Health industry India

[Michael Southworth,MD,FACS]

I am about to embark on a trip to Vellore to teach in the healthcare field. I am fascinated to study a culture which appears based on my readings to be developing as an industrial country but still faces many cultural barriers when it comes to delivering appropriate services to it's own people. Through my research I see many of the major healthcare delivery companies waiting in the wings as to whether India will be as strong a healthcare consumer as US or Europe. Am excited to see it in action.
