What I'm looking for

I am seeking an entry-level pharmacist role in a patient-focused, collaborative healthcare team with hands-on clinical responsibilities, mentorship, and opportunities for professional growth and impact.

I am a Doctor of Pharmacy graduate from COMSATS University Islamabad with strengths in drug therapy knowledge, regulatory compliance, and quality assurance. My final-year project studied the pharmacotherapy of stroke, where I collected and analyzed patient data to assess treatment efficacy.

I interned as a sales assistant at PNS Shifa, Karachi, gaining hands-on experience in patient counseling, compounding, and pharmacy operations. I also completed traineeships in RCM and project management at Cube Health Care and am eager to apply my analytical skills and patient-centered approach in a clinical or community pharmacy role.
