Biography
Khalili was born in Shiraz and lived in his private residence on a street that was later named after him. Due to the growing prevalence of eye diseases such as trachoma, and the need for a specialized hospital for treating eye, ear, nose, and throat conditions in Shiraz, he decided to build the Khalili Educational and Medical Center in 1966 (1345 SH). He allocated land for the project east and downstream from his home, on the western side of Namazi Hospital in Shiraz.[2]
The hospital, covering about 2,500 m², was built with full scientific and technical equipment and endowed to Shiraz University of Medical Sciences. Over time, it expanded considerably and is now known as Khalili Hospital of Shiraz. It is also worth noting that his residence, now known as Bagh Khalili, has become one of Shiraz’s tourist attractions.[3][4]
