About Prof. Col. Dr. Obaidur Rahaman Shah (Retd.)

Standing under the brutal midday sun at the Kanchpur bridge bakes the skin right off your neck. Traffic wardens wear heavy polyester uniforms while directing endless lines of cargo trucks. Sweat pools under their tight collars and stays there for entire shifts. A painful red rash often develops across the upper back and shoulders. Men ignore the severe itching because leaving their post means a massive traffic jam will paralyze the city. They buy cheap cooling powders from random street vendors during their short tea breaks. Those fake chemicals just burn the raw skin even more. The rash eventually turns into thick bleeding patches that ruin their sleep completely. Prof Col Dr Obaidur Rahaman Shah Retd brings absolute military discipline to these stubborn physical conditions. He is a retired Colonel and a Professor of Dermatology. His medical journey carries immense authority and international recognition. He earned his MBBS and then mastered skin diseases by securing a DDV and an FCPS. He pushed his clinical expertise across borders to achieve an MRCP. You will find him treating patients at Popular Diagnostic Center Ltd in Narayangonj. The exhausted traffic warden finally visits the chamber hiding his bleeding neck under a cotton scarf. Dr Obaidur Rahaman Shah approaches the examination with the sharp eye of a military commander. He does not judge the man for using fake street medicines. He knows that field workers look for the cheapest quick fix available. Army doctors know exactly how harsh outdoor environments and heavy gear destroy the human skin barrier. He examines the angry red patches under a bright light and spots the deep fungal infection immediately. A veteran professor knows how to give clear instructions. He grabs a blank notepad and draws a simple sketch of the skin layers. He explains how the trapped sweat and cheap powder fed the bacteria. He writes down a strict daily hygiene routine. He prescribes a strong healing ointment. He tells the warden to wear a soft cotton towel under his uniform collar to absorb the moisture. He speaks with a firm voice that makes the patient take the medical advice seriously. Forcing a man with burning skin onto a crowded bus heading to the capital is pure torture. The heat and dust from the Dhaka highway make the itching completely unbearable. Having a highly qualified military dermatologist right in the neighborhood is a massive blessing. The family can get a proper diagnosis locally. The warden can buy the right medicine and start healing without losing a whole day of wages on a long trip. Follow up visits to check the healing progress become a simple walk down the street. A clear complexion lets a disciplined man wear his uniform with true pride.
