Hospital clinical experience
One year of house job experience at DHQ Hospital, Jhang, giving practical exposure to clinical practice, patient assessment, hospital-based healthcare and multidisciplinary patient care. That early hospital experience provided the foundation for his later clinical career and continued professional development.
The tradition he practises in
Eastern Medicine — Tibb — is one of the oldest continuously practised systems of medicine in the world. It runs from the Greek physicians through the Arabic scholars who preserved and extended their work, and into the clinics of the subcontinent, where it has been taught and regulated for centuries.
Its founding idea is that the patient comes before the diagnosis. Health is treated as a balance between the body's systems and the conditions it lives in — what a person eats, how they sleep, how they move, and the stress they carry — rather than as a list of symptoms to be silenced one at a time.
In Pakistan it is a regulated profession. Practitioners qualify through recognised degree programmes and register with the National Council for Tibb under the Ministry of National Health Services, the same ministry that oversees conventional medical practice.

Clinical philosophy

Each patient receives a personalised approach designed to encourage practical, sustainable lifestyle changes and long-term health improvement.
An integrative approach to health
He combines the traditional principles of Eastern Medicine with contemporary concepts of metabolic health, gut health, nutrition and lifestyle management.
The objective is to help patients better understand their health, identify the lifestyle factors they can actually change, and develop realistic strategies for healthier living.
