What I'm looking for

I’m looking to match into a U.S. residency where I can grow as a practicing physician while continuing research and evidence-based clinical writing, supported by strong teamwork, mentorship, and patient-centered learning in a demanding care environment.

I am a final-year MBBS student actively participating in research and extracurricular activities, pursuing my USMLE journey alongside my medical education. I aim to match into a residency program and build my career as a practicing physician in the United States, bringing strong teamwork, group communication, critical thinking, and the ability to work efficiently in demanding healthcare environments.

I’ve designed and executed a structured cross-sectional study on Text Neck Syndrome and presented the abstract at the Shifa Scholars Day. I also contribute to peer-reviewed and academic work through a published Letter to the Editor, and I support clinical scholarship through case report work, while strengthening my internal medicine foundation through an Aga Khan University online course. I additionally volunteer in humanitarian medical camps and lead youth-focused tobacco control initiatives, which sharpen my adaptability, resilience, and patient-centered communication.
