HOSPITALS  IN TAMIL NADU Chennai or Madras, as it was then known, is one of the earliest British settlements. But one would be surprised to learn that the Asia's first eye hospital was started in 1819        by the British, and it still exists as the Government Eye Hospital at Egmore, Chennai. In Tamil Nadu, like in all the other Indian States, treatment is absolutely free in all the Government Hospitals. Very completed surgeries and also simple OP treatment and are all performed here absolutely free. The Government Doctors here enjoy a very high reputation simply because of the variety of cases they get per day, and huge number of patients they see each day. There are about six or seven major Government Hospitals in the state. Other than this list, there is a General Hospital in all the district capitals of the state. Also, the state is well equipped with Primary Health Centers in all the smaller towns.

After getting treated in Tamil Nadu, do not fail to visit the famous Navagragha Temples which are found in a close cluster around Kumbakonam in South Tamil Nadu. Nowhere in India do you find all the Navagragha Temples in such close proximity from each other, so that it is very easy to visit all the temples in about three days!   Surya  Chandra  Mangal Budha      Guru        Shukra  Shani     Rahu     Ketu
