A Hope in the Dark
The Spine Foundation dedicated to providing free spine care in rural and tribal areas of India. We aim to raise awareness about spine issues by educating communities, offering treatment, and establishing essential infrastructure to support those in need.
Initiatives By
Engaging with schools in urban poor areas is vital for instilling healthy habits from a young age. I work with educators to integrate health education into curricula, emphasizing the importance of nutrition and physical activity. By creating a culture of health within schools, we can influence children's habits and empower them to make informed choices, ultimately impacting their long-term health.
Point Of View
The disparity in healthcare access between urban and rural populations is a pressing issue that needs addressing. As a spine surgeon, I recognize the immense suffering faced by those in underserved communities due to untreated spinal conditions.
My commitment to serving these populations stems from the belief that healthcare should be a fundamental right for all. Through free spine surgeries and consultations, I aim to bridge the gap between those in need and the resources available to them.
By bringing mobile clinics to rural areas, we can provide essential services to those who would otherwise go untreated. Moreover, I emphasize the importance of community education in spinal health, empowering individuals to seek help early.
Together, we can create a system where everyone has access to the care they deserve. My dedication to this cause is unwavering, as I strive to inspire others to join in the effort. The journey may be challenging, but the rewards of restoring health and hope to underserved communities are immeasurable.
We Are With You
The Spine Foundation aims to provide the best spine care to the rural, tribal, and poor in urban areas of India. It was Founded by Dr. Shekhar Bhojraj, who believes that there is a critical gap of service in health care for this segment of patients who understand their spine health care needs but are usually ill-equipped with information or economic resources to access quality services. The Spine Foundation provides free medical consultations, treatments, and surgeries for different spinal conditions. Indeed, such spinal conditions can affect quality of life pretty seriously.
The foundation services include direct medical care, education, and preventive awareness of spinal health, education of communities to take preventive measures, and building sustainable healthcare in remote areas. The organization aims at empowering the individual and community to take control of their spine health instead of just treating it. With caring service and expert medical interventions, The Spine Foundation envisions a future where all individuals can receive quality spine care.
Together, we can create a healthier future by ensuring that every individual, regardless of their background or location, has access to quality spine care. Let's work towards empowering the rural, tribal, and urban poor with the treatment and knowledge they need for a pain-free life.
