Modern Healthcare - Touching Lives



                                

  • A young Pakistani girl gets her Liver Transplant done in a hospital in Delhi.

  • A well-to-do middle aged lady comes from U.K. for a Cardiovascular Surgery and to tour India, thereafter.

  • A poor rickshaw puller’s son is treated, free of cost, for Blood Cancer after being helped by an N.G.O., at A State-Of-Art Hospital at Rajasthan.

The above examples are of people, set indifferent countries, social strata and economic status, getting quality healthcare, in India. And they all have a different story –

  •       The young Pakistani girl came to India because her strife torn and backward country lacks the cutting edge technology and state of art facilities required for her treatment. And India, which shares a common historical and cultural umbilical cord with her country, is the best possible option.She was given a new life by the doctors of Apollo Hospital, Indraprastha in March, 2013 

                           

  •   The middle aged British lady can very well afford to get treated in her own country, but, in India, she can get the best healthcare and can also tour our beautiful country, at a combined cost which is less than what would cost in her exorbitantly priced country, for her treatment only. Thus for India, she opens up a great new option for earning revenue – ‘Medical Tourism’.


           



  • As for the poor rickshaw puller, just a few years back, the only option for him would have been to line upto an overcrowded Government Hospital and the resultant delay would have been the difference between life and death. But, now, due to various Government schemes for poor citizens and effort of many N.G.O.s, he can dream of getting his son treated at a state-of-art private hospital, free of cost.

  •    

So, What Is The Common Strand Between All These Stories?

It is, the reach of best possible and affordable modern healthcare, which is touching our lives like never before. The efforts of Government bodies, Philanthropists, Hospitals and N.G.O.s and research in medical field, resulting in affordable healthcare and medicines, are now showing results.



The Indian drug manufacturers with their cheap generic drugs, are like boom for the poor countries all over the world. Indian drugs have help arrest the scourge of AIDS, worldwide.



Efforts of large healthcare groups, like Apollo Hospitals, who have helped bring the latest cutting edge technology, at an affordable price, to a wide group of people, can never be understated.

Wellness Through Nature


One of the important aspect for people's, well being is that now many of them are searching for good health for good health from their surroundings. More and more people are becoming aware of the benefits of the traditional therapies like yoga, naturopathy, reiki, fenshueti. They are trying new methods like laughter therapy, jogging etc.

Now, in the mornings and evening, we can see people jogging, walking, doing exercises and yoga, Joining laughter groups or just inhaling fresh air.

This shows that everyone is now more aware of their well being. They are shunning bad habits like smoking, drinking, tobacco, overeating etc. This long run will help in improving everyone's health.

And, What Does The Future Hold For Us?

A lots of research is going on in the fields of Stem Cell Therapy, Genetic Engineering, Robotic Medicine and Surgery, Cancer Treatment etc.  As a result of these, the way we get treatment shall be revolutionized in the next 5-10 years.
                              


Modern Healthcare shall touch us even more, resulting in a healthier and full life. We only have to take care that it is affordable, inclusive and based on ethical practices.
