Guwahati: Peerless Hospital Guwahati, the city’s newly launched super-specialty hospital, successfully organised a free multispecialty health camp at ISBT, Guwahati on Tuesday (August 12).
The initiative, aimed at providing accessible healthcare services to the community, was open for the general public while bus operators, police and traffic personnel, ASTC employees and regular commuters actively took part in the campaign.
The camp was inaugurated in the presence of Padmanabh Baruah, DCP West Guwahati, who lauded the hospital’s efforts to make quality healthcare available to all sections of society.
A team of specialist doctors, led by Dr. Pranab Barua, Medical Superintendent, Peerless Hospital Guwahati, offered free consultations in multiple departments, including nephrology, neurology, gynaecology, and general medicine.
The team of doctors from Peerless Hospital, Guwahati, who conducted the free health check-up camp, comprised Dr. Dimbeswar Das, Senior Consultant – Internal Medicine and Diabetology; Dr. Malabika Bhagawati, Senior Consultant – Obstetrics & Gynaecology; Dr. Kurmi Rajesh Kumar, Consultant – Neurology; and Dr. Hrishika B, Consultant – Internal Medicine.
Over 300 people availed themselves of the services during the day, receiving on-the-spot health check-ups, basic diagnostic screening, and expert medical advice. This initiative follows a similar camp organised by Peerless Hospital Guwahati at ICAR, Rani, on July 28, 2025, underscoring the hospital’s commitment to community outreach and preventive healthcare.
Speaking on the occasion, Dr. Pranab Barua said, “Peerless Hospital Guwahati is committed to bridging healthcare gaps in Assam and the Northeast. Such camps help us reach out directly to the community, raise awareness about early diagnosis, and ensure people have access to specialist care without barriers of cost or distance.”
Padmanabh Baruah, DCP West Guwahati, added, “It is heartening to see an institution like Peerless Hospital taking proactive steps to bring healthcare to the doorsteps of our people. Initiatives like this not only provide immediate medical aid but also inspire a culture of regular health check-ups, which is crucial for early detection and treatment. The ISBT is an ideal location for such a camp, as thousands of people pass through it every day, many of whom may have undiagnosed health issues that this free camp can help identify.”
