Medical Air Transport Services
All services available 24/7 from Chandigarh
Chandigarh is North India's premier neurological air ambulance hub. PGI Chandigarh handles India's highest volume of complex neurosurgical cases — we coordinate transfers from Punjab and Haryana district hospitals when cases exceed local capacity and outbound referrals to Delhi AIIMS when PGI capacity is full. Mountain pickups are a specialty: Shimla (90 km), Dharamsala (240 km), and Kullu (200 km) require helicopter deployment due to road times exceeding 4-5 hours in emergencies. Response time from Chandigarh Airport is approximately 55 minutes.
