ABOUT TULIP
‘Tulip’…. A soft spring flower that is beautiful; that stands proud yet bows in modesty to nature; a graceful bloom with pleasant streaks of color; strong & signified; a cosy cocoon….almost like a Woman.

Mission Statement
The journey of a woman’s life from the Womb to the Tomb must be enjoyable, healthy, well informed and of the finest quality. We strive to be a part of that beautiful journey in every way we can. We want to only enrich every life that we come in touch with.
Tulip aims at complete, quality healthcare benchmarked with the most current concepts worldwide, with personalized attention, at affordable rates, for all women under one roof.
Why Tulip stands apart
The teamwork approach consists of 2 full time Gynaecologist Obstetricians who work as one. All patients interact with both doctors and are equally comfortable with them. The staff and administrator focus more on comfort and support and provide a family atmosphere to women. The hospital does not have the feel of a medical establishment and yet is fully equipped with technology and upgraded regularly to world standards.
At Tulip we believe in individualised personal attention for women.
Care is taken to involve women and their relatives in all aspects of planning and decision making at every level of their Ante natal course and other treatment plans.
The maximum focus is on Information – Correct and Scientific Information in simple understandable language.
Water in Labour and Delivery
Tulip is the first institution to offer ‘ The use of Water in Labour and Delivery ’ or Waterbirth ( Hydrobirth / Hydrolabour ) in Mumbai and one of the first in India.
In October 2003, Tulip’s Dr. Rajeev V Punjabi & Dr. Sheetal J Sabharwal together delivered Mumbai’s and possibly India’s first reported and documented Water Baby.
Shantai Neelesh Prabhudesai’s son Mstr. Nishant is a healthy 6 yr old boy today.
As of November 2009, we are the Only Centre continuously doing Waterbirth ( Underwater Deliveries ) in Mumbai. We have used water for more than 125 women in labour and delivered about 50 of them in water pools at Tulip successfully and with no complications.
