Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital and Medical Research Institute..

 A dream which has come true

 

Dr Nitu Mandake, a noted cardiac surgeon had a dream; the dream of a hospital which would be the best in its category. He had initially envisaged the project as a heartcare centre

 He left his body in 2003 before his dream could come true; but with God’s grace today in 2009 there are some people who have completed what Dr Nitu Mandke started years ago.

Kokilaben , wife of the well known industrialist Dhirubhai Ambani and Anil Ambani his son; fulfilled this desire and completed Dr Nitu Mandke’s dream hospital.

The inauguration happened on the 26^th January 2009, with the name ‘The Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital and Medical Research Institute, located in Andheri.

Today when I read about the inauguration I went back in time to our first meeting.

I had initially met Dr Nitu in 1991 at a conference on Medico Astrology at the famous SP College in Pune.

I found him to be a person very interested in and with a strong belief in the subject of Astrology. He also wished to work for the upliftment of Astrology as a perfect science.

  I had very good relations with him and there was mutual respect.

Though no longer alive to rejoice his fulfilled dream, I remember him and wish to honor him here on my blog today for his good works.
