Nagpur: Renowned Homeopath; Dr. Vilas Danglewas awarded the Padma Shri in the field of medicine (homeopathy) this year. The announcement, made on January 25, 2025, recognizes a lifetime of dedication to serving humanity. At 70 years old, Dr. Dangre continues to be a beacon of compassion, healing countless lives while inspiring many through his work.
Dr Dangre etched his place in history when he treated Prime Minister Narendra Modi during the 2014 parliamentary election campaign.
After the rally at Nagpur’s Kasturchand Park, PM Modi lost his voice and questioned his ability to handle the upcoming rally in Brahmapuri. Dr. Dangre’s homeopathic treatment proved to be a miracle.
With reassurances from Union Minister Nitin Gadkari, Modi took the medicine and his voice recovered almost immediately. Impressed by its effectiveness, the Prime Minister later requested that the same drug be sent to New Delhi.
Dr. Dangre’s professional journey is not only about curing disease, but also about healing society. For over 50 years, he has provided care to financially weak patients by charging a nominal fee. His clinic in Nagpur has become a sanctuary for those turned away by others, and more than one patient has benefited from his expertise.
Renowned for his ability to diagnose complex illnesses through ‘nadi’ (pulse testing), Dr Dangre treated conditions ranging from severe skin diseases to mental health issues.
Patients of all walks of life – Shiv Sena patriarch Balasaheb Thackeray, Bharat Ratna Lata Mangeshkar, former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee, and other treaters such as BJP Stalwart Lal Krishna Advani I asked for his help when I failed.
Born in 1954 in Chandur Bazaar, a small town in Amravati district, Dr Dangre’s roots in social service and spirituality date back to his childhood. He joined the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) at the age of seven and imbibed the values of service and discipline under the guidance of Golwalkar Guruji. Ramakrishna’s relationship with mathematics during his teenage years further shaped his spiritual and social outlook.
“Spirituality and social values were instilled in me from an early age. My life is a gift from the Almighty. I firmly believe in serving humanity without expecting reward. Dangre Dr.
Even after losing his vision ten years ago, Dr. Dangre’s commitment to service remained steadfast. He trained doctors to advance his methods and practiced with unwavering precision. His personal philosophy, shaped by adversity, reflects gratitude and humility. “I am living a bonus life and have been saved by the grace of God from an accident and serious health problems. I will continue to serve as long as I can,” he says.
Dr. Dangre is not one to practice for financial gain. He donated much of his earnings to social causes. This recognition is not just a personal accomplishment for Dr. Dangre, but a tribute to the values he represents – a blend of medical excellence, humanitarianism, and an unwavering dedication to service.
As Nagpur celebrates this honor, Dr. Vilas Dangre remains inspired and proves that true success lies in enriching the lives of others.
