Dr Latha Balasundaram heads the Department of Physiotherapy at Fernandez Hospital. She completed her Master’s in Physiotherapy from Durgabai Deshmukh College, Hyderabad, and brings with her a strong belief in holistic healing through physiotherapy. With a keen focus on maternal health, she is also a Lamaze Certified Childbirth Educator, Board Certified Lactation Counselor, and a Pelvic Floor Specialist.

Dr Latha`s approach blends clinical expertise with empathy, patience, and personalised care — values she considers essential for true healing. Over the years, she has worked closely with expectant mothers, postnatal women, and patients with pelvic floor dysfunction, helping them regain strength, confidence, and wellness. Her passion lies in supporting women through pregnancy, childbirth recovery, and beyond, with therapies that are evidence-based and centred around individual needs.

Through her work, Dr Latha continues to champion the role of physiotherapy not just as a treatment, but as a vital pillar of preventive and rehabilitative care at Fernandez Hospital.
