GSBS Medical Trust has been successfully conducting Cancer detection camps for women for the past
nearly 3 years and all camps are very well attended to. Men who accompany the ladies or, looking at
the banners, have been repeatedly making enquiries as to why not hold camps for men?

The Trustees had a discussion on this and the first camp for Cancer detection for men, sponsored by
Sri. B. T. Mallya, in the memory of his late wife Pratima Mallya, was held on the 18th of October.

To the satisfaction of all, this was a successful camp.
The camp was held for detection and awareness of oral cancer, prostrate cancer and lung cancer. The patients had to pass 3 separate stages viz. Oral Checkup, PSA Blood test and Chest X-Ray. The doctors attended to these patients for check up were ENT Dr. Dilesh Mogre and surgeon Dr. Lakhin Vira.

We thank the doctors, staff and also the participants for making this happen. The success which reflected the need for such camps has given incentive to the Trustees and they have decided to hold these camps every alternate month.
