About ABHISHU CRITICAL CARE ASSOCIATES

ABHISHU CRITICAL CARE ASSOCIATES is a joint venture of Dr. Anish Joshi and Dr. Vivek Dave and has been functional since 2014. Abhishu was founded in December 2014 with the mission of providing quality critical care at the right time with a fast response time. Just like the 108 ambulance service is known to all, the team consists of qualified intensivists who attend to the patient requiring ICU care within the least possible time from the time the patient gets admitted. Dr. Anish Joshi and Dr. Vivek Dave are the founders of this group and have a dedicated team to attend to emergencies or assist in the transport of patients in the ICU on wheels. The team is also an active organizer of various academic programs in the field of critical care and was active in executing state-level Gujarat curriculum in 2013 and 2018 in Ahmedabad. Both of them are active members of the Indian Society of Critical Care Medicine, Ahmedabad Branch. Both of them have been felicitated with bright young talent in the field of critical care. The team has done several CMEs with different medical associations within and outside Ahmedabad and arranged critical care tutorials twice a year for the upliftment of the medical officers and ICU registrars.

CRITICAL CARE is the field that has gained significant importance post-COVID pandemic and is a superspeciality recognized by the Medical Council of India. In Ahmedabad, the treatment of ICU patients has also improved due to the availability of highly qualified intensivists. A qualified and trained intensivist has a degree in FNB (critical care) given by a reputed institute like DNB (Diplomat in National Board), IDCC (Indian Diploma in Critical Care) given by the Indian Society of Critical Care, or EDIC (European Diploma in Critical Care) given by the European Society of Critical Care.
