Sehat Kahani
Sehat Kahani is co-founded by Dr. Sara Saeed Khurram and Dr. Iffat Zafar. The aim behind establishing such a platform was to make health care services available to the local masses. This e-clinic platform saves people from the hassle that they have to endure at a hospital. Through virtual doctor assistance, Sehat Kahani curbs the spread of diseases in communities where medical assistance is not within peopleβs reach.

Recently, Sehat Kahani and Pakistan railway has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU). According to the agreement, Sehat Kahani will provide health care facilities to all the retired and current employees of the Pakistan railway along with their families. Moreover, the passengers will also be provided with health care services. Never before we have seen such a private-public partnership where such a large number of people are being catered to provide medical assistance.
