Health in Pakistan,
like everywhere else in the world, has become a complex issue.
We are working in an environment where a majority is deprived of basic human
necessities, let alone healthcare. Complexity of the healthcare provision has
multiplied since healthcare has merged with many areas of civilized living like
awareness, education, environment and microeconomics etc. No one can think of
providing healthcare without addressing the aforesaid aspects of social life.
I am
profoundly thankful to
Almighty for blessing us with vision and
courage to understand and take up the demands of changing scenario in Pakistan's
health sector.
Quality is the value that founders of Shifa set as a policy
principle, one and a half decade ago, when idea of a quality healthcare center
like Shifa International was conceived. With this very concept in mind we
started our journey. It took us extensive brainstorming, consistent
implementation and swift execution. It kept us alert and awake. But it's what we
take pride in. Shifa International is one and only hospital in northern part of
the country where quality medical care and patient satisfaction is our top
priority.
As a responsible corporate body we have a three fold
objective. We have set for ourselves a goal to excel in healthcare economics,
social and environmental performance. We have brought possible best in
healthcare to the country and will continuously be on our toes to improve it.
Our patients enjoy the world class healthcare and need not fly abroad for
quality anymore. We have the biggest number of US qualified and highly
experienced consultants in different specialties. From mere OPD consultation to
complicated surgical procedures to state of the art diagnostic facilities, we
are delivering each and every qualitative service under one roof. We are
bringing latest healthcare mechanism in country helped check outflow of precious
foreign exchange.
Simultaneously, we are also keen about fulfilling our
corporate social responsibilities
(CSRs) through putting our share to improve community
health services and uproot illiteracy. And this we are doing with efficient and
effective network of our 'Social Arms'.
