Very good information regarding heart decease. All should know the primary symptoms of it and take precautions so that damage can be controlled.
I have an opportunity to consult Dr. C. Modok Sir at free health check up camp organized by local youth specially brother of Dr. C Modok Niranjan.
I have come here to chek up one MD Eusuf Ali (daily wages labour) . Service to man is service to God.
The initiative taken by Dr Modok Sir is extra ordinary praiseworthy.
At last I appeal Dr. Modak to attend a camp at Kamandanga HS School. under PS Tamarhat. Organization of the camp will be done by me and some other youth of the locality.
It will be extremely helpful for the poor heart patient who do nt have opportunity to consult a heart doctor.
