Present Status Proposed Project Telemedicine

Cancer hospital for treatment of cancer patients:

Cancer is a dreaded problem all over India. Late Dr. Venkatrao Dawle Medical Foundation had established a cancer center at AMBAJOGAI as a joint venture with Government of Maharashtra, where patients are treated by Radiotherapy, Chemotherapy & Brachytherapy treatment. Surgical oncology section is also fully operational with well-equipped operation theater.

The equipment's in Cancer hospital area:

20 Beds cancer palliative care center

Considering the great need for comprehensive palliative care treatment facility to the cancer patients. Late Dr. Venkatrao Dawle Medical Foundation has started a 20-bed cancer palliative care center. This type of cancer palliative care center is first of its kind outside Mumbai & Pune.

3.25 Acres of land for the proposed institute of medical sciences

We have already acquired a land/plot admeasuring 3.25 acres for construction of 250 Beds Super Speciality Hospital.

The Geographical situation of Ambejogai makes it ideal place as Ambejogai is situated within a 100 km. distance from all the district head quarters of Marathwada and the adjoining Andhra Pradesh & Karnataka State.

For this reason the Medical Foundation has proposed to establish a 250 bedded Institute of Medical Sciences at Ambejogai, where all the specialty & super specialty medical treatment facility which includes Cardiology, Cardio Vascular Surgery, Neurology, NeuroSurgery, Nephrology, Urology, Burn & Plastic surgery, Orthopedics, Ophthalmology, Surgery, Medicine, Obstrecics & Gynecology, ENT, Dental, Skin and VD, Intensive Care unit, will be available along with trained & qualified Doctors.

A well-equipped Diagnostic Center with CT, MRI, cath lab, nephrology facility Nuclear Medicine facility, will be made available in the institute with trained and qualified man power.

These facilities are not available in this region whose population is above 1.5 crores. The nearest available facility is at distance of about 300kms.

The cost of these facilities is beyond the reach of the poor people & hence, these facilities will be made available to needy people at an affordable cost

For providing Telemedicine services Late Dr. Venkatrao Dawle Medical Foundation has signed MOU with Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO).

ISRO will provide satellite connectivity for base and mobile Telemedicine facility.
