Sewa Kendra Team

Sewa Kendra was founded by Dr. Hira Mana Pradhan (shortly Dr. Pradhan), senior Dermatologist, Venerologist and Leprologist, who has worked for 3 decades in this sector. She began her career with the Government of Nepal Leprosy Control Division and after serving for almost a decade, she decided to open her own hospital, primarily to reach out to the most marginalized communities of the country, deprived from the mainstream health services. Dr. Pradhan leads a lean and efficient team of 2 doctors (one part time physician), six nurses, one physio-technician, one lab technician, one admin officer, one driver-cum-store assistant and one house mother.

This small team has been managing a range of facilities and services in support of the leprosy-affected and destitute people to be described below. Occasionally, the organization also receives short-term services of visiting medical interns, doctors and nurses; both national and international.
