My very first episode with Spreaker Studio
from Afreen Rehmaan's podcast · host Afreen Rehmaan
2,500 years ago, before the world even had hospitals, there was a man who could restore sight, reshape noses, and heal the wounded with a precision that still stuns modern surgeons. His name was Sushruta — the father of surgery, author of the Sushruta Samhita, and pioneer who transformed Ayurveda into the world’s earliest surgical science. He performed cataract surgeries and rhinoplasties centuries before Europeans even knew them. He described over 300 surgical procedures and 120 surgical instruments. He insisted his students practice on fruits, vegetables, and animal hides before touching a human. Before Hippocrates was called the father of medicine, Sushruta had already mastered the scalpel. He wasn’t just a healer — he was a bridge between injury and hope. Today, I’m bringing his wisdom back to life. Thank you.
