The firm, one of the fastest growing diagnostic companies in India, with presence in USA, UAE and South Africa, will expand by establishing centres in eastern Africa, western Africa, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bangladesh, and Germany, Chairman of Neuberg Diagnostics and Managing Director of Trivitron Healthcare Group G S K Velu said.

The company also virtually opened labs in Ooty, Erode and one inside the Women's Centre by Motherhood Hospitals and will soon open labs in Pollachi and Valparai in the district and 10 other locations.

The new lab, inaugurated by Coimbatore Mayor A Kalpana, is equipped to conduct and process a wide variety of tests.

Neuberg Diagnostics brings capabilities to perform over 6,000 varieties of pathological investigations and promotes prevention and early diagnosis, focused wellness programmes and structured disease management programmes for rare diseases using the most advanced technologies assisted by data science and AI tools, Velu pointed out.
