Medical Records

Historical medical data of all our patients are maintained in electronic form and
copies are available on request. The medical record of each patient is an
individual document, chronicling the medical treatment given, both past and
current, the past and present health of the patient, and treatment plans for the
future health care of the patient. Delivering your medical records is an
