GNRC to conduct press club’s health program
Guwahati: The city based GNRC Hospitals will support the ‘Evening with a Doctor’ program at Guwahati Press Club (GPC) on next Saturday (10 September) with their resource persons. The physicians (including cardiologist Dr Rajib Das) and health workers from the prestigious healthcare institute will join the evening OPD program starting at 5 pm (to continue till 8 pm) for free medical consultations to the members of the press club along with their close relatives. The first program of the weekly evening clinic series at GPC premises was launched on 20 August, where Dr Kashyap Kr Das (Medicine, Dispur Hospitals) provided necessary consultations on healthcare issues to the member-journalists. The participants, including some senior journalists, took the opportunity to get their blood pressure & sugar checked by the health workers. Mentionable is that Assam’s well known Dispur Hospitals Pvt Ltd under the leadership of Dr Jayanta Bardoloi took the initiative to raise a doctor’s chamber on the GPC campus, which was inaugurated by young citizens namely Dhiman, Kristi, Shantanava, Arya, Shambhavi, Nistha and Arunava on the occasion of India’s 70th Independence Day. The second program was graced by two physicians from Down Town Hospital namely Dr Swapnaav Barthakur (Medicine) & Dr Ruma Dutta (O& G) and the third one was attended by Dr Nitin Gupta (Urology), Dr Juri Talukdar (General Practitioner) and Dr Debanga Borah (Cardiology) from Wintrobe Hospital. The forthcoming Saturday evening OPDs will be attended by the physicians from Narayana Super Specialty Hospital, Apollo Chennai Hospital, Nemcare Hospital etc. Though the initiative has been formulated primarily for the benefit of GPC members, anyone related to the journalism is encouraged to take advantage of it. Moreover, the journalists based in other parts of the region may also participate in the program, said a GPC statement. _______________________________________________ Assam mailing list [email protected] http://lists.assamnet.org/listinfo.cgi/assam-assamnet.org
