Abstract
A study of knowledge, attitude and practice of leprosy among doctors of Bhopal has found that junior doctors had more exposure to leprology compared to all other groups. Medical college doctors had better knowledge of leprology compared to non-medical college doctors. Knowledge and attitude about leprosy among doctors were influenced by qualification, age, cultural and environmental factors. A strong association was observed between knowledge and attitude about leprosy of doctors and their practice of treating leprosy cases.
