A Dubai-based leading healthcare group has set up a diagnostic facility in West Bengal to assist people living below the poverty line in the area.
DM Foundation, the charitable arm of DM Healthcare, has collaborated with two India-based NGOs, Human Welfare Trust and Sahayak Welfare Trust, to provide the services at the center in South 24 Paraganas in West Bengal.
Established under the 'Healing Touch' initiative of the foundation, the center aims to offer immediate medical solutions to the people in the area, for free or at highly subsidised rates, the foundation said in a statement.
It was inaugurated by Anoop Moopen, Trustee of Dr Moopen's Foundation.
"The new facility would provide advanced medical equipment for laboratory tests, ultra-sound and other tests to ensure patients get quick results and timely medical action is taken, especially in the case of fatal diseases," Padma Shri Azad Moopen, Chairman, DM Healthcare and founder of Dr Moopen's Foundation, said.
The foundation has been involved in providing quality healthcare services in rural India.
