About Me
Born & brought up in Tuticorin, a semi urban city on the southern coast of India by ambitious parents who gave the Best education to their son to see him as an Effective & Efficient Doctor for the Pearl City. I have fulfilled my parents wish by being a Gold medalist in MD (Medicine) and by my professional services over 45 years at Tuticorin as a Senior Physician with special expertise in cardiology & Intensive care. Started my practice with a 5 Bedded hospital in the name of my affectionate father Late Sri.M.Sundaram Nadar. The public in and around Tuticorin District patronized me fully and depending upon the need, I was able to add-on high Tech Medical Diagnostic and Treatment facilities at the hospital & made Tuticorin as a Mecca of Healthcare for the people of Southern Districts of Tamilnadu.
