Govardhan Ayurveda Hospital, located at Govardhan EcoVillage (GEV) in Maharashtra and operated in association with Bhaktivedanta Hospital & Research Institute, has been named Best Wellness Centre of the Year 2026 during the FICCI International Medical Value Travel Awards — one of Asia’s most prestigious recognitions in the healthcare and medical tourism sector.
The award was presented at Advantage Healthcare India, a summit organized by the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI), where more than 100 institutions competed across categories. In the Wellness Centre category alone, nearly 35 nominations were submitted. The selection process was conducted by Ernst & Young (EY), which required participating institutions to submit detailed documentation and then give a formal presentation before a grand jury panel.
“Receiving this recognition is not only about the hospital,” said Sarvagya Krsna Das of the Bhaktivedanta Hospital & Research Institute, “but also about highlighting the unique ecosystem of Govardhan Eco Village, which is based on the spiritual principles of ISKCON.” He added that the team views the award as “an offering at the lotus feet of Śrīla Prabhupāda.”
