Dr. Ajaikumar is one of the few doctorprenuers who have steered clear of government grants all along. His motto is simple but not simplistic. He ensures transparent and ethical operations, with an unflinching focus on doing the right thing for the patient, every single time. At HCG, no patient is denied treatment on economic grounds. Dr. Ajaikumar fervently believes that the cost of healthcare service in India is a fraction of that same service offered in the United States and Singapore – quite a boon for a country where medical insurance isn’t commonplace, and out-of-pocket expenditure is all-pervading. Dr. Ajaikumar has a unique way of blending his philanthropic principles with business priorities. He ensures the capacity utilization of the available equipment essentially through late-night and after-hour treatments and procedures, making the most of technology and finances towards preserving the unique patient-centric character of his organization. All the reserves and surpluses are plowed back into the system to bring in more technology and to upskill doctors. No wonder, Harvard has taken note of his unique business model through an elaborate case study and Forbes has done a special feature on his sterling achievements in cancer care. The biggest validation of Dr. Ajaikumar’s vision, mission and values came during the pandemic times when HCG saw a substantial fund infusion from a marquee long-term investor to help deleverage its balance sheet, fund its aggressive expansion plans, as also achieve prudent consolidation of various businesses.In this time where many are looking for great stories to inspire them, give hope, and outline a path of entrepreneurship that leads to great success, your audience should look no further than this tell-all story! One doctor, with a monumental goal to treat cancer at an affordable cost In India, started with a vision. This vision was gripped onto by investors, and even the US Government, which offered grants through a non-profit trust.
