Our Members
With the rate and pace of growth of medical knowledge, we felt it is necessary to have a platform to share an unbiased knowledge and updates amongst the practicing Physicians, Diabetologist, Cardiologist and Endocrinologist.
To fulfill this need we got together under the guidance of our Patrons forming DISHA. As the name suggests, DISHA provides the right direction for this venture!
The medical information and practice of medicine, is sometimes divided and debated upon between the importances of Eminent Biased medicine versus the Evidence Based medicine. Within this umbrella, our team has Senior Patrons and renowned leaders in their field who are imparting their knowledge and wisdom to the up and coming medical fraternity. Besides we have a very knowledgeable young and enthusiastic Committee driving these CMEs.
The forum aims to bring in the latest medical information to the practicing doctors, enabling them to practice as per the current guidelines – Evidence based medicine and also revisits and reemphasize the basic medical information, guided by our Patrons – Eminent’s Biased Medicine
