The Evolution of Rao Hospital

Rao Hospital – A Legacy of Excellence in Women and Children’s Healthcare

Rao Hospital – A Legacy of Excellence in Women and Children’s Healthcare

Rao Hospital stands as a national leader in comprehensive women and children’s healthcare, recognized for pioneering breakthroughs that have transformed lives. With a legacy of excellence that continues to evolve year after year, we are proud to be at the forefront of advancements in fertility, gynecology, obstetrics, minimal access surgery, neonatology, paediatrics, and general surgery. Generations of satisfied families and a legacy of trust have helped us carve a unique niche in women and children’s healthcare.

Our journey began in 1953, when Major Dr. Sudhakar Rao, son of Dr. Raghavendra Rao—1st Physician of the Royal family of Travencore—founded Rao Hospital in a modest building in R.S. Puram, Coimbatore. Major Dr. Sudhakar Rao, who had served with the Indian Medical Service in Burma during the war, took a bold step in starting his practice in what was then a developing town. His vision laid the foundation for what is today a 100-bedded super-specialty center for women and children along with the Centre for Assisted Reproduction and Endoscopy (CARE).

Throughout our journey, we have achieved numerous milestones, always staying ahead with innovation and patient-focused care. Since 1985, we have helped over 50,000 childless couples achieve their dream of parenthood through advanced
infertility treatments and laparoscopic surgeries.

Rao Hospital is also recognized as a center of excellence in healthcare quality and safety, playing a significant role in shaping industry best practices in Assisted Reproductive Medicine. Beyond patient care, we are a nationally sought-after training institution, empowering the next generation of physicians, allied health professionals, and nurses through structured, high-quality training programs.

Today, with state-of-the-art infrastructure, expert medical teams, and a deeply rooted legacy, Rao Hospital remains committed to delivering personalized, compassionate, and world-class healthcare for every woman and child who walks through our doors.
