Prioritizing Preventive Care: Panel Discussion at AM Medical Centre Explores Urban Health Challenges at New Facility Launch

Kolkata, April 14: The growing importance of health and wellbeing in  fast-paced urban and professional environment took center stage at a panel discussion organized at Infinity Think Tank, Sector V, Salt Lake, marking the inauguration of AM Medical Centre’s new facility.

The session featured Dr. Moon Chattaraj, Director, AM Medical Centre, and psychologist Sneha Dey, alongside distinguished guests including industrialist R. S. Goenka, actress Richa Sharma, Rabindra Chamaria, Chairman & MD of Infinity Group, Sutirtha Bhattacharya, Chairman of WEBEL, and filmmaker Arindam Sil.

The discussion addressed rising concerns around workplace stress, lifestyle disorders, and the critical importance of early diagnosis. Speakers emphasized that access to healthcare within professional hubs like Sector V is no longer a convenience, but a necessity.

Dr. Moon Chattaraj said,

“Sector V has thousands of professionals working under intense schedules, and they certainly need easier access to healthcare. But our vision goes beyond just corporate wellness. This centre is open to everyone whether it is a professional working nearby, a family living in the neighbourhood, or anyone seeking reliable medical care. Our goal is to create a space where people feel comfortable coming in early, seeking advice, and taking better care of their health.”

Guest of Honour R. S. Goenka noted,

“Cities today are expanding rapidly, and with that comes new pressures on people’s health and lifestyles. Facilities like this are important because they make healthcare accessible within the everyday spaces where people work and live. Encouraging timely medical care and preventive check-ups is essential for building a healthier, more productive society.”

Rabindra Chamaria added,

“Health is something people often take seriously only after problems arise. What we really need is a shift towards prevention and awareness. Centres like this play an important role in making healthcare approachable and encouraging people to seek guidance before issues become serious.”

The newly inaugurated AM Medical Centre facility is strategically located in Sector VKolkata’s premier IT and business district—home to thousands of professionals working under demanding schedules. Designed to make quality healthcare more accessible, the centre offers a comprehensive range of services including consultations, diagnostics, and preventive care.

While its location makes it particularly convenient for corporate employees, the facility is equally accessible to the broader community, including nearby residents, students, and families. Whether it is a quick consultation between meetings or routine health check-ups, the centre aims to bridge the gap between busy lifestyles and timely healthcare.

By fostering a culture of preventive care and early diagnosis, AM Medical Centre’s Sector V facility marks a significant step toward building a more accessible and health-conscious ecosystem in Kolkata.
