About

Hello, I’m Sahar.

I studied MBBS at Bahria University Medical and Dental College (BUMDC) in Karachi and did my clinical rotations at PNS Shifa Hospital. After graduating, I worked as an intern at PNS Shifa in paediatric surgery and gynaecology, and then spent a year as a house officer at Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Centre, working in emergency, medicine, surgery and orthopaedics. In July 2026 I passed FCPS Part 1 in Medicine and Allied.

I enjoy working closely with patients and being part of a busy ward team, and I want to keep learning and growing as a doctor.
