What I'm looking for

I am looking for a specialized surgical program that fosters growth and collaboration.

I am a dedicated surgical resident with a strong foundation in general surgery, currently honing my skills at the Sindh Institute of Urology and Transplantation in Karachi. My experience encompasses comprehensive patient assessments, surgical interventions, and postoperative care for diverse patient populations. I pride myself on my ability to work effectively in high-pressure environments, demonstrating adaptability and a commitment to delivering exceptional patient-centered care.

Throughout my residency, I have gained valuable experience in various surgical specialties, including general surgery, hepato-biliary, breast, and colorectal procedures. My rotations in orthopedic surgery, urology, plastic surgery, and neurosurgery have further enriched my clinical skills and broadened my understanding of surgical practices. I am eager to join a specialized surgical program where I can leverage my advanced skills in reconstructive surgery and patient management to make a positive impact.
