Aster Volunteers, the global CSR arm of Aster DM Healthcare, has expanded
its community outreach footprint with the launch of 5 Mobile Medical Units (MMUs) in Bengaluru. The
additions mark a total of 76 units in the global fleet of Aster Volunteers Mobile Medical Services and 54
units in India. The CAPEX has been facilitated by Aster Volunteers through Aster DM Foundation, with
operational collaboration from Thanal (Daya Rehabilitation Trust) and Malabar Gold & Diamonds
Charitable Trust, ensuring strong community integration and long-term sustainability of healthcare
access initiatives. The units will be deployed to Ranchi, Kanpur, Bhopal, Jaipur and Bhubaneshwar,
aiming to reach urban poor and most vulnerable communities including street dwellers, slum
population, elderly and homeless. Earlier Aster Volunteers in partnership with Thanal had deployed 5
units in Chennai, Bangalore, Mumbai, Patna and Kolkata.

The mobile medical units were flagged off Dr. Azad Moopen, Founder & Chairman, Aster DM
Healthcare; Ms. Alisha Moopen, Deputy Managing Director, Aster DM Healthcare; Mr. Abdul Nazer,
Trustee, Daya Rehabilitation Trust (Thanal); and Mr. Filsor Babu, Regional Head Karnataka, Malabar
Group & Malabar Charitable Trust leadership from Aster DM Healthcare.

Speaking on the launch of five mobile units, Dr. Azad Moopen, Founder & Chairman, Aster DM
Healthcare, said, “The launch of the Mobile Medical Units reflects our continued commitment to
ensuring that quality healthcare reaches communities where it is needed the most. By taking essential
medical services directly to people, this initiative seeks to strengthen last-mile access through preventive
screening, early diagnosis and timely intervention. These units are more than mobile clinics; they
represent a step toward advancing equitable healthcare and addressing critical gaps in access.”
On partnering with Aster for the roll out of mobile medical units, Mr. M.P Ahammed, Chairman,
Malabar Group said, “We are proud to associate with Aster Volunteers and Thanal in advancing a shared
vision to accessible healthcare for underserved communities. The continued expansion of this mobile
medical fleet is a strong reflection of the trust, synergy, and long-term commitment between our
organizations. Our focus remains on ensuring operational sustainability and meaningful community
impact. Together, we are building a model of care that reaches the streets, restores dignity, and
strengthens lives.”

The mobile medical units will support free primary consultations, non-communicable disease (NCD)
screening, maternal and child health services, health education, and referrals for advanced care. All
units are equipped with medical-grade interiors and are designed to deliver safe and efficient care.
Guided by its commitment to accessible and affordable healthcare, Aster through Aster Volunteers and
its medical outreach initiatives continues to bring essential and advanced medical services closer to

communities with limited access to care. These efforts are focused on addressing persistent healthcare
gaps by providing timely, preventive and community-oriented medical support, reinforcing Aster’s long
term vision of advancing equitable and inclusive healthcare for all.
