About Dr. Rabbia

Hi, I'm Dr. Rabbia Ahmed. I completed my MBBS at Islamabad Medical and Dental College in Islamabad, Pakistan, followed by my medical internship at Dr. Akbar Niazi Teaching Hospital, also in Islamabad.

I went on to work as a Women's Medical Officer at Moosa Memorial Hospital in Attock, Pakistan, where I served as a primary point of care for women in the community. Today, I'm continuing my training as an FCPS (Fellowship of the College of Physicians and Surgeons) trainee in Ophthalmology at Shifa Eye Trust Hospital, Pakistan — broadening my clinical skills while staying grounded in the same commitment to patient care that shaped my early years in medicine.
