Meet OGKTMA

Since 1982, OGKTMA has united physicians of Indian origin across America - answering the call and turning four decades of friendship into care for communities here and in Telangana.

OGKTMA 38th Annual Convention, Louisville 2025

To bring together graduates of Osmania, Gandhi, Kakatiya & Telangana - and to serve as a home for charitable, educational, and cultural life.

Founded in 1982, OGKTMA represents a conglomeration of more than 8,000 practicing physicians in the United States - graduates of Kaloji Narayana Rao University of Health Sciences. One in every seven people in the USA is touched by the care of a physician of Indian origin.

Through annual conventions, scientific education, charitable initiatives like medical-equipment drives and COVID-19 relief, and a strong alumni network, OGKTMA continues to honor its heritage while advancing the practice of medicine in America.
