Ramakrishna Math, Pune is a spiritual as well as a social service institution. Extending selfless service to the poor and needy people is one of our prime objectives. With this spirit of service, Ramakrishna Math, Pune had started a Medical Unit right at the year of its inception i.e., in 1984, with a small Homoeopathic wing. Since1994, it has developed itself into a full fledged diagnostic centre having in addition to its homoeopathic wing, various allopathic departments. The medical unit is having up-to-date machinery, apparatus and appliances operated by trained staff. It is attended and supervised by renowned experts, specialists and medical professionals in the city.

The Math charges a nominal fee, for medical examination and treatment. The needy patient are treated free of cost. Every year Medical Camps are organised by the polyclinic. Every patient visiting the polyclinic is treated equally, without any discrimination of caste, creed or religion.
