We participated in a multi-specialty medical camp across
multiple centers in an underserved area in Gujarat. Kudos to
Mr. Fakhri Sabuwala, Lion's Club of Kapadwanj, Kapadwanj
Mahanagarpalika and Sahyog Charitable Trust for
orchestrating this!
Lighting the ceremonial lamp at the commencement of the camp.
The Women's Health Outreach Camp- examinations were conducted, medications distributed and myths busted!
Distributing essential eyedrops and testing vision as part of the Eye
Examination.
Offering professional advice and prescribing remedies during the
Arete Outreach
Abscess drainage, treatment of swellings and essential extractions
were some of the emergency services provided by Arete Outreach
Atraumatic Restorative Treatments (ART) are fillings done without
the use of dental drills and with minimum equipment. These are
especially useful when treating children in camps.
Diabetic Retinopathy Disease Screening by Arete Outreach: All
diabetics are at risk of retinal disease and loss of vision. Frequent
check-ups are essential.
Diabetic Retinopathy Disease Screening: Undetected diabetes can
be diagnosed during these camps through Random Blood Sugar
testing as part of Diabetic Retinopathy Screening. This can be a
boon when conducting a camp in underserved communities.
A dental consultation in progress during Arete Outreach.
Distributing free medications, toothpastes, toothbrushes, and noting
suggestions for further treatment so local doctors can follow up.
The always cheerful Uncle Saifee, our faithful autorickshaw driver
who carted us from one hospital to another...after his dental
examination.
With one of Kapadwanj's Angels, Mr. Fakhri Sabuwala, and his
family.
Draped in shawls, blessed with flowers and gifted with
mementos- we were perfectly felicitated!

At the end of Day 2, a job well done!
