Dr. C. V. SHANMUGAM – A Profile

Dr. C. V. SHANMUGAM, MBBS, FRCS, FICS (USA) was a well-known reputed surgeon in Coimbatore in the State of Tamil Nadu. He was a great human who had acumen and passion to provide medical care to the people with his intelligence. He had a short life span spending his time mostly with the patients and caring the people who believed him as their savior. He paid his attention to cure the patients by his determined immense efforts and showed them the path of reverence for life. He, as a great SURGEON, did not discriminate the poor and rich, but dedicated his entire life to rescue them from various diseases by providing quality medical care. At the early age in his medical career, he had, on his own, instituted a well equipped hospital about four decades ago and named it as “VEEKU SURGERY”.

By his wisdom and comprehensive knowledge, he registered success after success over a decade of his medical profession with a specialization in General Surgery.  He lived at the cost of countless effort. His methodical, rational and sympathetic approach yielded the confidence on the patients that there was a human who could be relied upon for getting cure of the disease they suffered in and for experiencing a rebirth. His considerate of the surgical patients made a linkage between him and the patients who trusted that he was a human who could be entrusted with the task of treating them.

In recognition of his noble service on humanity and human welfare, the Government of Tamil Nadu had honored him a positions of Honorary Professor of Surgery and Honorary Dean in Coimbatore Medical College. He held the positions with dignity and integrity. His colleagues and beloved students kept him in a very high esteem. He inspired the students by his lectures of high standard, stimulated them to learn and understand the kinds of diseases and induced them to get trained in the methods of clinical diagnosis and effective treatment. His contemporaries who live presently and his students, who are also the surgeons, even now remember him and pay accolade to him. The living patients who got treatments by him and their subsequent generations still recall the noble gesture of the SURGEON.

He was a perfectionist by all means. His shrewd bright and curious eyes spotted the disease and hands gave relief to the grieved. He was capable of producing magical cure. In no time, he developed his surgery to an extent that the medical professionals and public recognized him as one of the best surgeon in Coimbatore. It is still unbelievable that in such a short period of his life, he attained maturity in his judgment on an unequivocal success.

It was unfortunate that he was snatched away by the icy hands of death at the prime of his young age and high reputation. He faced an untimely and premature death. It was very unfortunate that his surgical serving to the poor and needy had to be withdrawn. The Almighty bestowed his wife and children a greater stamina and strength to withstand his unexpected, untimely and sudden death at the young age of life. The Almighty had also given courage and strength to his wife and children to walk through their life of thorns. Nevertheless, his son Dr. C. S. Karthik is here to perpetuate his beloved Fathers’ dreams and memories in a fitting manner.
