Quick Answer
AIIMS Rishikesh (Virbhadra Road) is about 50–55 km from Dehradun — 90 minutes to 2 hours by taxi. Galaxy Hills runs 24x7 hospital transfers with patient-friendly driving, waiting during OPD or admission hours, and a fixed return fare so attendants never negotiate at discharge time.
What Makes a Good Hospital Cab
- Soft driving: no hard braking or sharp turns; drivers briefed for post-surgery and elderly patients.
- Door-to-door: pickup at home, drop at the emergency or OPD gate — not the main road.
- Waiting included: the cab waits on hospital premises during short procedures; long admissions get a discounted return slot.
- Night readiness: discharge at 2 am is as bookable as a 9 am OPD run.
Booking for Recurring Visits
Dialysis, chemo and physio cycles get the same driver and time slot each week on a [local taxi](/service-local-taxi.html) package — familiarity matters for patients and families. One-off transfers book on [WhatsApp](/contact.html) in one message.
Fares
AIIMS runs price like any Dehradun–Rishikesh transfer on the [route fare table](/route/dehradun-to-rishikesh-taxi) — sedan for two to three people, Ertiga or Crysta when a stretcher-adjacent seat or extra attendants are needed.
