About

Dr. K. Hari Prasad

Born into a medical family (father is a doctor who has been operating a 150 bedded hospital for the last 40 years) a graduate degree in medicine was a natural outcome. Having graduated the search for specialization began and the pull was towards the glamour specialties like orthopedics and cardiac surgery. However not wanting to get restricted to one specialty and wanting to contribute over a larger area, Anesthesiology became the specialty of choice. Having specialized in anesthesiology, Dr. Prasad worked in at the family hospital for 4 years before embarking on a journey to contribute to the establishment of emergency medicine as a specialty India.

At that point of time there was no concept of emergency medicine in the country and few believed in the benefits of the new specialty. It was at this point of time that Dr.Prathap C Reddy, Chairman, Apollo Hospitals, the pioneer of modern day healthcare in India decided to launch the specialty across the Apollo Group of Hospitals. Dr.Prasad joined the Apollo Group of Hospitals and contributed to the launch of the first ever dedicated accident & emergency hospital in the country at Hyderabad. While large investments were made into the infrastructure, the challenge was personnel to operate the system.
