The Holistic View of Patient CareDr Upendra Acharya has over five decades of clinical experience and four decades in hospital administration. He is currently the Hon. Consultant in Dermatology and Wellness at Sri Sathya Sai General Hospital, now located on the premises of the Sri Sathya Sai Institute of Higher Medical Sciences, Whitefield, Bengaluru. He is also a visiting Consultant at The Dubai Herbal and Treatment Centre, which is an integrative centre set up in 2003, and he also served there as its Medical Director until 2010. In addition to Integrative Dermatology, Dr Acharya also practices Energy Medicine, involving advanced Tachyon Technologies. He is also currently exploring Phyto Stem Cells Therapy and Epigenetics to determine the root cause of diseases at the cellular level. While medical education and experience made him a good doctor, he feels it was only Swami who made him a ‘God Doctor’ by first instilling in him the seed of faith in the Supreme Power and then guiding him to integrate spirituality and practices of ancient Indian culture and wisdom into modern medicine. One message of Bhagawan always rings in his ears: “I am happy if My patients are happy”. This is what drives him to stretch himself even at this advanced age to alleviate the pain of the distressed.
