About AAF Hospitals
Part of a group that has spent nearly three decades bringing senior-consultant care, precise allergy immunology and specialised pulmonary diagnostics within reach of everyday families across Kerala.
Your local hospital
Thrissur brings the group's specialist allergy, asthma and pulmonary care to the community it serves — high-precision allergy testing, adult and paediatric respiratory clinics, a day-care immunotherapy pavilion and round-the-clock acute triage. Every visit is backed by one shared clinical record, so your history follows you across every AAF centre.
Our story
Allergy Asthma Foundation began in 1998 with a single 40-bed unit and a simple promise: bring senior-consultant care within reach of the communities we serve. Nearly three decades on, that promise still shapes every decision — from how we design a waiting room to how we price a health check.
Institutional guardians
The clinicians and trustees who opened the doors in 1998 and still set our standards of clinical integrity.
Co-founder
MD, FRCP (London)
Co-founder & Chief Medical Director
Senior clinical leader who established Kerala's first dedicated allergy and chest hospital. With four decades in practice, he laid the diagnostic foundations for regional allergen standardisation and structured asthma action plans.
“Medicine without genuine empathy is only diagnostic calculation. Patients must leave not just treated, but reassured.”
Co-founder
MD (Pulmonology), FCCP
Co-founder & Director of Clinical Research
Pioneered regional aerobiology mapping and modern sublingual immunotherapy protocols across South India. Her research guides the group's paediatric asthma-prevention programmes and pollen-calendar studies.
“Real progress in immunology has to adapt to the local environment and climate of the families we protect.”
Managing Trustee
Healthcare philanthropist & administrator
Managing Trustee & philanthropic co-founder
The administrator behind AAF's charitable endowments, patient-advocacy charters and community outreach — keeping subsidised diagnostics and biologic therapies within reach of underserved rural families.
“Financial hardship should never be the boundary between a breathless child and life-saving care.”
Our purpose & horizon
