We run mobile clinics in the remote rural regions of Chhattisgarh and Telangana. In our mobile clinics, we have seen women walking twenty-thirty kilometers just to seek antenatal and postnatal care, these are essential and lifesaving services for children as well as for women.

Even though our treatment is free, people need to be assured that they will be taken care of and live life the way they used to. The doctors give medicines and treat our patients but my work is to make people feel hope and show them that a normal life is possible.

Sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) is extremely stigmatised and hidden in most societies. Shame, fear, stigma and many other obstacles prevent many victims from receiving, or even seeking, treatment, even though immediate medical and psychosocial care after sexual assault is critical in order to limit the potential consequences. This is precisely what we are trying to do— to make people aware of the medical consequences of SGBV and provide free and timely care to those who need it.

I don’t know much about MSF’s work across the world but I am extremely happy that my grandchild is now cured of malnutrition. That is because of the MSF team. My granddaughter was stunted and would fall ill often, but with proper medicines and care she has gained weight and her health has improved.

I was very scared when I found out, because I had never heard of hepatitis C. Some people scare you by spreading misinformation. But I am cured now, and I tell everyone there is no point getting scared. Everyone should get themselves tested. And if they have hepatitis C, they should get it treated.

A daily Amikacin injection would cost me Rs.150. The other medicines were also costly. So most of my salary would be spent on these medicines. Here at the MSF clinic, I get all the medicines I need free of cost.
