The Centre will first conduct a free HBA1C camp for ten days from November 21-30.

The Centre, equipped with a diabetologist and counselor, will provide individual counseling and guidance by a diabetologist. There will be expert lectures per month. We will also take focused follow-up of the patients using various modes. We intend to start such centers in other cities in the near future,” added Dr. Dixit.

According to Dr. Dixit, the Centre will be crucial for the data management of the patients, which will further help our research.
