Nawala Medical Centre Marks 20 Years of Ayurvedic Healthcare
View(s):The Nawala Medical Centre, located in Koswatte, Nawala, is marking 20 years of service this year. Since opening its doors in 2005, the centre has provided treatment to nearly 50,000 patients, both local and foreign, offering a mix of traditional and Ayurvedic care with a practical, reliable approach.
The centre is led by Dr. Ruwantha Withanage and Dr Shymika Vithanage. who continues the legacy of the Kudiruppuwa Kadum Bidum Veda lineage, one of Sri Lanka’s traditional medical families. He is supported by his spouse Dr Shyamika Vithanage, and an experienced team of doctors, nurses, and support staff who work together to treat a range of conditions using a combination of age-old knowledge and modern medical understanding.
Treatments at the centre focus on common injuries and chronic issues such as joint problems, spinal trauma, arthritis, sciatica, headaches, paralysis, and sports-related injuries. Panchakarma therapy and physiotherapy treatments are also available. The clinic sees a steady number of patients recovering from both acute and long-term conditions, including some cases previously recommended for surgery. All treatments are provided at the centre itself, with no need for home remedies or complicated instructions, making it a convenient option for all looking for accessible and traditional healthcare. The centre also provides treatment for joint pains caused by Chikungunya, offering relief to patients within 5 to 6 days.
In addition to everyday patients, the centre has become a familiar name among school athletes, especially in the Colombo area. Many students involved in sports visit the clinic for quick, reliable care. Because of this, Dr. Withanage is also referred to informally as “Rugby Veda Mahattaya” by young athletes.
The Government has also recognised the centre’s role in preserving traditional knowledge, with final-year students following Ayurveda-related degree programmes at Government universities being sent to train under Dr. Withanage as part of their clinical education.
