Every sickle-shaped cell tells a larger story.

In Sickle Cell Disease, red blood cells lose their normal round shape and become rigid and sickle-shaped, making it harder for blood to flow freely through the body. This can reduce oxygen supply to tissues and organs, leading to pain, fatigue and other serious health complications.

Because SCD is an inherited condition, carrier screening, genetic counselling and early diagnosis play an important role in understanding risk and improving outcomes.

At S.L. Raheja Hospital (A Fortis Associate), our specialists provide expert diagnosis, advanced treatment and comprehensive care for individuals living with Sickle Cell Disease.
