Alva's Education Foundation

Dr. M Mohan Alva set up an Ayurvedic clinic in Moodubidire in 1980 to cater to the basic health needs of the people of his village. The clinic responded to the then prevalent main health issue like snake bite. He started Alva’s Pharmacy in 1982 to produce the necessary medicines. The clinic was upgraded from time to time responding to the need of the hour and Alva’s Health Center, a full-fledged multi speciality hospital came into existence in 1986. After finding the solutions for the health needs, Dr. Alva diverted his attention to the idea of serving the society. He realized the need for creating job opportunities for the rural youth. He started the Paramedical courses to support the health needs and to help the youth to find jobs very easily. Alva’s Education Foundation came into existence in 1995 with Alva’s Institute of Nursing and Physiotherapy. Nursing College and Ayurvedic Medical Colleges were added in 1996.
