From a humble beginning to becoming one of the most prominent cardiac care hospitals in Wayanad, it’s definitely a story worth sharing. This joint venture by Leo hospitals and Metro International Cardiac Center is a dream come true of a great physician who knew the pulse of Wayanad very well. Dr Muhamed Shaloob, an eminent cardiologist, realized that Wayanad badly needed a hospital that could tackle any emergency related to cardiac care. This dedication and commitment to provide international heart care for the people of Wayanad successfully culminated in the fabrication of Leometro, the first fully equipped heart hospital in the district offering specialized medical care to thousands of people every year. An internationally acclaimed medical team along with the most advanced facilities like a fully equipped operation suit and cath lab helps us to deliver comprehensive care to the people here.
Leometro promises to strive hard to enhance the lives of the people we serve, by providing them with the best quality medical services and also to be acknowledged as being the most trusted and reliable cardiac care center in the country.
We are committed to creating a healthy community by providing international cardiac care at an affordable rate to all irrespective of cast, creed or color.
We preach and perform all duties based on the following core values. Innovation

I am really proud to state that Leo metro Cardiaac centre ,established 8 years back as a joined venture of Leo hospital Kalpetta and Metro Med International Cardiaac centre Calicut.
It was started when there was no cardiac Cathlab available in this District Wayanad ,till then the people of Wayanad have to approach either Calicut or Kannur for all cardiac emergencies.
Wayanad is the border district of Tamilnadu and Karnataka is a hill station,3000 feet above the sea level ,a major tourist centre ,marked one of the 50 must visit spot in the world .The Nature has gifted this land with 3 beautiful ghat sections through which all the transport is taking place to the plains and to Bangalore and Ootty which is 280 km and 100 km respectively. Apart from the man made Tea and coffee gardens the natural lush green deciduous forests ,thick vegetations ,bushes,waterfalls,lakes , dams ,mountains, streams ,brooks,rivulets altogether give allurement to the visitors.
The population is 8 lakh out of which one and half lakh are Adivasis .The district represent people from all districts of kerala and all the states in south India ,means all are migrants except Adivasis ,in short the Wayanad gives a cosmopolitan outlook .
Apart from Cardiology consultations Leo metro services extend to ECG ,TMT,2 D ECHO,holter monitoring ,pace maker ,Heart failure management,primary angioplasty ,elective angioplasty etc .
The service of 2 cardiologists available day and night and yet other cardiologist from Metro Med Calicut available on Wednesdays .Another two cardiologists who are specialised in repairing congenital heart diseases visit from Metromed Calicut on 1st and 3rd Saturdays .More over the services of all specialties from Leo hospital which was established 40 years back ,available always .
In brief Leometro Cardiac centre has become the pioneer Institution to look after the Cardiac emergency needs of the people .
