In the event that they require more advanced diagnostic procedures, surgery or hospitalization, they are referred to Welcare Hospital - the secondary and tertiary care facility within our network," said Dr. Sumedha Sahni, Director Quality Assurance and Head of Satellite Centers, Welcare World Health Systems.
