“I value the great organization and meaningful conduct of the meeting of the Indore CML Patient Support Group by The Max Foundation. The program was well-planned, very informative, and patient-centric, with much emphasis on not only the medical aspects of Chronic Myeloid Leukemia but also on the emotional, psychological, and social needs of the patients and caregivers.
These sessions amply emphasized the importance of adherence to treatment, regular monitoring, and timely testing, while simultaneously providing an open platform for the sharing of experiences and clarification of doubts through interactive discussions with medical experts. Such initiatives go a long way in empowering patients with knowledge, reducing anxiety, and leading to better long-term treatment outcomes and improved quality of life.
I would like to extend my special appreciation to Ms. Beena Narayanan, Regional Head – India, The Max Foundation, for her visionary leadership and continued commitment to patient welfare. My sincere thanks to Ms. Ashika Naik, Programme Officer, The Max Foundation, for her diligent effort in coordinating and executing the program seamlessly. I acknowledge Ms. Amruta Patidar, Trustee, Friends of Max, for her valued contribution and unwavering support in strengthening patient engagement and community outreach.
Overall, the Indore meeting stands out as an epitome of collaboration among health professionals, patient support groups, and The Max Foundation. I firmly believe and support such kinds of meaningful initiatives, which go a long way in enhancing treatment adherence, clinical outcomes, and the overall quality of life of CML patients.”
