Punjab's Battle Against Obesity: MASSH Group's Revolutionary Campaign

MASSH Group of Hospitals has launched 'Obesity-Free Punjab,' a campaign aimed at tackling the obesity crisis through community outreach, education, and advanced surgery options. With obesity rates soaring in Punjab, this initiative provides a significant opportunity for change, focusing on awareness and accessible treatments, including bariatric surgery.

In Punjab, lifestyle diseases like obesity have become a silent epidemic. At the forefront of combating this crisis is MASSH Group of Hospitals with its 'Obesity-Free Punjab' campaign, which merges surgical interventions and public awareness efforts.

Starting in Ludhiana, the campaign integrates community initiatives, educational sessions, and cutting-edge bariatric procedures to confront obesity head-on. Not only adults but nearly 7% of children in Ludhiana face obesity, sparking early health challenges.

The MASSH initiative is a beacon of hope, advocating for bariatric surgery when needed, while offering up to 25% financial aid for the economically disadvantaged. This strategic initiative by India's top bariatric surgery hospital chain aims to democratize healthcare access and tackle the escalating obesity epidemic.
