Hello there! Welcome to my newsletter. I’m Sapana Adhikari and I’m both an ER doctor and an artist. For over 20 years, I’ve been combining these interests in art and medicine. My two main interests are health literacy and the medical humanities.

Health literacy: I’ve recently published my first book, Diagnosketch: A visual guide to medical diagnosis for the non-medical audience. It’s a collection of 100+ simplified images to explain medical diagnoses to patients at the bedside. Check out www.diagnosketch.com or Amazon link for more information.

I’ve also been working on several projects related to health literacy. My goal is to simplify medical concepts for the non-medical audience visually. I’ll periodically share what I’m working on.

Medical humanities: I’m also very interested in the medical humanities. I paint (in oil) in the genre of Narrative Medicine. I’ll send an occasional post about the medical humanities, books, and interviews with other creatives. I’ll also share my narrative art projects and processes.
