For the medical fraternity

Consult online.
Consult at our clinics.
Consult at the
patient's bedside.

Diagnex is building home-care infrastructure on a thirty-year diagnostics foundation. We are looking for the consultants who will lead it — across nephrology and every speciality that follows a patient home.

The gap · why we are building this

The constraint is not
clinical knowledge.
It is reach.

India's renal burden has outgrown the physical footprint of its dialysis infrastructure and the availability of its nephrologists. The question is no longer what medicine knows — it is how far a specialist opinion can travel.

2.2 lakh
new end-stage renal disease patients added in India every year
~10%
of Indian ESRD patients actually receive renal replacement therapy
1.9
nephrologists per million population — among the lowest densities worldwide
3.4 cr
dialysis sessions a year is the estimated national requirement

Sources: Global Dialysis Perspective — India, CJASN; Clinical Kidney Journal, cost of haemodialysis in India; Pradhan Mantri National Dialysis Programme estimates. Figures indicate national burden, not Diagnex volumes.

The argument · why not alone

A doctor cannot
build this alone

Delivering clinical care at a patient's home is not a scheduling problem. It requires infrastructure that no individual practice can carry:

  • Trained dialysis technicians and nursing staff, with competency reassessment
  • Machines, water treatment, maintenance and consumables supply
  • Scheduling, logistics and patient coordination
  • Bedside diagnostics and sample processing
  • Pharmacy and medicine delivery
  • Records, billing, statutory compliance and waste handling

What the integration
gives you

The operational payoff is specific. On this platform:

  • A prescription written at home is executed at home
  • A blood test ordered is collected at home and processed in the group's own laboratories
  • A medicine prescribed is delivered to the same address
  • A referral to another speciality stays inside one panel
  • All of it returns to you as one record, not four disconnected ones

Lakhotia Medical Centre was founded in 1995 to give referring physicians diagnostic confidence. This is the same obligation, extended to the patient's home.

The ecosystem · one connected system

Everything the patient needs.
One clinical record.

Each of these already operates. The doctor sits at the centre — not at the end of a referral chain.

Flagship programme · nephrology
Diagnex Nephrocare does not practise nephrology. It carries your prescription to the patient's bedside — and brings the record back to you.

Every session runs on a named consultant's prescription. Every parameter is logged. Every deviation comes back to you. The patient does not transfer out of your care — they stay in it, at an address you could not otherwise reach.

Home haemodialysis — what is recorded Every session · returned within 24 hours
Pre-session
Weight, blood pressure supine and standing, pulse, temperature, access site inspection, target ultrafiltration, prescribed dialysate
Intra-session
Blood pressure and pulse at fixed intervals, blood flow rate, transmembrane pressure, venous pressure, ultrafiltration achieved, conductivity, any symptomatic event
Post-session
Post weight, blood pressure, actual ultrafiltration, access haemostasis time, complications, technician sign-off
Monthly trend
Interdialytic weight gain, intradialytic hypotension frequency, access performance trend, session adherence

Patient selection is your decision

We do not enrol patients into home haemodialysis. We assess feasibility of the home environment, water point, electrical load, access and attendant support, and return that assessment to you. Suitability, modality and prescription remain entirely with the treating nephrologist.

Dialysis on Wheels

A self-contained mobile haemodialysis unit — machine, water treatment, power and clinical team in one vehicle. Pilot completed. Rollout is underway in Kolkata and Mumbai, followed by partnership-based expansion.

Engagement · eight formats

You choose the shape
of the commitment

Empanelment is not a job and not an exclusivity arrangement. Most of our consultants hold full hospital and private practices.

Format 01

Online consultation

Scheduled teleconsultation on Diagnex Core, in slots you set.

Format 02

Clinic OPD sessions

In-person sessions at a Diagnex superspeciality clinic.

Format 03

Home consultation visits

Attending patients at home, scheduled and coordinated by us.

Format 04

Home dialysis supervision

Clinical oversight of a defined home haemodialysis cohort.

Format 05

Continuing care for your own patients

Your patients receive Diagnex home care under your prescription.

Format 06

Second opinion & case review

Structured review of cases referred into the panel.

Format 07

Clinical advisory

Protocol design, quality review, training curriculum, incident review.

Format 08

Academic engagement

CME sessions, clinical talks, clinical staff training.

Diagnex Core · the consultation platform

The administrative load
is ours, not yours

Scheduling, patient coordination, records, billing and compliance sit with Diagnex. What reaches you is the clinical decision.

Status: Diagnex Core is in development and goes live in September 2026 at doctors.diagnexhealth.com. Empanelment is open now — credential verification and agreements take several weeks, and we would rather do that work before launch than after.

What you will seeDiagnex Core
Schedule
Your availability by mode — online, clinic, home visit
Queue
Upcoming consultations with patient context beforehand
Record
History, investigations, and for renal patients the full session and trend data
Orders
Prescriptions to the Diagnex pharmacy; diagnostics executed at the patient's home
Referrals
Routing to another panel speciality, including the vascular access pathway

Teleconsultation on Diagnex Core is delivered only by registered medical practitioners and held to the same professional standards as in-person care, in line with the Telemedicine Practice Guidelines, 2020. Patient identity verification, informed consent and record maintenance are captured on the platform. Personal data is processed under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023.

Standards

We would rather you interrogated our protocol than took our word for it

Panel consultants may inspect the water testing log, machine service history, technician certification file and incident register at any time, on request.

Next step

Speak to us before
you commit to anything.

Empanelment begins with a conversation and a site visit — not with paperwork. A member of the empanelment desk will contact you within 3 working days.
