Where it all started :
Through inspiration from his guru Chavali Vyaghreswarudu, Adinarayana Rao garu started polio camps, helped many poor people and gave them a life to walk. With the help of his friend Dr. Babji he first placed polio surgery camp and operated 9 people out of which 400 people came for operation. The second camp was placed in Bhimavaram and he operated around 40 people. Like wise many people got to know and reach him for the polio camps. The camps spread through all over states and reached whole India.
Services :
In his 42 years of service he has done lakhs of surgeries to poor people. Many surgeries are complex ones which includes more than one surgical procedure. He has done surgery for the persons having deformities of the limbs secondary to the post-polio residual paralysis, cerebral palsy and other congenital conditions like club foot etc.
He is the managing trustee of free Polio Surgical and Research Foundation, a non profitable organization with the motto Immobile - Mobile - Independent (Immobile - kadhala lenidi to Mobile -Independent ante own ga nadavagaladam). He is also director General of Prema school of nursing and Prema sagari college of nursing.
