Ludhiana, May 1, 2023: Dr. Karambir Singh Gill, Assistant Professor, Department of Paediatrics, DMC&H, has completed his International Diploma of Pediatric Allergies and Asthma from Sir Gangaram Hospital in New Delhi, which is accredited by the Global Chest Initiative in the United States. He is the first Ludhiana paediatrician to complete this diploma.
Following this accomplishment, Dr. Gill successfully hosted a camp at the DMCH Rural Health Centre in Pohir. Around 130 children were examined and given free medicines here.
Dr. Sandeep Puri, Principal of DMC&H, commended Dr. Gill and the Department of Paediatrics on their success.
"Cases of allergies and asthma are increasing in developing countries, including India," stated Dr. Karambir. Allergies affect both urban and rural children in Punjab. This credential will enable us to better serve these youngsters. Most parents believe many myths about asthma and are hesitant to seek proper treatment. This effort will also aid children with food sensitivities."
