Save a life, save humanity
keeping individuals and opportunity alive
As attacks targeting minority Shia Muslim populations rage on in Parachinar, there are over 100 dead and 300 injured in Parachinar.
IMI Pakistan has been on ground helping for last several days in Parachinar. The political situation remains critical with demonstrations still on going.
Dr. Imdad Husain, Chief of Surgery at the DHS Parachinar is IMI coordinator for the Region who is performing miraculous work. A team of several young doctors are also assisting.
Dr. Shifaat in Hayatabad, IMI Peshawar Coordinator is an Emergency Specialist manning the local hospital where many are shifted for more critical work.
Dr. Anees, Plastic Surgery in Islamabad also alerted for specialized cases.
Lady Reading in Peshawar upgraded re trauma cases in Peshawar.
Many critical cases may be moved to Agha Khan Karachi and if that happens IMI Karachi will be coordinating that leg.
It was an excellent once in a lifetime experience. Going with IMI enables us to be treated so well and we could see so many special places.
I want to thank you all for giving me such a great opportunity to be a part of your team (in Haiti). It was a unique experience and I really enjoyed working with you all.
Thank you very much for the wonderful work you do. I have seen it first hand in Karbala during the Arbaeen camps and my son was fortunate to participate in two of the missions. I have made a donation today.
I cannot express the profound impact IMI has had on my life: from the incredible opportunity to serve on the Arbaeen Medical Mission to the insightful career guidance and special programs for Young Leaders that I’ve benefitted from!
It is an honor for me that I am a part of IMI, but why am I considering this as an honor? I was studying in Karachi (Pakistan) when my teacher told me and my friends about IMI. At first, I thought that it's somewhat related to giving free medication to those who are poor, etc. I went to the first seminar and met different medical professionals there. After few meetings, I realized that it's not just giving free medication to needy people, beside that, it is giving life to humanity
I just wanted to say thanks to everyone on this list for what proved to be a truly life-altering experience. It was terrific working with all of you, except Farhaj...But seriously, Naeema and some of my other classmates know rather well that I had allowed medical school and the residency process to make me cynical and tired. I'm happy to say though, that after a week of truly hard work, emotional challenge, and actually helping some people, I have returned home feeling refreshed and renewed. As corny as this all sounds, I'm actually excited to be a doctor again. I can't thank you all enough for that. So I'm hooked on relief work. I hope that I have more opportunities to help in situations like this, and if possible, to work with you all again.
