About Sreedhareeyam Ayurvedic Eye Clinic & Panchakarma Centre Pvt. Ltd.

Sreedhareeyam has successfully leveraged three centuries of traditional Ayurvedic wisdom inherited from Nelliakkattu Mana, an illustrious Namboothiri family known for Ayurvedic Netra Chikilsa. The vaidyans (physicians) of the mana were renowned for expertize in Ayurveda in general and especially poison remedies from more than 4 centuries ago. Over generations, the members of the mana began to place more focus on Shalakya Tantra (branch of Ayurveda which deals with ailments to the organs of the head and neck) and explored the depths of Ayurveda to unearth the treasures in ayurvedic eyecare. As modern technological advancements began to take shape with the evolvement of allopathic methods, the physicians of the mana explored options to take professional training and also find ways to get introduced to the technology revolution. Thus they excelled in the modern diagnostic methods and modern disease descriptions, bringing the best of both worlds together for the benefit of ophthalmology as a science.

The present senior Members of Nelliakkattu Mana- Sri N.P Narayanan Namboothiri (Chairman Sreedhareeyam Group) and Dr. N.P.P Namboothiri (Chief Physician & Managing Director Sreedhareeyam Group) from childhood had attained and mastered the essence of Ayurveda and Ayurvedic Ophthalmology from their father Parameshwaran Vaidyan and uncle Trivikraman Vaidyan. Dr.N.P.P.Namboothiri also underwent professional training at Government Ayurvedic College, Tripunithura. Later under the guidance of his Guru and uncle Trivikraman Namboothiri, he became exceptionally skilled in traditional Ayurveda.
