Salam to all in RI, I am back and have brought lots of exciting news about medical systems in Pakistan, especially Karachi.

I worked at the Indus Hospital in Karachi. It is an amazing place by any standards, who are looking for people to help set up their systems and helping out with patient care. This a completely paperless hospital who serves the poor free of cost, if one cannot afford.

I am in process of setting up with them a basic AV link in the ICU so I can give them ICU coverage from RI. They could also use help from other specialities like neurology, derm, cardiology, radiology etc. Once this link is established and polished, I envision a full scale transcontinental consultative service with Indus Hospital complete with roster and on call coverage etc.

This is a very exciting opportunity to give back to the place which put us on the launch pad to where we are today. The people who run it, I have known for quite some time and one would not want a better group of dedicated people to run the show.

So if anyone is interested, please let me know. I am in it deep. Pass the word along.

Dr. Ehsun Mirza
