Dr. Praful Barvalia received TIMES HEALTHCARE ACHIEVERS AWARD 2018 with citation “Legend in Homoeopathy” From Prestigious Times Of India Group.
Since the dawn of humankind, well being has been of utmost priority. Through time with the development of civilization, man sought various ways to take care of himself and those around him. Shamans prayed to the gods, while alchemists conducted experiments in the search of the elixir of life. Even Indian mythologies are filled with anecdotes about everlasting youth and vitality.
In these modern times, the pace at which medical science is progressing shows that we still consider well being as a priority. If not medical science, even economic theories have propounded the same.
Caregivers have been revered and often placed on a high pedestal owing to their ability and skill to heal us both mentally and physically. How often do we come across medical practitioners and institutions, who are luminous examples of greatness? Greatness achieved through patience, perseverance, persistence, and perspective.
