Udupi, Apr 1: Dr TMA Pai Hospital, has announced a special initiative to mark World Health Day on April 7. In this initiative, from April 1 to 30, the hospital is providing health check-up packages at a reduced rate as part of its commitment to promote preventive healthcare and early detection of diseases within the community.

The World Health Day theme for this year, ‘Healthy beginnings, hopeful futures,’ encourages people to take proactive steps toward better health. In support of this theme, Dr TMA Pai Hospital has developed comprehensive health check packages that address the needs of various age groups. These packages are designed to identify potential health concerns such as diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, kidney and liver conditions, and certain cancers at an early stage, when treatment is most effective.

Dr Shashikiran Umakanth, medical superintendent of Dr TMA Pai Hospital, said, “In the current fast-paced lifestyle, many health problems remain unnoticed until they lead to complications. Early detection through regular health check-ups plays a vital role in ensuring timely treatment, avoiding complications, and improving the quality of life. This initiative is our way of encouraging the public to take the important first step toward preventive care.”

The health packages provided by the hospital also include guidance on adult immunizations, which are often overlooked. Vaccinations such as those for influenza, pneumonia, hepatitis, and tetanus continue to be important in adult life, especially for senior citizens and those who have health problems.

Dr TMA Pai Hospital remains dedicated to providing accessible and ethical healthcare while raising awareness about the importance of prevention. The public of Udupi district are encouraged to make use of this opportunity to review their health status and consult with medical professionals about risk factors and lifestyle modifications.
