My Name mentioned again @ The Hindu!!
The Hindu newspaper has recently published my quote (and my name) in their Health & Wellness supplement. It reads:
‘Rajesh K, a resident of Anna Nagar for the last two decades has early memories of the health amenities in the area. “From an early age, I remember visiting Vishnu Eye Clinic and Senthil Nursing Home in Anna Nagar,” he says. “Nowadays we go to Sundaram Medical Foundation, mostly.” Rajesh also recalls of the time when the Madras Medical Mission Hospital was found. “In our school days, I remember standing on our apartment and watching the car of the then Chief Minister Dr. J. Jayalalitha who had come for both the foundation stone laying ceremony and the opening ceremony of Madras Medical Mission Hospital.”
At a time when healthcare is of utmost significance to the populace, Anna Nagar has done well and put itself on the map. With many well-known and reputed hospitals, and specialty clinics setting up in the area, the locale is fast becoming the epicenter of health amenities in the city. “I would also like to see the development of alternative/natural medicine systems like Siddha, Ayurveda, Homeopathy, Naturopathy in Anna Nagar,” Opines Rajesh. “Anna Nagar was one of the pioneers in alternative medicine with the establishment of the Siddha Central Research Institute in the Arignar Anna Government Hospital campus near Anna Arch. I hope people will have more credible options for alternative health care in the future in this area.”
Wooohooooo 🙂 😀 🙂

Superb Rajesh! The pictures too collected by you i.e from internet? I have been to Sundaram medical once and there’s a separate association for Muscular Dystrophy. And also happen to visit a Siddha clinic opposite to Anna Arch.
Oh cool. I have heard about it but never visited that Siddha clinic. Those pics were collected by The Hindu team, not me!

Congratulations, that was a to-the-point write-up!
Anything about Annanagar excites me. The very soil I was born and raised. Should say Annanagar by itself is a mini chennai. We didn’t have to move for anything outside in those days. And can’t agree more on the medical facility places you’ve mentioned. I hold fond memories of the place.
