Our inspiration

A medical college for Tirupati

For centuries, the shrine of Lord Venkateswara (Balaji) at Tirumala in Andhra Pradesh has been an important place of pilgrimage, and people from all over the world come to seek the Lord's blessings.

In the late 1950s, this town had meagre access to modern medical facilities. Sri Venkateswara Medical College, Tirupati was established in 1960 to change that, and has since grown into one of the leading government medical colleges of Andhra Pradesh.
