His lifetime contributions to society as a medical practitioner has been in rural [[India]]. He has been practicing in [[Kunrathur]], 30&nbsp;km off [[Chennai]], since the early 1950s and still does so at the age of 81.<br />

Krishnamoorthy has motivated scientific spirit in the Siddha system of medicine for giving it a global recognition. This was achieved through publishing several scientific papers, evolving clinically effective formulations and steering committees set up by the Government of India, Ministry of Health.<br />
<br />
He was the original formulator of a simple herbal drug (777 oil) for the treatment of a complex skin disorder like Psoriasis that previously had no solution in any system of medicine in the world.<ref name="Dr. JRK Siddha">[http://www.jrksiddha.com/ Dr. JRK’s Siddha Research and Pharmaceuticals Pvt Ltd]</ref><br />
