A mission of compassion born out of loss
Their beloved daughter’s life and dream of serving the community with compassion as a medical doctor were tragically cut short when a patient fatally stabbed her. More than a year after Vandana Das, a house surgeon at Kottarakara government taluk hospital, was killed, her parents — K.G. Mohandas and T. Vasanthakumari — have set up a medical clinic at Thrikkunnappuzha in Alappuzha as a tribute to her. Driven by a desire to keep her aspirations alive and continue her mission of helping others, the family built Dr. Vandana Das Memorial Clinic with the primary goal of serving the poor in this relatively backward coastal region.
