I take this opportunity to re-affirm my
faith in the educated youth of Pakistan, as
the future of Pakistan actually lies in
their hands. Our vision of an enlightened
and progressive Pakistan can never
materialize until we manage to bring about
much needed improvements in our education
system particularly in the field of
medicine. Viewed in this perspective,
Private Medical College and Universities
have an important role to play, as the
entire responsibility of providing quality
education cannot be shouldered by the Public
Sector alone. Lahore Medical and Dental
College, Lahore has been established with
the aim to live up to the standards of
medical education and to compete at National
and International levels. To meet the
requirements, the college is housed in a
purpose built compound providing all the
bio-medical and technical facilities for
imparting training in the technical skills
required by a medical and dental
graduate.
Another important area of interest in the
college is continued medical educational
programmes in which the college and the
attached Hospitals arrange seminars,
conferences, and on-hand skill programmes.
The various special workshops are organized
by University of Health Sciences and the
college of Physicians and Surgeons which are
attended by our teaching staff and the
students. There is a full fledged
traditional library along with a
computer-based online digital library with
an access to more than 17,000 online
journal/magazines. This facility is provided
by the University of Health Sciences through
Digital library programme of HEC (Higher
Educational Commission) to enable the
students and staff of this institution to
down load needed literature/information. The
college is recognized by Pakistan Medical
and Dental Council and is affiliated with
the University of Health Sciences, Lahore.
College of Physicians and surgeons of
Pakistan has recognized this institution for
imparting training to FCPS trainees in
various medical and dental specialties.
PMDC has also given recognition to this
institution to train BDS and MBBS graduates
as House officers.
Apart from the
well-organized Academic activities all the
literary and sports extra-curricular
activities are taking place here. It gives
me pleasure to inform that the College has
held its 1st Convocation and has awarded
degrees to 60 MBBS Graduates and 67 BDS
Graduates. The outstanding students also
received 112 Gold Medals and 113 Silver
Medals. The distinctions in various subjects
by University of Health Sciences, Lahore,
were given to 7 students. There were 186
students who got distinctions in the College
examination in various subjects, while 98
students received the merit certificates by
obtaining positions in various subjects.
Three of our students had received
University position by standing 1st in 3rd
Prof. MBBS, 2nd in Final Prof. MBBS and 3rd
in 1st Prof. MBBS (Part-I). This is because
of the hard work put up by the students who
are continuously being guided and trained by
a very experienced and dedicated team of
Faculty members.
MAY THE ALMIGHTY BLESS YOU IN
ALL OF YOUR LIFETIME NOBLE ENDEAVORS.
