However, those in need, especially from the lower income groups, are often unaware of the facilities or avoid them due to lack of information and concerns about hidden costs involved. With the help of Aarvi Encon, we can reach out to more people and our expert doctors and other medical professionals will be able to cater to their needs effectively. We are glad to be a part of this great initiative.”
