Biography

Raghu Ram Pillarisetti was born on 22 September 1966 in Guntur in the undivided Andhra Pradesh in India to medical doctor parents,[24] P. V. Chalapathi Rao and Ushalakshmi Kumari, a breast cancer survivor.[17] He graduated in medicine (MBBS) Siddhartha Medical College, secured a master's degree in surgery (MS) obtaining first place from Kasturba Medical College, Mangalore in 1995.[28][29][30] He then went to UK and obtained FRCS in 1997 from all the four Surgical Royal Colleges in the British Isles (Edinburgh, London, Glasgow & Ireland).[31][32][33] He subsequently completed Higher Surgical Training & subspecialty training in oncoplastic breast surgery at the Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust in London and at the Nottingham Breast Institute. In 2002, his mother was diagnosed with breast cancer. He relocated to India in 2007 and established a dedicated purpose built facility for breast health care at KIMS Hospitals in Hyderabad. The Centre, KIMS-USHALAKSHMI Centre for Breast Diseases,[34][35][36][37][38] bears his mother’s name (Ushalakshmi).[39][40][41]

Raghu Ram, over the course of time, founded Ushalakshmi Breast Cancer Foundation for spreading awareness about the disease[23] and, later, started publishing Pink Connexion, a quarterly newsletter to aid his awareness campaigns.[24]

Under the auspices of Ushalakshmi Breast Cancer Foundation, he championed a number of unique and innovative initiatives in India to transform breast cancer from a ‘taboo’ issue to a much commonly discussed one, thus creating the much needed awareness about importance of early detection. Since 2007, he has spearheaded the annual “Pink Ribbon Campaign”, which is a benchmark breast cancer awareness activity in Hyderabad’s calendar during the month of October (international breast cancer awareness month).[42][43][44]

Between 2012 – 2016, he has overseen the implementation of south Asia’s largest population based breast cancer screening programme in the southern Indian states of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh. Ushalakshmi Breast Cancer Foundation in partnership with the Governments of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh screened 200, 000 underprivileged women spread across 4000 villages for early signs of breast cancer by way of Clinical Breast Examination (CBE) performed by over 3000 healthcare workers. Women diagnosed with breast cancer were treated free of cost under the State Government’s Arogyasree scheme.[45][46][47][48][49]

In 2016, the Government of India invited him to be part of the Steering Committee and a high powered Technical Advisory Group (TAG)[50] set up by the Union Ministry of Health, which has drafted guidelines to replicate the Clinical Breast Examination (CBE) based breast cancer screening programme across the nation.[51][45]

In 2017, under the auspices of the Foundation, he conceived, designed & developed the world’s first mobile app[52][53] that provides information in 12 languages[54][55][56][57][58] about every aspect of breast cancer and benign (non cancer) breast health issues in simple easy to understand format, which is freely downloadable in iOs and android platforms.[59][56][60]

In 2019, in an initiative for the first time in the world, he has utilized artificial intelligence by integrating life size augmented reality technology in a mobile app to spread the message of early detection of breast cancer to a large section of people. This is a futuristic technology that has a potential for the ‘celebrity and doctor’ to enter into people’s homes and create awareness, without actually physically being present.[61][62][63][64]

ASI is South Asia’s largest & World’s second largest surgical organization that represents the surgical fraternity in India.[66][67][68][69][70] As President ASI,[71] he launched five Skills Courses[72][73][74][66] & the National Online Skills Enhancement Programme (NSEP)[75] in 2020, which are aimed to enhance the knowledge base & improve the skill sets of surgical trainees.

As Convenor of International Affairs for the Association of Surgeons of India (2017 – 2018), he initiated a working partnership between the Association of Surgeons of India and the Royal College of Surgeons of England, thereby facilitating the process of selecting bright young surgical trainees from India to obtain advanced subspecialty surgical training at selected centres of excellence in the UK through the Royal College’s International Surgical Training Programme (ISTP).[76][77][78][79][80]

He was a member of the governing council of the Association of Surgeons of India from 2013 – 2015 and served as its overseas coordinator between 2009-2012.[81]

He played a pivotal role in garnering the support of the surgical fraternity in India to establish the Association of Breast Surgeons of India (ABSI), which represents general surgeons, surgical oncologists and plastic surgeons treating patients with breast disease. He served as its founder Honorary Secretary (2011–13), Vice President (2013–14) and as President (2015 – 2017), the youngest in the organization's history.[82][83][84] During his term as President, ‘ABSI Training module’ was launched in twelve cities and towns all over India. This pan India training module initiated in 2016 achieved the objective of imparting standardized teaching to trainees and surgeons regarding management of patients presenting with various breast disorders.[85][86][87][88] He also spearheaded the ‘ABSI-UK Fellowship Programme’, which allows surgical trainees from India selected on merit to obtain ‘hands on’ one year subspecialty training in breast centres of excellence in the UK. Commenced in 2016, five trainees from India have completed their training in the UK.[89][90][91]

He served as a member of the board of advocates of the American Society of Breast Surgeons in 2009, the first surgeon from outside USA to sit in the board.[92]

He has been associated with the Indian Association of Surgical Oncology as a member, as its overseas coordinator (2005–08), as the editorial secretary  (2009–10), as a member of the executive committee (2011–12) and as the joint editor of its official journal, Indian Journal of Surgical Oncology (IJSO) (2010–14). He has participated and organized several conferences and symposiums where he has delivered orations and keynote addresses and has moderated many panel discussions.[93][94][95]
