Full Description

Air Ambulance Services in Mysore

Accretion Aviation operates an ICU-equipped air ambulance in Mysore, with a doctor and paramedic on board and a ground ambulance at both ends. We activate within 2 hours of your call, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

Mysuru has good hospitals, including JSS Hospital, Apollo BGS Hospitals in Kuvempunagar, Cauvery Heart and Multispeciality Hospital in Metagalli, and K R Hospital on Irwin Road. Some cases still need a higher level of care, such as advanced neurosurgery, cardiac surgery, transplant work or oncology. For those, Bangalore is the closest option, roughly 150 km away. A flight takes under an hour. The road can take around three hours, and a patient on a ventilator or with unstable vitals should not spend that time in traffic.

We move patients from Mysuru city and from across the region: Mandya, Nanjangud, Hunsur, Chamarajanagar, Hassan and Kodagu. We also handle emergencies involving visitors to Mysore Palace, Chamundi Hills, Srirangapatna, Brindavan Gardens and the Bandipur and Nagarhole forest belt.
