In order to mitigate the criticality of inadequate availability of specialized medical manpower, veteran defense doctors have come forward answering the call of the nation to provide free online consultation services on the e-Sanjeevani platform. This will help on making the invaluable experience of veteran defence medical professionals available to fellow citizens of the country.
All citizens are urged to utilize this unique facility by logging on to esanjeevaniopd.in.

Initially available for Uttar Pradesh, it was extended to Rajasthan on 10 May and Uttarakhand on 11 May as more veteran defense volunteer doctors came onboard. As of today, 85 veteran defense doctors are providing their services on the portal and have provided online consultation to more than 1000 patients.
