Heart emergencies leave very little room for delay. A cardiac ambulance from Nurvo Ambulance is prepared for patients with chest pain, a suspected heart attack, rhythm problems or a known heart condition, and it is available across Mumbai at any hour.
The aim is simple: get the patient to a hospital with cardiac facilities as quickly and safely as possible, with the heart's rhythm watched for the whole journey. We also use cardiac ambulances for planned moves, such as shifting a patient to a hospital where an angiography or cardiac surgery is scheduled.
When should you ask for a cardiac ambulance?
A cardiac ambulance is the right choice when the main concern is the heart. Typical calls include:
- Sudden chest pain, pressure or discomfort, especially with sweating or breathlessness
- A known heart patient who feels unwell and needs to reach their cardiologist's hospital
- Transfer to a hospital with a cath lab for angiography or angioplasty
- Moving a patient after a cardiac procedure to another hospital or back home
- Irregular heartbeat or fainting where the doctor wants the rhythm monitored on the way
If someone has sudden chest pain, breathlessness or collapses, call for help immediately. Do not wait to see whether it settles. If you cannot reach us for any reason in a life-threatening emergency, call 108 or 112.

How booking and pricing work
For an emergency, call 9930000788 and tell us the patient's age, symptoms and exact location; we dispatch the nearest suitable vehicle while you are still on the line with us. For a planned cardiac transfer, share the hospital names, the time of the procedure and the patient's latest reports on WhatsApp.
We do not list fixed prices. The charge is based on the type of ambulance and the distance, and we confirm it on the call before the ambulance is sent, so there are no surprises later.

Helpful guides
Cardiac Ambulance: frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a cardiac ambulance and a regular ambulance?
A cardiac ambulance carries ECG monitoring and a defibrillator in addition to oxygen, so the heart's rhythm can be watched and problems responded to on the way. A basic ambulance is meant for stable patients who do not need this monitoring.
Should I call a cardiac ambulance for chest pain?
Chest pain should always be treated as urgent. Call us on 9930000788 straight away; if you cannot reach us in a life-threatening emergency, call 108 or 112. Do not drive the patient yourself if you can avoid it.
Can you take a heart patient to a specific hospital?
Yes. Tell us which hospital the patient's cardiologist works at, and we will take them there. In an emergency, it helps to call the hospital on the way so the team is ready on arrival.
Is the cardiac ambulance available around the clock?
Yes, cardiac ambulances can be booked 24x7 across Mumbai, including late nights and public holidays.
What does a cardiac ambulance cost in Mumbai?
The cost depends on the ambulance type and how far the patient is going. We tell you the exact amount on the phone before dispatch.
