Hyderabad desperately needs an on-time ambulance service to overcome these situations that can help to make the difference between life and death.

Hyderabad, with such a huge native and migrant population, sees many medical emergencies which require patient transportation from Hyderabad to other cities like Chennai, Bangalore, and Kochi and in turn welcomes patients from other smaller cities in the vicinity. Since time plays a crucial role in saving a patient’s life, people prefer flights for transporting patients from one place to another.  And Hyderabad is blessed to have a well-facilitated airport. 

To further transport the patient from the airports to the hospitals or to even transport the recovering patients to their homes, ambulances are a safe and quick mode of transport. One can book a VMEDO Ambulance from Hyderabad Airport by calling their 24×7 helpline at 9343-18-0000
