Our Mission

Aashra Charitable Medical Foundation is committed to providing sustainable, compassionate, and low-cost kidney care solutions to underserved communities. Through innovative dialysis centers, holistic patient support, and strategic partnerships, we aim to alleviate the burden of chronic kidney disease, empower patients with hope and dignity, and foster equitable healthcare access for all.

Our Vision

To create an ecosystem where quality kidney care is accessible to all, regardless of economic or social barriers, ensuring no life is lost due to lack of affordable treatment.

Our Story

Established in 2021, Aashra Charitable Medical Foundation emerged from a profound recognition of the healthcare disparities faced by underserved communities battling kidney disease. Our founder, Dr. Shambhoo Sharan Singh, an AIIMS alumnus with a fellowship in nephrology from Kings County Hospital, New York(USA) identified the critical need to make dialysis services accessible to all, regardless of economic status.

After gaining extensive experience at Indraprastha Apollo Hospital, Delhi, Dr. Singh recognized that nephrology and dialysis services needed to reach the masses, particularly those with low socio-economic status. This vision led to the establishment of the CGHS Apollo Dialysis Centre, the first standalone dialysis center in North India operating outside a tertiary care hospital.

Innovative Approach to Healthcare
What began as a single dialysis center in a Gurudwara has now expanded to multiple locations, each serving as a beacon of hope for those who would otherwise be unable to afford life-saving treatment. Our innovative approach of establishing dialysis centers within community spaces like Gurudwaras has significantly reduced overhead costs, allowing us to provide high-quality care at a fraction of the market price.

Today, Aashra Charitable Medical Foundation operates multiple dialysis centers within an 8 km radius of AIIMS, ensuring quick and easy access for patients. Our centers operate daily from 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM, providing consistent and reliable care to those in need.

We are a team of dedicated doctors, nephrologists, vascular surgeons, and physicians working together under the banner of Aashra Charitable Medical Foundation to alleviate the burden on dialysis-dependent patients and their Families.
