About Us
Doc Paper Scissors is dedicated to bridging the gap in medical care by repurposing surplus medical equipment and donating it to under-resourced healthcare providers in developing countries. We aim to improve global healthcare equity, reduce waste, and empower medical professionals to deliver life-saving care where it’s needed most.
Long Term Vision
Doc Paper Scissors envisions a world where no functional medical equipment goes to waste and where global healthcare providers have the tools they need to save lives. By building an ecosystem of resource sharing, we aim to contribute to a more equitable global healthcare system, one donation at a time.
