Nagpur, a city in Maharashtra, is making waves in India’s medical scene. NewEra Mother & Child Hospital just pulled off Central India’s first successful pediatric bone marrow transplant for Thalassemia Major. This big win brings advanced child healthcare right to the doorstep of families who don’t live in big metros.
The procedure happened on a young girl battling this tough inherited blood disorder. A skilled team led by Dr. Atish Bakane, Dr. Priyanka Pawar, and Dr. Anand Bhutada handled it all in the hospital’s dedicated Bone Marrow Transplant (BMT) unit. After careful monitoring for weeks, the girl went home in good health—a huge moment for everyone involved.
Before this, parents in Central India dealing with Thalassemia Major had to travel far to cities like Mumbai or Delhi for treatment. Bone marrow transplant is the go-to cure for this lifelong condition, but it needs top-notch equipment, constant care, and experts from different fields. Now, families in Nagpur and nearby areas can get this life-saving option close by, without the hassle of long journeys.
Hospital leaders are thrilled. Directors Dr. Anand Sancheti, Dr. Nilesh Agrawal, Dr. Nidheesh Mishra, and Dr. Shweta Bhutada praised the team for boosting pediatric healthcare standards in Nagpur. They promised to keep investing in cutting-edge tech, staff training, and research so more kids get the care they need at home.
Dr. Anand Bhutada, a gold medal-winning pediatrician and hospital director, has dreamed of this for years. He’s turned NewEra into a powerhouse for child and newborn care, with intensive units, advanced tests, and procedures that match the best in India.
Watching the young patient leave was emotional for the doctors and her family. Staff called it a day full of hope, and word is spreading fast—families from neighboring states are already reaching out. The hospital plans to grow the program to cover other blood and immune disorders in kids, helping Nagpur become a key spot for complex pediatric treatments.
Experts point out that this success comes from teamwork, modern facilities, and strong leadership. It shows regional hospitals can deliver world-class results, giving hope to thousands of parents fighting their kids’ serious health issues.
This milestone puts NewEra Mother & Child Hospital on the map and changes the game for pediatric care in smaller cities. It’s all about making life-changing treatments accessible where they’re needed most.
