Hrachya Kyureghyan

Armenian doctor Hrachya works in Osch, Kyrgyzstan on the MSF project for treating drug-resistant tuberculosis. Patients suffering from this form of the disease must undergo lengthy treatment and deal with severe side effects.

This means that Hrachya needs to approach his work with a lot of empathy and persuasiveness in order to encourage patients to persevere with their treatment. His biggest motivation is that people who successfully finish their treatment can then go on to enjoy a good quality of life.
