SATYAM means truth, honesty & upholding of ethical values .We, at Satyam, try to adhere to these principles while discharging our duties. The philosophy behind the creation of Satyam is embodied in the Sanskrit shloka “IDAM NA MUM”, which means” “it all belongs to the Almighty”, It is His idea implanted in us, His creation & his blessings to us & to the people around us. MERA MUJH MEIN KUCHH NAHIN, JO KUCHH HAI SO TERA . The whole SATYAM family gets together each morning at 8’oclock for thanking him & to offer special prayers for the critically ill patients in the hospital.

It was then that Dr. Rajesh Pasricha & Dr. Kumud Pasricha , who were till then working in Mumbai, felt the need to establish a state of the art Neurosurgical & Trauma Centre in this part of the country to provide immediate aid to Head injury & polytrauma patients when element of time becomes a crucial factor & save them from the agony of rushing to far off cities.
