Preventive Healthcare Session

Aside from medical services, our expert doctors held a preventive healthcare session for the attendees at the free medical camp in Karachi. The session focused on personal hygiene. The doctors discussed how the lack of personal hygiene can cause various health issues and the ways to improve personal hygiene.

Diseases and Treatments

Most of the patients who received consultations were suffering from skin allergies, fever, diabetes, pains, hypertension, gastric problems, cough, flu, and body weakness. Additionally, free medicines were given to a large number of needy patients. 

Impact

The free medical camp made a difference in the lives of 627 deserving patients. By providing quality healthcare we cater to the health needs of underserved residents. Karachi’s dense population and high poverty levels often leave many people without proper medical care. 

Our dedicated team of healthcare professionals ensured that each patient received thorough care and advice on managing their conditions. In addition, a preventive healthcare session was conducted to educate people and encourage healthy lifestyles and better hygiene practices to prevent the spread of common diseases.

Through your support, this medical camp was successful and we fulfilled our mission to help needy people who had been unable to seek necessary treatments due to financial barriers. This initiative made a substantial impact on the local community and we are immensely grateful for your contributions.

Medical Camp Team

The medical camp team consisted of 19 members, including 2 supervisors,  3 doctors (2 males and 1 female), 2 lab technicians, 1 staff nurse, 2 pharmacists, 4 patient registrars, 1 photographer, 1 driver, and 2 crew members.
