As the bright shining Sun gives its energy and ultimate source of power to our planet, our Sun, Hon’ble Dr. Patangrao Kadam Saheb was one such humble man behind the well-known Bharati Vidyapeeth Health Sciences, which is today, one of the largest and leading organizations in India. He has been the key guiding light behind the Bharati Hospital and Research Center Pune.

Our humble tribute to, Hon’ble Dr. Patangrao Kadam Saheb, a dedicated and dynamic leader with a vision for a better and brighter future. Like a seed which grows into a huge tree and starts branching out its roots, Bharati Vidyapeeth, established in Pune in 1964, has taken tremendous strides during the years, keeping itself grounded with Bharati Vidyapeeth Health Sciences. Dr. Kadam Saheb was deeply involved in the planning, establishment, development and progress of Bharati Vidyapeeth and its sister concerns.

Hon’ble Dr. Patangrao Kadam Saheb came from a middle class farmer family residing in a remote village of Sonsal, in the perennially drought-prone area of Sangli District in Maharashtra. He was the first person from his village to have passed the S.S.C examination. He joined Shivaji College at Satara, run by Rayat Shikshan Sanstha, which was established by a renowned social reformer and educationist, Karmaveer Bhaurao Patil. He was enrolled in the college under its “Earn and Learn Scheme”. It is here that the fine qualities of head and heart, which he is now known for, took root in him.
