The camp featured specialist services from Consultant Physician Dr. Sumit Rakshit (MBBS, MD – Internal Medicine) and Interventional Dermatologist and Cosmetologist Dr. Megha Kakani (MBBS, DDVL). Patients were examined for a range of health conditions and provided with tailored guidance and treatment recommendations.
The camp was led by Dr. Kunal Roy, Director of Health 4U Multispeciality Clinic, as part of the clinic’s ongoing community outreach efforts.
