Srinagar, July 4 (JKNS): Reinforcing its commitment to advancing accessible and quality cancer care in Jammu and Kashmir, PARAS Health Srinagar will organise a Free Cancer Screening Camp on Sunday, July 5, from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM at its hospital premises.
The initiative aims to raise awareness about cancer, promote preventive healthcare, and encourage early diagnosis through expert medical consultation and screening.
The camp is open to the general public and will provide free cancer screening along with consultations by experienced specialists. The initiative seeks to educate people about the importance of recognising early warning signs, adopting preventive health practices, and seeking timely medical intervention.
With cancer cases witnessing a steady rise across the country, healthcare experts continue to stress that early detection remains one of the most effective ways to improve treatment outcomes and survival rates. The screening camp is designed to help individuals identify potential health concerns at an early stage and receive appropriate medical guidance.
Speaking about the initiative, Dr. Murtuza Habib, Facility Director, PARAS Health Srinagar, said, “Early detection can save lives. We urge people not to ignore symptoms or delay health check-ups. This free cancer screening camp is an opportunity for everyone to prioritise their health and seek expert medical advice. At PARAS Health Srinagar, we are committed to making quality oncology services more accessible and creating greater awareness about cancer prevention and early diagnosis.”
Dr. Habib further highlighted that PARAS Health Srinagar has been steadily strengthening oncology services in Jammu and Kashmir by offering comprehensive cancer care under one roof. Equipped with advanced diagnostic facilities, multidisciplinary expertise, and patient-centric treatment protocols, the hospital is helping improve access to specialised cancer care for patients across the region while reducing the need to travel outside the Union Territory for treatment.
The hospital has been consistently working towards building awareness through community outreach programmes, preventive health initiatives, and specialised screening camps, reflecting its broader commitment to improving healthcare outcomes in the region.
