Construction activity of the group is growing manyfold under the able leadership of Mr. Ramesh Thakkar.
Mr. Ketan Thakkar son of Mr.Ramesh Thakkar is a MBA in materials management and is playing an anchor role in the development of Hermes Group. It was his idea to diversify the activities in the fields of medicine, fitness training, fashion boutique etc.
As a first step in the said direction, in 1992, a well equipped diagnostic centre was established as a franchise centre of well known Medinova of Hyderabad under the name and style of Medinova Hermes Diagnostic Centre. It was followed with opening of Hermes Health Club, Hermes Communications and Hermes fashions. At present, he also has got pizza hut and wintech computers to his credit.
With able and professional management Medinova Hermes proved to be the most viable project. Cardiology tests like 2D Echo and stress tests were added to the portfolio of Medinova Hermes in the year 1998. At present, business of Medinova Hermes is to the tune of Rs. 4.50-5.00 lacs per month.
2D echo plays an important role in the field of cardiology tests. However, physicians always give preference to colour doppler test which places a video cassettes at their disposal for better diagnosis in respect of cardiovascular diseases. As such, colour doppler has an edge over 2D Echo tests and colour doppler therefore, is widely in demand by physicians and surgeons.
To meet this increasing demand and also to reap the fruits of high profitability involved in colour doppler tests,it has been deemed fit to go for installation of colour doppler facility at Medinova Hermes.
