to the common man.
Under W.T.T. auspices, a hundred homoeo dispensaries have
been established so far in Andhra Pradesh and on an average 50,000 people
receive treatment every month. These centres of service are mostly
self-supporting and do not look for any financial help from Government or
private sources, though assistance and appreciation have always been received
both from society and the Government.
Homoeo classes are conducted from time
to time and a cadre of selfless, dedicated voluntary doctors is built up, who
are engaged in extending medical help even to remote rural areas.

of Healing“ and „The Science of Homoeopathy“, authored by Dr. Ekkirala Krishnamacharya, and his disciples too have
