KARACHI: President Dr. Arif Alvi on Monday while holding doctors responsible for the lack of creating awareness among the patients, said that the doctors were more focused on curative medicines instead of preventive advices.
He said that the onus was on the doctors to bridge information gap to overcome health challenges including mental health and breast cancer being faced by the patients in almost every house of the country.
He stated this while addressing a programme titled ‘Spirit of Female Enterpreneurship and Medical Leadership’ organized by Sehat Kahani at a local hotel here.
President Alvi said that Information Techology (IT) and Artificial Intelligence (IA) were the modern tools to deal with health challenges.
He said that no solution was possible without them.
‘Every house is going under mental stress,’ he said adding that it was the responsibility of the doctors to educate their patients about preventive measures. –Agencies
