Anamay Chest Hospital in Saket Nagar is a dedicated chest and respiratory care hospital in Bhopal, founded and led by pulmonologist Dr. Ashish Dubey. Unlike general multispecialty hospitals where lung care is one department among many, every part of Anamay, its equipment, staffing, and treatment protocols, is built specifically around respiratory medicine, and the hospital runs 24 hours a day, every day.
Respiratory medicine experience behind every protocol.
Dual qualification spanning TB and critical care.
Equipped for acute respiratory emergencies, severe asthma attacks, and critical pneumonia cases — staffed 24 hours a day rather than only during standard hospital shifts.
For diagnostic and, where needed, interventional airway procedures — without patients being referred to a separate facility.
On-site lung function testing, so results feed directly into the same day's consultation instead of a delayed follow-up.
Skin and blood-based allergy panels, supporting the hospital's long-running allergy and immunotherapy practice.
X-ray and CT coordination for faster diagnosis of pneumonia, TB, ILD, and other conditions that need visual confirmation.
Designed with hygiene standards suited to respiratory patients, who are often more vulnerable to secondary infection.
For sudden chest pain, breathlessness, or respiratory distress — with no separate after-hours protocol to navigate.
Not a secondary department competing with cardiology or surgery for resources.
Decisions made by the specialist who built the facility — not admin layers.
Diagnostics, OPD and critical care under one roof — no shuttling mid-treatment.
Both OPD and ICU/emergency — unlike clinics that close in the evening.
Patient feedback specifically praises diagnostic accuracy.
GPs across Bhopal regularly refer patients for specialist lung care.
Beyond the clinical equipment, Anamay Chest Hospital is designed around the practical realities of respiratory illness. Patients recovering from pneumonia, TB, or a severe asthma exacerbation are often more susceptible to picking up a secondary infection, so room hygiene and ventilation are treated as part of the treatment plan, not an afterthought.
The hospital offers a range of admission options, from general wards to private and deluxe rooms, so families can choose a level of comfort and privacy that suits their situation and budget, without compromising on the standard of respiratory care itself.
Anamay Chest Hospital sits on the AIIMS Road / RRL Tiraha stretch in Saket Nagar, Habib Ganj — right inside Bhopal's primary medical corridor, close to AIIMS Bhopal. Being situated in this corridor makes it straightforward to reach by road from most parts of the city.
The premises include wheelchair-accessible entrances and dedicated parking, which matters for patients arriving in respiratory distress or with mobility limitations.
Respiratory patients — particularly those with TB, pneumonia, or a weakened immune response from chronic lung disease — are more vulnerable to picking up a secondary infection during a hospital stay than the average patient. Anamay's private and deluxe rooms are maintained with this in mind, with hygiene protocols designed to reduce cross-contamination between patients admitted for different types of respiratory illness, rather than treating every admission the same way regardless of what brought them in.
"Open 24 hours" is a claim a lot of hospitals make on paper without it meaning much in practice. At Anamay, it means the same specialist-led ICU team that handles a 2 p.m. asthma flare-up is also on duty at 2 a.m.
It means a patient with sudden breathlessness at midnight isn't triaged by a general night shift and told to come back in the morning — they're seen by a team trained specifically in respiratory emergencies, with the equipment already in place to act on it immediately.

Anamay Chest Hospital's reputation in Bhopal hasn't been built through advertising, it's grown largely through word of mouth and consistent patient reviews on platforms like Practo and Justdial. For a specialty hospital in a competitive healthcare market, that kind of organic reputation tends to reflect actual outcomes and patient experience more than marketing spend does, which is part of why so many new patients arrive already having heard the name from a friend, relative, or referring doctor before they ever search for it online.
Most hospitals in Bhopal treat respiratory disease as one of many departments, competing for ICU beds, imaging time, and specialist attention. Anamay was deliberately built the other way around: every bed, every piece of diagnostic equipment, and every staff member's training exists because of chest and lung disease specifically. That focus shows up in small but meaningful ways — nursing staff trained specifically in respiratory distress protocols, ICU equipment sized and calibrated for pulmonary emergencies rather than general critical care, and a bronchoscopy suite that's actually used regularly enough for the team to be genuinely practised at it.
A common frustration with fragmented healthcare is being sent from a general clinic to a diagnostic centre across town, then to a hospital for admission, then to yet another facility for follow-up testing — with reports getting lost or delayed at every handoff. Anamay is structured to avoid that. A patient can walk in with an unexplained cough, get a PFT and chest imaging coordinated the same day, receive a diagnosis, and — if needed — be admitted directly into the same hospital's ICU without a single referral letter changing hands. For a condition where timing genuinely matters, like a worsening pneumonia or an acute asthma attack, cutting out those handoffs can make a real difference.
General physicians across Bhopal regularly refer patients to Anamay Chest Hospital for cases that need pulmonology-specific diagnostics or critical care beyond what a general OPD can offer. Families coordinating care for an elderly relative with COPD, or a child with recurring asthma flare-ups, often find it easier to have a single hospital handle both the routine follow-ups and the occasional emergency, rather than juggling separate providers for each.
For patients who need to be admitted rather than treated as an outpatient, Anamay's team talks families through room options, expected length of stay where that can reasonably be estimated, and what to bring for a comfortable admission. Because the hospital is single-specialty, admission planning tends to be more predictable than at a large general hospital, where respiratory patients sometimes wait for a bed while it's allocated between competing departments.
