About the Padhar Hospital

 

Padhar Hospital is an multispecialty, charitable, rural hospital belonging to the Evangelical Lutheran Church in the central highlands of India. Located at the southern border of Madhya Pradesh midway between Nagpur and Bhopal, our patients also come from the surrounding states like Chhattisgarh and Orissa.

 

Founded by Dr. Clement F. Moss as a clinic, nurtured into a large multi-specialty unit by Dr. Victor Choudhrie, it was modernized under the guidance of Dr. Vincent Solomon and is now under the able leadership of Dr. Rajiv Choudhrie, our current medical superintendent.  

​

Apart from the state of the art medical services available at  Padhar Hospital, we engage in a host of community outreach activities targeting the surrounding tribal villages like schools, environment and nutritional enhancement programs, maternal and child health programs, and various community-based clinical outreach programs covering areas as diverse as mental health and cancer screening.
