The Journey of Balaji Ayurveda Hospital
History
I started my journey in Ayurveda inspired by my ancestors. I was born in the dynasty of Pandit Deevi Goplachacharylu and am the grandson of Dr. Deevi Lakshmanacharylu. When I entered Venkata Ramana Ayurveda College (Chennai) for the first time in 1989, I felt like I entered a vintage college that was established 125 years ago. Later, I established my own dream hospital in 1998 with the aim to provide low cost and effective treatment to patients from challenged socioeconomic backgrounds.
I have had success with thousands of medical and surgical cases. My key areas of expertise are panchakarmas and anorectal surgeries. My major challenges have been use of innovative techniques in treating different kinds of fistula.
