Without NABH, clinics cannot apply for CGHS or ECHS and may be excluded from future government and insurance programs.

  • Up to 15% higher CGHS/ECHS tariff rates
  • Priority consideration for corporate and insurance empanelment
  • Premium positioning for dental tourism patients

I was diagnosed with Herpes four years ago. For over two years, I relied on prescribed medications and treatments, but unfortunately, my condition continued to worsen. The flare-ups became more frequent, the discomfort increased, and even simple daily tasks became difficult to manage.Last year, out of desperation and hope, I decided to try a herbal treatment program from NaturePath Herbal Clinic. Honestly, I was skeptical at first, but within a few months of starting the program, I felt some changes. My discomfort eased, my energy levels improved, and I felt I had more control over my daily life again.It’s been a meaningful experience for me, and I feel more like myself than I have in years. This is simply my personal story. You can visit their website at www.naturepathherbalclinic.com [email protected]
