Apollo Sugar, a flagship chain specialty clinic from Apollo Hospitals Group has launched mobile screening vans to conduct free sugar screening for the patients. According to the sources from Apollo Sugar, the aim of this new initiative on the World Diabetes Day is to reach out to the people and bring them healthcare services closer to their homes.

Diabetes is the biggest concerns India is facing today, this is creeping slowly and its effects are multipronged. Except prevention, there is no cure for diabetes. In view of this we want to create more awareness among the public and provide constant care to prevent diabetes from becoming a constant worry.

The free screening will involve random blood sugar checkups for an entire year which began from November 10, 2015 and will continue till ‘World Diabetes Day’ next year (November 14, 2016).

Early detection of diabetes is always the key to make diabetes- disease free. In order to endow Hyderabadis with the much needed support and information about diabetes, Apollo Sugar endeavours to connect with people across different localities in the city through its diabetes detection drive. Patients can visit Apollo Sugar Clinic or watch out for these mobile vans in Secunderabad, Jubilee Hills, Nizampet, for a free blood sugar test. Apollo Sugar has a range of value added services to offer that makes it easy for diabetics to follow a regime prescribed by the doctors, nutritionists and physiotherapist. To call or to know about screening vans, patients can call 18605001066, toll free number.
