Medical Students

We currently support 4 medical students, all of whom are studying at Patan Academy of Health Sciences in Kathmandu. Once they graduate they will work as interns at Patan Hospital in Kathamandu, before returning to work as doctors in their remote regions, where they will be bonded for 2 years. All of our students' education over the 2020/2021 academic year was severely hampered by Covid-19. All teaching was online and many had to return to their villages with very poor internet access. Many of the students found themselves helping their families and fellow villagers survive the pandemic. Cases have improved in 2022-2023 and we're proud of how our students stayed driven during this challenging time. We're happy for them as they continue their studies with restrictions lifted.

I was very happy and proud to be selected as the member of DFN. I couldn’t express my feelings, more than that my parents were so pleased to hear this good news.

I have had a dream to become a doctor and to serve the people of my home village for many years of my life. I would not be able to study for my MBBS smoothly if DFN hadn’t helped me - I am very grateful for this.
