Free diagnostics and surgeries

As part of the volunteers programme, Aster DM Healthcare is providing a number of free surgeries as well as advanced diagnostics services.

One of the beneficiary patients is Agnes, an 88-year-old woman from Bengaluru, India, who suffered a broken leg from a fall. She was brought to Aster CMI Hospital Bengaluru where she underwent surgery free of charge, and was also provided free medical care.

Sharing her experience, Agnes said: “I am so grateful to the doctors and nurses for their tireless work and the support. The fact that I would otherwise not have been able to afford such high quality treatment makes Aster Volunteers a real blessing.”

Another beneficiary of the Aster Volunteer programme said: “My father had been suffering from cardiac problem for many years. Due to financial problems, he was not able to afford an angiogram. But then Aster Volunteers performed the angiogram free of charge.”
