Skardu, Gilgit-Baltistan — Akhundian Foundation Pakistan (AFP), in coordination with the Health Department, Government of Gilgit-Baltistan, conducted free medical camps in flood-affected areas of Baltistan to provide essential healthcare services to communities impacted by the recent floods.

A team of volunteer doctors and medical professionals participated in the camps, providing free medical check-ups, consultations, and medicines to all patients who attended.

The following doctors generously volunteered their time and professional services:

Dr. Waleed – Medical Specialist

Dr. Sajid Hussain – Medical Officer

Dr. Sajid Ali – Medical Officer

Akhundian Foundation Pakistan extends its sincere appreciation to these doctors and other healthcare professionals who volunteered their valuable time and expertise to serve flood-affected families during this difficult period.

Rationale: Why These Medical Camps Matter

Natural disasters such as floods not only damage homes, roads, agricultural land, and infrastructure but also create serious public health challenges. Flood-affected communities may face injuries, infections, waterborne illnesses, skin diseases, respiratory problems, and interruptions in access to routine healthcare and essential medicines.

These challenges are particularly significant in the remote and mountainous areas of Baltistan, where damaged roads and difficult terrain can further restrict access to hospitals and healthcare facilities.

Recognizing these urgent needs, Akhundian Foundation Pakistan organized the medical camps to bring healthcare directly to affected communities. By providing free examinations, medical consultations, and necessary medicines, the Foundation sought to reduce the immediate health burden on families already struggling with the consequences of the floods.

The cooperation of the Health Department of Gilgit-Baltistan and the dedication of volunteer doctors and healthcare workers played an important role in making these medical camps possible.

Conclusion

Akhundian Foundation Pakistan remains committed to standing with the people of Baltistan during emergencies and natural disasters. The Foundation will continue working with government health authorities, medical professionals, volunteers, donors, and local communities to provide timely healthcare and humanitarian assistance to those most in need.

AFP expresses its sincere gratitude to the Health Department, Government of Gilgit-Baltistan, all volunteer doctors and medical staff, and everyone who contributed to the successful organization of these free medical camps.
