Dr. S. R. Rao states that “Medical practice has come a long way and is today sometimes felt to be impersonal and machine oriented. We at Rao Hospital have striven to deliver both personalized care along with modern technology. Rather than giving ad hoc treatment we firmly believe in evidence based medicine.
We have today strengthened our core efficiencies i.e. ART, Gynaec Laparoscopic Surgeries, General Gynecology and Obstetrics along with Neonatology and Paediatrics. We feel it is preferable not to dilute our services to encompass areas outside our expertise.
Our CARE team has been together for more than a quarter of a Century and each knows others thought processes thus leading to smooth recovery of the patient.”
