Dear members of our Telugu Family,

On behalf of ATMGUSA, I extend my warm wishes to you on the happy occasion of India's Independence Day.

ATMGUSA was founded by our esteemed senior leaders several years ago with the aim of uniting all Telugu physicians in the USA. It gives me a great pride and joy to share with you that our organization now represents over 10,000 Telugu-speaking physicians in the USA.

While many of our individual alumni organizations boast significant numbers, I strongly believe in the necessity of a common platform where alumni from various backgrounds can come together under the auspices of ATMGUSA. Despite facing many recent challenges such as the impact of Covid and other factors, our enthusiastic leaders are determined to revitalize our organization and transform it into an impactful and relevant forum for Telugu-speaking physicians.

The success of the recent grand convention held this year in Nashville, Tennessee, organized by Dr. Sunil Kaza, Dr. Anuradha Mann, Dr. Shashank Ponugoti, and other leaders, marked a significant milestone. The event not only marked a promising beginning but also raised over $25,000 for charity, specifically for EKAM Vidyalaya.

I invite each one of you to join hands in engaging in philanthropic endeavors both locally and in India. Your unwavering support is crucial for our collective efforts.

I am delighted to announce that starting this year, we aim to appoint all the alumni Presidents and state chapter Presidents as honorary members of the board of directors of our organization. The primary aim of this initiative is to bring everyone together under one common umbrella.

Let us unite, collaborate, and work towards a brighter future for our community.

 FEW GOALS FOR THIS YEAR  

  • Involve all Alumni with ATMGUSA
  • Increase charity work from this year
  • Make ATMGUSA a good Conduit for Telugu medical graduates for observer-ship and residency
  • More community work in the USA and India
  • Engage the next generation of medical students, residents and physicians of Telugu origin in the USA
  • Make a good platform for Telugu matrimonial
  • Huge convention in Early 2025

Please give a big hand and huge support to our team and make it a successful year ahead and many more.

Jai Telugu | Jai Hindu | God Bless America |

Warm Regards,

Raghunandan Lolabhattu MD, President, ATMGUSA
