What Vijaya Diagnostic Centre Limited does
Vijaya Diagnostic Centre operates an integrated network of diagnostic centres offering both pathology (lab testing) and radiology (imaging) services under one roof, primarily serving walk-in retail (B2C) patients. The company runs on a hub-and-spoke model, with larger flagship hubs supported by smaller satellite spoke centres, and also offers online booking and home sample collection. It has grown from a single Hyderabad centre founded in 1981 into a multi-city chain, expanding organically and via acquisitions (PH Diagnostic Centre in Pune, co-branded Vijaya PH; merger of Medinova Diagnostic Services in Kolkata) into West and East India.
