Detailed Information

Charutar Arogya Mandal is a registered Charitable Trust & Society. As a leading NGO in rural health-care in the state, the Mandal manages a Medical College, an NABH accredited teaching Hospital with exclusive Cancer & Cardiac Centres, as well as Nursing, Physiotherapry and other medical institutions on its campus in Karamsad, Gujarat, the birthplace of Sardar Patel.

The 850 bed Shree Krishna Hospital managed by the Mandal located as it is in a rural area and with its mission of treating all patients who come seeking help, who are largely from the villages around, runs with a service motive. As a matter of policy, we ensure that not a single patient is turned away due to inability to afford treatment.Quality health-care is provided uniformly to all patients at affordable rates. Apart from conducting adult surgeries and cath procedures, the Cardiac Centre receives paediatric patients suffering from congenital heart diseases from not only Gujarat but also from States like Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan. These patients largely belong to the under-privileged section of society. The Cancer Centre equipped with 2 Linear Accelerators for radiotherapy is among the leading Cancer Centres in the state. It receives a large number of complicated Cancer cases involving the less privileged sections of the society. While the Mandal runs its own Schemes to benefit the poor and indigent patients, as also implements the health-care schemes of the State and Central Govt. The annual burden on account of such support provided to needy patients works out annually to about Rs 26 crores.

The Mandal, now has reaches out to over 5,00,000 out patients and 47,000 every year in- patients in various ways to fulfill its mission of providing 'solace to the suffering'. We do not charge for registration or outdoor consultations. We do not require indoor patients to pay for anything except medicines and consumables in our 450 free-bed Aashirwad wards.We do not charge for stay or diet in general wards, and we do not turn away a singleunaffording patient. We even offer Government schemes and our own schemes with substantial discounts in treatment costs to those living below the poverty line, thus incurring an expense over Rs.26 crore annually.

The Mandal would love to help more people in need. It is our mission and our passion, but in order to lend a helping hand, we need a helping hand. Which is why, we seek the support of Individuals and Corporate donors.
