Hospital discovery · Pulmonology
Review 5 validated Pulmonology hospitals, 12 affiliated pulmonologists and 5 mapped respiratory services in Mumbai, India.
“Best” reflects the hospital-discovery search phrase. Hospitals are ordered alphabetically and are not clinically ranked, scored or endorsed.
Quick answer
Pulmonology assesses and treats diseases of the lungs, airways and pleura. GAF’s current India catalog includes diagnostic sampling, therapeutic bronchoscopy, pleural procedures and lung transplantation; the appropriate service depends on imaging, breathing reserve, oxygen needs, bleeding risk, the clinical question and whether a result will change treatment. This Mumbai page is limited to hospitals with a listed pulmonologist relationship.
5 validated hospital relationships currently match Pulmonology in Mumbai, including Apollo Hospitals, Navi Mumbai, Gleneagles Hospital, Mumbai, KIMS Hospitals, Thane, Medicover Hospital, Navi Mumbai, Wockhardt Hospital, Mumbai. Counts require a matching hospital specialty and affiliated pulmonologist; they are not rankings or claims about outcomes.
5 respiratory services have validated hospital and doctor relationships in Mumbai, including Bronchoscopy, EBUS (Endobronchial Ultrasound), Airway Stenting, Medical Thoracoscopy, TBNA (Transbronchial Needle Aspiration). Open a procedure page for the exact hospitals and doctors connected to that procedure.

City context
Mumbai combines multi-specialty pulmonology departments, oncology institutes with lung-cancer diagnostic pathways, pleural services and respiratory critical care. This page does not infer that every centre performs bronchoscopy or has every approach listed. Name the campus with a dedicated bronchoscopy suite, continuous respiratory monitoring, pathology and microbiology handling, anaesthesia support and access to rigid bronchoscopy or ICU if escalation is needed. Doctor and hospital cards in Mumbai resolve only from exact live CMS relationships for Bronchoscopy. If that exact relationship is absent, cards must remain empty; a generic Pulmonology or hospital label cannot verify current acceptance. This is a catalog gap, not an availability or quality claim.
Mumbai combines multi-specialty pulmonology departments, oncology institutes with lung-cancer diagnostic pathways, pleural services and respiratory critical care. This page does not infer that every centre performs EBUS or has every approach listed. Confirm the named campus has linear EBUS and Doppler equipment, compatible needles, anaesthesia and respiratory rescue capability, and a documented pathway for cytology, cell block, microbiology and molecular specimen handling; ROSE should be claimed only when scheduled. Doctor and hospital cards in Mumbai resolve only from exact live CMS relationships for EBUS (Endobronchial Ultrasound).

General accreditation does not establish current bronchoscopy acceptance or equipment. Name the campus with a dedicated bronchoscopy suite, continuous respiratory monitoring, pathology and microbiology handling, anaesthesia support and access to rigid bronchoscopy or ICU if escalation is needed.
Send chest ct or hrct report and complete image files showing the airway or lung target, previous bronchoscopy, lavage, cytology, histopathology and microbiology reports and current oxygen or respiratory-support details where applicable.
Obtain written acceptance from a named pulmonologist or interventional pulmonologist and verify the campus, anaesthesia, ICU backup, device availability and pathology pathway.
Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport: Mumbai and Navi Mumbai campuses are not interchangeable. Confirm the exact bronchoscopy suite, pathology laboratory and emergency campus before choosing accommodation, particularly during monsoon traffic. Stay on the same side of the harbour as the treating campus, with lift access and space for oxygen or respiratory equipment if prescribed. Humidity and monsoon conditions can worsen fatigue and complicate equipment transport; flexible departure dates are practical after biopsy or pleural drainage.
Obtain written acceptance from a named pulmonologist or interventional pulmonologist and verify the campus, anaesthesia, ICU backup, device availability and pathology pathway.
Treatment guides
Bronchoscopy is a minimally invasive airway procedure in which a thin flexible scope with a light, camera and working channel passes through the nose or mouth, larynx and trachea into the bronchi. It can inspect the airway, wash cells and microbes from a lung segment, brush or biopsy a lesion and, in therapeutic cases, remove secretions or treat an obstruction.
Endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS) combines flexible bronchoscopy with a linear ultrasound transducer at the scope tip so structures beyond the airway wall can be seen and sampled. EBUS-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) commonly targets defined mediastinal and hilar lymph-node stations or a central peribronchial mass.
Airway stenting places a tubular prosthesis in the trachea or a main bronchus to hold open a clinically important central-airway narrowing, seal selected airway defects or support a collapsing airway. Silicone and self-expanding covered metal stents behave differently and usually require bronchoscopic surveillance and a removal or revision strategy.
Medical thoracoscopy is a single- or limited-port examination of the pleural space performed by a trained pulmonologist, usually under local anaesthetic with conscious sedation in a procedure room. It permits drainage, direct inspection, multiple parietal pleural biopsies and, when appropriate, talc poudrage pleurodesis followed by chest-drain management.
Conventional transbronchial needle aspiration (TBNA) passes a sheathed needle through the bronchial wall into a lymph node or peribronchial lesion selected from CT and airway landmarks, without real-time ultrasound. Aspirated cells and fragments are prepared for cytology, cell block and selected microbiology.

Conditions
Conditions appear only when the controlled specialty profile or canonical procedure content records the relationship.
Visible narrowing, tumour, retained secretions or unexplained airway change may require diagnostic or therapeutic bronchoscopy after CT and clinical review.
Target location and the tissue needed for pathology or molecular testing guide EBUS, TBNA, endobronchial or transbronchial sampling.
Selected cases may need transbronchial forceps or cryobiopsy only after multidisciplinary review of HRCT pattern, physiology and procedural risk.
Fluid, pleural thickening or suspected infection or malignancy may require drainage, biopsy or thoracoscopic inspection according to imaging and stability.
Suspected aspiration can require urgent flexible or rigid bronchoscopy with anaesthesia and airway-rescue planning.
Lung transplantation is a separate multidisciplinary programme requiring disease, functional, psychosocial, donor and transplant-risk assessment.

Initially I was very hesitant what to do, where to go for the treatment of my father who was suffering with prostate cancer. Thanks to google, I came into touch with Gaf Healthcare. They have arranged everything, starting from treatment plan, video consultation, airport pickup, to surgery and following up. My father was operated in Sahyadri Pune, robotic prostatectomy was done. Now he is fine.
★★★★★
The hospitality was at its point. I appreciate the great service I got from the team. Being away from Home and get the feeling like you are at home is what Gaf is doing. Thank you once more, this have lifetime memories in my life.
★★★★★
Wonderful experience with Gaf Healthcare. I was quite hesitant before traveling. But the way entire journey has been planned, charted out and facilitated by Gaf was truly exceptional. Dr. Ritu in Max has treated me well. My eye surgery went well.
