VAIDYAN M GANGADHARAN NAIR
Chief Physician
Having been in the service of Ayurveda for the last six decades and proved to be a living Legend following the footsteps of his Revered Guru (Teacher) Late Sri Chatharu Nair, a Traditional Ayurveda Vaidyan with special emphasize on Child health who was then, at the time of his living (1874-1967), adorned with the vernacular maxim, “Daivam paati, Chathru Nair paati” (Half God will contribute and Half Chatharu Nair), whenever a child was ailing. Such was his knowledge in child health
Sri Gangadharan Nair underwent years of Gurukula teaching under his Guru and the deep relation as disciple turned out to become family relation, as good luck would have it, as Sri Chathru Nair’s great grand daughter came to the life of Gangadharan Nair as his better half.
Ever since he took the reign of serving the ailing community he established an Ayurveda medicine manufacturing unit in a thatched hut, with a humble beginning, which became a modern Ayurveda medicine manufacturing unit by 2002 and gained Good Manufacturing Certificate under the Drugs Controlling Act and also got enlisted in the Approved list of Pharmacies by Ministry of Health and Family Planning, Govt. of India under CS (MA) Rules.
Sri Gangadharan Nair gained unlimited knowledge from his Guru in the eight branches of Ayurveda and mastery over Sanskrit, and above all Balachikitsa (Ayurveda pediatrics).
He started his career serving the ailing from the age of 16 and continues to be in mitigating the pain of the ailing, particularly many a children’s problems, thereby bringing back the smiles in the face of their parents. In short, Vaidyan Gangadharan does not need any introduction as he has already been in the fourth estate as well as News Medias.

He is the son of Vaidyan Gangadharan Nair. Following the foot steps of his Father it was his idea to establish a hospital – till September, 2003 the hospital was functioning with a limited facility of five rooms in a rented building. At this juncture, Dr. Manikandan, who was assisting his Father in the medicine manufacturing unit as well as in consultation and treatment, ever since his graduation in 1996, decided to venture on establishing a full-fledged hospital, the success of which has gained ISO Certification (2005) as World’s First Ayurveda Pediatric Hospital. Simultaneously he won the National Excellency Award in Child health. He too is an expert in the eight branches of Ayurveda and serving the ailing community particularly giving significance to Children’s health. Dr. Manikandan is also on research to develop various medicines to palatable standard as children always resist taking medicines that taste bitter.
During May-June 2011 June 2011 he was invited by UNESCO as a special guest to participate in a conference on “Ethical implication of Traditional medicines” held at Azerbaijan. The conference was attended by participants from several countries. He did address the gatherings, replied the queries and presented a paper on the subject. Incidently he was the only Ayurveda Physician from India to get this coveted opportunity.
