Her Journey, Vision and Mission
Growing up, Dr Asha always wanted to be a doctor and serve society, and hers is a story of hard work, overcoming stiff challenges and impediments. She has demonstrated a razor-sharp focus on what she wants to achieve and usually aligns it with the greater good.
She knew that people with reproductive disorders were clueless about whom to approach and how to decide about the treatment they have to adopt, how to manage the costs etc. She also noticed that in many cases, the causes of infertility often went undiagnosed, and in most cases, the couples did not get the right treatment at the right time. Even if they did get it, the treatment would be highly expensive with low success rates and barely within the reach of a middle-class family. It was then that Dr Asha, along with a team of first-generation entrepreneurs, decided to approach the problem holistically – to provide world-class treatment and services at affordable costs.
Thus, GarbhaGudi IVF was born!
