HYDERABAD: Dr. Batra’s Positive Health Clinic Pvt. Ltd, the chain of homeopathy clinics, has launched tele-homeopathy facility to enable patients consult an array of experts from various parts of country.

The facility was launched on Thursday by Managing Director of the group Dr. Mukesh Batra and noted film/TV personality Simi Garewal.

Speaking to mediapersons through tele-homeopathy network from Mumbai, Dr. Batra informed that the videoconferencing will help link patients with consulting doctors and specialists.

Critical information like reports and medical history of the patient will be available to the specialist and the consulting doctor through the new system, he informed.

“The network will also help doctors, as it offers an opportunity to get trained and educated by experts and specialists.
