Family Health and Wellness Centre at Vasant Kunj C-8

A healthy mind in a healthy body is necessary to live a happy life. Along with food habits, lifestyle, and exercising daily a doctor also plays an important role in keeping us healthy and happy. A doctor can be renamed as a god who is present on the earth to save the lives of people during harsh conditions.

Covid-19 shook everyone with its impact on mankind. When everyone was struggling to save lives while sitting at home and the world undergoes a full stop and everything was closed for a certain period of time the only people who were working for mankind were frontline workers, Doctors, and the whole health department of the world. People were not allowed to move out of the house at that time Doctors and other health workers were working and saving people from Corona Virus, Risking their lives, and living away from their families for months. Not only this several doctors and health workers lost their lives while working for mankind.

When all the OPDs & health clinics were closed it became difficult for people to find a doctor nearby and if they find it, it was highly paid and it became a problem for those with low wages or no wages. So, to come up with these problems of finding a doctor or paying high fees several communities and people came ahead with some good initiatives to help mankind.
