Which corporate hospital in Hyderabad has the best Facebook Cover image? “Integrity is the ability to stand by an idea.” ― Ayn Rand, The Fountainhead Most of you thought it is Apollo Health City's Facebook cover image but it's not. Surprised? Read on. Though Apollo Health City Facebook page has 65k followers, using a generic campaign creative on its cardiac treatment expertise looks vague. My feeling is that either a patient or a star heart transplant surgeon should have been at the heart of the cover image. In case of the latter, my bet is on Dr Alla Gopala Krishna Gokhale, Cardio Thoracic Surgeon, who could have been featured instead but the management may be wary of a doctor becoming bigger than the hospital. This creative goes well with the violet color of Care Hospitals but the designer should have run a spell-check on November! By the way, lung cancer being the most common cancer in Indian men could be factually incorrect. It s...
Why Hyderabad's Top Hospitals are not on Instagram?
Surprise, surprise!
The only two JCI accredited hospitals in Hyderabad - Continental Hospitals and Apollo Hospitals- are not on Instagram.
A popular photo & video sharing social media platform, Instagram is a good branding tool and is amply being used by Sunshine Hospitals in Hyderabad but most others are conspicuous by their absence for unknown reasons.
This I learnt after I did a background check of five top corporate hospitals in Hyderabad, viz
Sunshine Hospitals, Continental Hospitals, Apollo Hospitals, Kims Hospitals and Yashoda Hospitals.
Good engagement:
With Instagram, good engagement with fans is possible as in Facebook. Take the case of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital's Instagram account. With just 633 posts, they managed to gain 197k followers!
Though Hyderabad based Sunshine Hospitals started late, they managed to gain 476 followers.

News Analysis: Namesake Authorization Committee @ Continental Hospitals to blame for Kidney mess?
For more updates, log on to www.dailyhealthnewsdigest.com The alleged kidney racket in continental hospitals may have shocked medical fraternity in Hyderabad after Gachibowli police registered a case against Harish Manian, Continental Hospital chief operating officer, Gokul Prem Kumar, general manager, international business and Ramesh Kirshnan, CEO for reportedly allowing kidney transplantation from unrelated donors. It may be recalled that cases were booked under Sections 468 (forgery for the purpose of cheating), 471 (using forged document), 420 (cheating) and 506 (criminal intimidation) and Sections 19 and 19A of the Transplantation of Human Organs and Tissues Act (HOTA) based on complaint lodged by Dr Praveen Kumar, former medical director of Continental Hospital.

Analysis: Who’s to be blamed for the mess in Fathima Institute of Medical Sciences?
T he starry-eyed dreams of 100 young medicos came crashing when the Medical Council of India (MCI) decided to de-recognise the MBBS admissions for the entire 2016-17 batch in Fathima Institute of Medical Sciences, Kadapa. These medicos from Andhra Pradesh created a scene in Delhi when they threatened to commit suicide after the MCI took the harsh decision against the private medical college for failing to meet education standards at its Executive Committee meet held on 23d May, 2017 in New Delhi but who is to be blamed for this mess? Is it the over-ambitious college management or the MCI’s lethargic assessment system or the poor decision making skills of the medicos and their parents? Well, minimum medical standards are required to be met by all medical colleges in the country as set by MCI so that those passing out have enough skills and training to treat patients. But it is foolhardy to expect MCI’s assessment system to deliver its verdict on formal recognition of a cour...
