It was 19 months ago when I was diagnosed with ILD, and a thought occurred to me
that all roads are closed. But I was wrong…at this point, always a new opening
appears. In my case thanks to my chest physician who guided me through difficult
times and referred me to PPRC. Here I was surrounded by trained staff humanitarian
treatment family care. At PPRC, they adopt, and design new programmes all aimed
at healthy lifestyle of ILD sufferers. this family is like a guiding light pole in sea. I
have improved to such an extent now I can work twelve hours a day with lesser
exertion. Long live PPRC and its dedicated, well-trained staff.

My gratitude to the founders, for this pulmonary rehabilitation centre. I visited this
centre on recommendation from my pulmonologist to strengthen my lungs. I was
reluctant to go but on persuasion from my husband decided to go. I honestly feel
glad that today I am a member of this group. Every therapist who trains us here are
so patient and caring. When I joined, I was carefully explained very well the concept
of pulmonary rehabilitation, my treatment plan and what could be my possible
improvement upon successful completion. My treating therapist stood by me and
encouraged me at every step politely guiding and bought out changes in me. The
other members of this team are also very caring. The place is very well maintained,
and an uplifting feeling enters you as you walk in. I would recommend everyone who
needs lung care to be a part of this. Last but not the least, I should not forget to
mention Ushasham Yoga Centre where in they conduct yoga in a gentle and loving
manner. They teach yoga with their profound knowledge in very simple ways. A big
thank you to all of you at PPRC!
