In Punjab, lifestyle diseases like obesity have become a silent epidemic. At the forefront of combating this crisis is MASSH Group of Hospitals with its 'Obesity-Free Punjab' campaign, which merges surgical interventions and public awareness efforts.
Starting in Ludhiana, the campaign integrates community initiatives, educational sessions, and cutting-edge bariatric procedures to confront obesity head-on. Not only adults but nearly 7% of children in Ludhiana face obesity, sparking early health challenges.
The MASSH initiative is a beacon of hope, advocating for bariatric surgery when needed, while offering up to 25% financial aid for the economically disadvantaged. This strategic initiative by India's top bariatric surgery hospital chain aims to democratize healthcare access and tackle the escalating obesity epidemic.
