Who should get Urine Haemoglobin done in Hyderabad?

Hyderabad's extreme summer heat , recorded above 45°C in Secunderabad and Uppal during April and May , combined with indoor office culture in HITEC City and Gachibowli creates high risk for kidney stone formation. The city is frequently cited by nephrologists for elevated renal calculi prevalence.
