By using this facility thousands of patients are getting benefited every day by avoiding unnecessary travel, saving time & best treatment at proper time.
The first Pan-Asian Neuro Conference was conducted in March 2001 which was the first of its kind in INDIA connecting 4 countries - JAPAN, Hong Kong, Singapore & India-SRMC, Chennai.
