We are happy to announce that Junior Doctors Network (JDN) formed under guidelines of Dr. Bipinbhai Patel, Managing Director, PPS and Past President GSB IMA and Women Doctor Wing formed under guidance of Dr Monaben Desai, National Chairperson, WDW.

Incidence of violence on doctors are increasing day by day. IMA strongly condemns this type of incidence. Such incidence happened in B.J. Medical College, Civil Hospital, Ahmedabad, last month. Due to unity of JDN and all  residents,  Honourable  Deputy  Chief  Minister  and  Health  Minister, Shree NItinbhai Patel has came at campus and assured to take action.

Government of Gujarat introduced Vahan Akasmat Yojana last month. GSB IMA welcome and appreciate the initiatives taken by the Government of Gujarat in reducing death rate following Road Traffic  Accidents.

All  practicing  doctors  in  Gujarat  and  across  the  country,  whether  in Government/Private/Multispecialty/Corporate  Hospitals  are  voluntarily abiding by EMS law, which was also enacted on the behest of our own
doctor fraternity. We are providing Life saving emergency treatment to all accident victim without any deposits or financial expectation since many years without any compulsion on humanitarian grounds.
