what r u proud of?? did u fund them or helped them in any way... u can't just come for a good credit when u don't deserve it....
Will corp hospitals like Apollo and fortis and Wockhardt ever attempt things like this. Even a fraction of the efforst which aravind has put will go a long way in providing basic health care to deprived masses. An eg of what private intitiative can do if the govt does not meddle with it
I would like to congratulate the Aravind Eye Care for getting this prestigious award. I hope the hospital spreads to other parts of the country and provide its medical facility to millions of other poor and the needy patients. I would also like to thank Bill Gates for creating such an award. It is a pity that though people like Mukesh and Anil Ambani are now one of the richest in the world but they never think of contributing towards the society. If only they could realise that the joy of giving is much more than the joy of taking.
Such kind of social work done by some people comes to the knowledge of general public only when they are appreciated by international foundations. Other affluent businessmen from the country must take note.
From a humble beginning in Madurai, the Aravind hospital has grown and has been set up in many places like Coimbatore, Salem,Tiruvarur (which is a interior part of tamilnadu)
And they provide good eye care & service mainly for Cataract surgery (personally my mother underwent an operation recently and they had taken good care for an affordable price)
Also i could see many poor people getting quality treatment...

Hi vinod Okay. it may be in erode, though i am not sure... heard someone in the hospital saying that. But its there in Tiruvarur, which is quite a backward district in tamilnadu.
