Doing the honours: Simi Garewal inaugurates the clinic as Dr Mukesh Batra (right) looks on

Dr Batra opened the world's first tele-homeopathic clinic on Wednesday.

Tele-Homeopathy involves providing medical consultation and data through an easily accessible telecommunication network (verbal and visual).

It enables connectivity between the patient, consulting doctor and specialist through interactive video conferencing with critical information and reports of the patient being available online.

"It has been our endeavour to provide the best possible treatment to our patients. Through Tele-Homeopathy, we ensure that our patients get the finest medical aid that is both time and cost-effective," said Dr Mukesh Batra.
