Dr. Suchana Marahatta completed her MD Dermatology in 2013 from B P Koirala Institute of Health Sciences. She believes on patient-centered, ethical and evidence based care. After 15 years of experience in Dermatology, she realized that it is not possible to have a better skin health without reaching into the heart of community. Limiting our services within the hospital walls are not sufficient to have \u201cHealthy skin for all\u201d. Hence she decided to approach the community through targeted health camps, educational outreach programs, and awareness campaigns. Breaking stigma, and promoting skin confidence is also equally important in our part of the world. So, she decided to carry both together. With various national and international supports, she had completed community awareness program like: awareness on tinea infection among the factory workers in eastern Nepal; awareness on sexually transmitted diseases among the school children. She had also organized free health camps for school children in many public schools. She has been actively promoting awareness on skin health through various social media.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
