Dr Sri Ram Mallavarapu

Abstract

The sad demise of Dr. M Sri Ram is a profound grief for whole of the Indian anesthesia community. I was personally connected with him with effect from mid 1960’s when I was a medicine resident at Safdarjang Hospital and Dr. Shriram was pursuing his postgraduation under Dr. G. C. Tendon at All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) New Delhi. Dr. Shriram had the destiny to return to Andhra Pradesh (AP) state and I joined King Edward (VII) Memorial Hospital and Seth Gordhandas Sunderdas Medical College, Mumbai. Thus, the fond memories of more than six decades spent with him overwhelm my feelings.
