Biography

Dr. Sumaiya Begum is a psychiatrist working with depression, anxiety disorders, panic attacks, insomnia, and stress-related conditions. She also supports families managing a relative’s long-term mental illness, which is often where the least help is available and the most is needed.

She is direct about the fact that seeking mental health care still carries stigma in much of Bangladesh, and structures her practice around that reality. Video consultation lets patients speak from somewhere they feel safe, and nothing about a Care Bangla consultation is disclosed to anyone but the patient.
