Shree Bidada Sarvodaya Trust, a non-governmental voluntary organization is dedicated to serving the rural population by providing them with medical services in various fields including pediatrics, ophthalmology, dentistry, ENT, cardiology, oncology, urology, polio, orthopedics, dermatology and nephrology at no cost. The primary focus of the Trust's activities are the rural patients in Kutch and Gujarat, where most of its parts are lacking in quality medical facilities. Each year the Trust organizes free medical camps in various villages throughout Kutch by setting up outpatient department where thousands of patients are examined. Many surgeries are performed at Bidada itself during camp whereas patients requiring investigation with sophisticated instruments or supra-major surgeries are called to Bombay.
The activities of the Trust had their humble beginnings in 1975 with camps in two medical specialties - ophthalmology, dentistry. The year 1991 was the 18th successive year that the Trust has been conducting medical camps in Kutch. During this period, camps in 14 medical specialties were conducted, more than 13000 patients examined over a period of 15 days, more than 800 operations performed during the camp, and over 150 patients called to Bombay for major surgery.
A summary of the performance of camp till date (1975-1991) is given below:
