Making Specialized Care Accessible:
The Dhule Neuro Camp
Access to pediatric neurological care is often limited in rural regions. To bridge this gap, Dr. Pawar leads initiatives like the Dhule Neuro Camp, where his team provides free consultations, diagnosis, and treatment to children in underserved areas.
These camps are designed to reach children who may not otherwise have access to neurological expertise. Each child is given time, attention, and personalized care—whether they are dealing with seizures, developmental delays, or movement disorders. By taking these services directly to communities in need, Dr. Pawar is committed to transforming lives through accessibility and compassion.
