K N Rao Hospital - Salem

Salem Polyclinic initially commenced as a surgical nursing home under the stewardship of Dr K.N Rao in 1962. In appreciation of his service, the general public fondly starting calling this hospital “ K.N Rao hospital”. A year after the hospital was started, the Obstetrics and Gynaecology department was established by his wife Dr Padma Rao.

Over the years, the doctor couple provided compassionate and affordable health care services to all patients in need and the hospital began to grow and flourish under their care.

We, at Salem Polyclinic, believe that growing and keeping pace with times is the most important path correction for any forward moving institution of repute and hence, over the years, we have grown to become a multi speciality tertiary care hospital of repute ably
