﷽

I am Dr. Tariq Mahmood Mian President Academy of Family Physicians Pakistan with just a few words about Academy of Family Physicians Pakistan. Its founder was Dr Bashir A Malik who initiated CME programs at his private hospital with  very few members at the beginning but gradually the number increased day by day.
We salute our hero Dr Bashir A Malik who really did a great job. He thought that the family physicians were not equiped with Continuous Medical Education & medical knowledge which is changing day by day. So according to his vision he started CME programmes at very small level at his clinic but later on when people realised 0the importance of CME they joined Academy of Family Physicians Pakistan in large numbers.

  • To uplift the status of general practice and the doctors by professional, social, and ethical training through social get to gathers and mutual learning.
  • To lend the hands of the government in disasters and outbreaks. For example PAFP was one of the very few organizations who reached first to help earth quack and flood victims by supplying drugs, food and medical aid. During recent Dengue fever out break we trained hundreds of doctors to treat this deadly disease which helped thousands of patients and thus eased away the health care burden from the government.
  • To lend the hands of the government in various health programs like T.B DOTS, Family planning, Immunization and polio eradication programs etc.
