Mahila by Atrimed – the only corporate healthcare chain for women in India – is incepted keeping in mind the welfare of women in our society with an integrated social outreach program for gynaecology, skincare, general diseases and early cancer detection. These clinics are trustworthy primary healthcare centres for women, operated by women healthcare professionals. The clinics provide integrated cutting-edge therapy and prevention with the help of both Ayurveda and Western medicines. All clinics function as an integral part of the community outreach through various health and wellness programs, especially those related to prevention, like early cancer detection in women.
Mahila is envisioned by the founders of Atrimed – Dr. Hrishikesh Damle, Dr. Shiban Ganju and Dr. Latha Damle – considering the plight of women with no attributed healthcare for them.

India got its freedom 72 years back but in this sleepy village in Amethi (UP), women were still living in the dark pre-independence era. They didn’t have access to education and good healthcare services. Infant and mother mortality rate during delivery was very high due to malnutrition and unsafe practices during child-birth. Tuberculosis was also a big contributor in rising death toll.
When Dr. Shibin saw their plight, he was deeply pained and decided to help them out. After giving it a lot of thought, he came up with Save A Mother – a foundation which educates women about self and family healthcare and nutrition, provides them with necessary medication, health check-ups and more. It substantially reduced mother infant mortality rate and deaths due to tuberculosis and brought the light of happiness in the life of villagers. It is a sustainable healthcare system for the poor. Taking this philosophy ahead, SAM has joined hands with Mahila to serve the women countrywide.
