Hyderabad-based kidney care and dialysis clinics start-up Nephroplus, backed by funding from Bessemer Venture Partners, is looking at partnering small and mid-sized hospitals to set up 70 kidney dialysis centres and clinics.

“As part our proposed plan to set up 100 centres across the country over the next three years, we are looking for partnerships with 100-300-bedded small and mid-sized hospitals to create around 70 clinics. The remaining 30 centres will be opened by the company,” said Vikram Vuppala, founder and chief executive of Nephroplus.

Each clinic costs between Rs 80 lakh and Rs 2 crore, with a capacity to treat 70-80 patients at a time. Currently, Nephroplus has 10 clinics across south India.

The company also has plans to set up 40 centres in north India. “Expanding into northern regions is our current priority. To start with, we will be setting up clinics in Kanpur next week,” he said.

Nephroplus has joined hands with Brian JG Pereira, who served as the president of the National Kidney Foundation, and currently an adjunct professor of medicine at Tufts University School of Medicine. Pereira has joined the board as a director.
