The presence and continuous improvement of the physical infrastructure of the Hospital translate into the availability of most of the investigative, diagnostic and therapeutic equipment needed for the practice of modern medicine. Shifa International Hospital has state-of-the-art equipment for most of the specialties and indeed, some of the facilities available here are the only ones in the country. The laboratories of the Hospital have become the national benchmark in their field.

There is no doubting the excellence of individual teachers and though individuals make a difference, Medical Education requires that all programs meet the same standards. This is only possible if there is a system in place that ensures the desired outcomes.

It is through the rigorous application of this process that Shifa programs achieve excellence and continue to improve themselves.
