Catching Silent Killers Before Irreversible Organ Damage
In northern Karnataka, high-stress agrarian lifestyles, changing diets, and low health literacy have triggered an alarming rise in undiagnosed hypertension and diabetes mellitus. Because these conditions rarely exhibit noticeable early symptoms, victims only discover their illness when catastrophic organ damage occurs—such as sudden heart attacks, strokes, or end-stage kidney failure.
Indeed, M.K. Bhandari Hospital’s clinical study showed that 53% of all end-stage renal failure cases in Raichur originate from unmanaged hypertension (28%) and diabetes (25%). By taking multi-parameter screening camps into village squares, school buildings, and community centres, we detect hypertension and diabetes years before complications develop.

Health Check-Up Camp FAQs
Essential information for attendees and community leaders wanting to organize a camp.
Do I need to come fasting for the health camp? +
While fasting is ideal for blood sugar tests, we conduct Random Blood Sugar (RBS) screening at camps, meaning you can be screened whether you have eaten breakfast or not.
How can our village or organization request a free health camp? +
Gram Panchayats, community leaders, and local NGOs can submit a request by calling our Public Relations Officer (Guru Raj S Desai) at +91 63607 51935. We require a sheltered hall/school and 1–2 weeks advance planning.
