The Divakar Story: A Legacy of Excellence
Shaping the Future of Women’s Health Since 1983.
Thirty-seven years ago, Divakars Speciality Hospital was founded on a singular, powerful belief: that every woman deserves access to healthcare that is clinically elite, ethically transparent, and deeply compassionate. What started as a dedicated clinical practice has evolved into a global center of excellence, pioneering new standards in maternity, high-risk pregnancy, and gynecological innovation.
Led by the visionary Dr. Hema Divakar, we have grown from a premier Bangalore hospital into a national beacon for women’s health, touching thousands of lives and shaping the very policies that govern healthcare in India.
Located in Bangalore, we specialise in a broad range of gynaecological and obstetric care, integrating advanced technology with compassionate, patient-centred care. Since 1998, as the state’s first private hospital to earn ISO certification, we have been setting the standard for quality. Our skilled staff offers a wide range of services, including obstetrics and gynaecology surgeries, laparoscopic procedures, and women’s health care. We are also equipped with a 24/7 pharmacy, a hi-tech laboratory, and an emergency room to ensure optimal outcomes for our patients.
Our Mission in Action
To provide world-class, ethical healthcare that empowers every woman, through every stage of life, while championing social change at a national scale.
Empowering the Next Generation of Caregivers
The Asian Research and Training Institute for Skill Transfer (ARTIST) is our frontline for medical innovation. Here, we train thousands of healthcare providers in advanced maternal and gynecological practices to ensure every woman, everywhere, receives elite care.
Serving Humanity with Unwavering Commitment
Through the Service trust, we take high-quality healthcare to the underserved. From our "Screen the Mother, Vaccinate the Daughter" cervical cancer initiative to rural health camps, our mission is to ensure no woman is left behind.

Clinical Excellence (Divakars Hospital)
At the heart of our story is our hospital in JP Nagar, Bangalore. Equipped with Level III NICU support, luxury birthing suites, and advanced laparoscopic towers, we provide a “Home-to-Hospital” experience where medical rigor meets emotional comfort.
The Knowledge Hub (ARTIST for Her)
The Asian Research and Training Institute for Skill Transfer (ARTIST) is our dedicated wing for medical education. We believe that knowledge should be shared. Through ARTIST, Dr. Hema Divakar and her team train thousands of frontline healthcare providers across Asia, ensuring that the “Divakar Standard” of safety reaches the most remote corners of the continent.

Healthcare is a right, not a privilege. The HDR Foundation is our vehicle for social change.
