Dr.M.V.L.Kothari Chair of Medical Humanities

It has been a common experience that medical practice is all science and technology and humane perspective is completely missing. This has led to lot of dissatisfaction, distrust and yarning for benevolent humane doctor to give a sense of “all is well”. Unfortunately, the medical curricula do not cover art of medical practice. We had amongst us a living role model Dr.Manu V.L.Kothari, who showed path by his thoughts, words and actions – who is a good doctor?
On passing away of Dr.Manu Kothari on 16th October 2014, members from medical fraternity felt that we need to have humanity in medical sciences. They desired to institute a Chair of Medical Philosophy in the name of Dr.Manu V.L.Kothari as best way to nurture Sir’s philosophy of life. Dr.Manu Kothari has left behind countless students who will treasure his thoughts and behaviour on medical humanity and their experiences forever and the memory of being in his association. “Dr.Manu V.L.Kothari Chair of Medical Humanities"
