RoyalCare International Hospitals Group — A Vision Built from the Ground Up
Founded and commenced by Dr. K. Madeswaran along with his most trusted team of leading surgeons, doctors, physicians, medical professionals, subject matter experts, and management professionals in the year 2015 as a 50-bedded multi-specialty hospital in Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, RoyalCare Super Specialty Hospital became — within its first two years of operation — one of the most preferred multi-super-specialty hospitals in western Tamil Nadu for emergency, primary, and specialty care across virtually all branches of modern medicine.
A 1,100-bedded ultramodern hospital facility plan was conceived at Neelambur, Coimbatore. RCIHG was built within a record time of 400 days, with the first phase comprising 500 beds dedicated to the society in November 2016. With over 4,00,000 square feet of modern infrastructure, the Centre contained all necessary facilities to deliver comprehensive care under one roof. It has since earned NABH accreditation, Joint Commission International (JCI) accreditation, NABL certification, and SRC's prestigious Centre of Excellence in Neurosurgery designation — making it the first hospital in Tamil Nadu outside Chennai to hold JCI accreditation.

MRgFUS — A Market Leader in Asia for Parkinson's Disease & Essential Tremor
As part of his noble mission of bringing the best medical technologies from all around the world and making them available at an affordable cost, Royalcare Hospitals Group has purchased and implemented one of the latest and biggest breakthroughs in medical science — MRI Magnetic Resonance Imaging-guided (MRI) Focused Ultrasound (MRgFUS) at RoyalCare Super Specialty Hospitals, Neelambur, Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu. Royal Care Super Specialty Hospital is the only neurocare centre in the whole of India facilitated with the expertise and technology to provide this MRgFUS therapy to patients suffering from Essential Tremors and Parkinson's disease with tremors.
MRgFUS (INSIGHTEC Exablate Neuro) at RoyalCare: focused ultrasound therapy for essential tremor and tremor-dominant Parkinson's disease, performed without incisions or permanent implants.
MR-guided Focused Ultrasound (MRgFUS) works by combining two technologies — Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Ultrasound (sound waves) — to provide tremor control without surgical incisions, without general anaesthesia, and with minimal side effects. During treatment, under MRI guidance, sound waves are precisely focused on the small spot in the brain responsible for causing tremors. The energy is gradually increased to create a small therapeutic lesion. Many patients have reported immediate improvement in tremors in the treated limbs, with a 40–80% improvement in tremor severity stably maintained at three years.
MRgFUS has been approved by the Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Royal Care is the first among its peers to introduce to the South Asian market a Focused Ultrasound platform — the EXABLATE NEURO — delivering up to 1,024 ultrasound waves across select points in the skull to precisely ablate a target deep in the brain, performed incision-free in the MRI suite on an outpatient basis. RCIHG's MRgFUS team has successfully performed over 160 procedures in record time with the best patient outcomes.
"Just a day at your RoyalCare Hospitals Group could add years to your life — through the most advanced MRgFUS." — Dr. K. Madeswaran, Founder & Chairman
The unique and exclusive features of MRgFUS include incisionless surgery with little to no risk of infection, no general anaesthesia required, no invasive burr holes or implants, personalised treatment with sub-millimetre target movement accuracy, single session treatment with minimal hospitalisation, and safe and effective procedure with minimal side effects. Hand tremors that cannot be controlled through medications can now be effectively treated — and life-changing transformations are possible through RoyalCare's specialised Neuro Care Technology.
