On the occasion of World Thalassaemia Day, I had the privilege of celebrating with the Shri Ramanujacharya Foundation at Ilkal.

The enthusiasm and dedication of the volunteers, led by Dr. Pavan Dharak, is truly phenomenal. For the past 11 years, Dr. Pavan has been doing remarkable service by providing free treatment to children with Thalassemia Major. 🎉

The foundation is also extending noble support through free treatment for children with cleft palate, children of defence service personnel, and children with cerebral palsy 👍. In addition, the foundation has funded 6 allogeneic bone marrow transplants, giving new hope and life to young patients.

May God bless this wonderful mission and may such compassionate service continue to grow 🙏

I was happy to deliver a talk on Thalassemia prevention and distribute bicycles to children who have successfully undergone bone marrow transplant.

What's the most satisfying moment for a doctor even in 2025 !....Owning a bungalow in Indiranagar ? driving fancy cars ? Exotic foreign trips ?.....NOPE...it's always seeing your patients recover from serious illnesses...Excited to share the story of a shepherd family from Belgaum district. They met me in Davangere clinic with their 5 year old son having bleeding from nose and they had lost a kid earlier with a similar problem. They were quite apprehensive and they had left their flocks in a nearby village. On seeing him I was sure it was Fanconi anemia with bone marrow failure ,where blood counts fall rapidly and requires life saving bone marrow transplant as early as possible. Many such children won't get treated on time and die of bleeding and infections. I counselled parents regarding bone marrow transplant and need for family screening.Unfortunately even their 3 year old daughter also found to have Fanconi anemia. The brave parents took a firm decision and moved to Bangalore as advised and left all their flocks in Davangere. Finally their efforts and perseverance paid off. Both the kids underwent life saving bone marrow transplant at our center with help of funds from coal India and other organisations. They are doing well post transplant. That's really a great inspiration for many parents across the country and a proud moment for us. Narayana Health Coal India Limited Sunil Bhat Pooja Mallya Shobha Badiger
