Chairman Message:
” I joined the department of Anesthesia KMC/KTH in June 2000 as Senior Registrar which was the start of any teaching career and since then I am practicing anesthesia and critical care, till date as a Chairman of Anesthesia.
In the early days, I had a lot of difficulties regarding safe anesthesia cover in terms of staff and equipment. Gradually with the passage of time we progressed by overcoming these limitations by providing conducive working environment to the patients, staff & trainees and offered them all kind of support. At present, I am proud that I have a full faculty and other supporting staff for the provision of safe anesthesia and managing critical patients in the Surgical ICU.
Regarding academics, we have a weekly CPC in our department in which all the consultants and trainees participate. Also under the umbrella of PSA-KP, we arranged a workshop on Critical Care recently in October 2018 and actively participated in the 1st International Critical Care and 2nd Anesthesia Conference in November 2018 at PC Peshawar.
I hope that with the passage of time our department will become exemplary for the rest of the institutions in terms of faculty, trainees and patient care.
May Almighty Allah continue to guide us in delivering services to mankind at our best”
