Dear Friends be witness…..
Currently Geriatric Medicine Is No Where In Pakistan.
I am not sure , we may have 2-3 Geriatric Consultants working in PvT setups … but as a whole we don’t have any separate Geriatric Department in any hospital ..
I really think it’s a need of time to invest our time and energy into this project.
Start creating awareness … let’s start rolling this ball….Inshallah In next 5- 10 years time we may be able to change things the way we changed in Emergency Medicine..
Alhamdulliah I am glad Allaha Has given me this opportunity to launch first ever academic platform for Geriatric Medicine In Pakistan.
Help and support this project.. it’s your project
It’s your parents project… it’s Pakistan Project
