WHAT PEOPLE SAY
Twenty six years ago Dr. Natteri Chandran founded the East West Foundation of India. The foundation started with the Uluru Health Clinic, now seeing approximately 150 patients weekly. Then the Uluru Children’s home came into existence in 2003 for orphaned and/or destitute children who are fed, schooled and protected. The work of the foundation and all that are involved is a testimonial to the leadership of Dr. Chandran.
