Here’s what Dr Caesar Sengupta, Vice President Operations at Thyrocare, had to say on the launch of new processing labs, ‘’Thyrocare Technologies Limited has carved a niche for itself over the years, in the diagnostic tests segment, for their focus on quality, affordable pricing, commitment and speed. Our primary goal is to make state-of-the-art quality processing laboratories available to one and all so that we can aim for a quicker turnaround time for reports. We have already established 16 regional laboratories, three zonal labs, and four more labs have recently opened in Ahmedabad, Raipur, Ranchi, and Nagpur. The upcoming launch of laboratories in Jaipur and Vizag will be a further commitment to our belief in providing accessible healthcare. We strive for Thyrocare Technologies to be the fastest yet most reliable and these labs will aid in achieving our mission by fortifying our local brand presence.”
