Chairperson’s Message
A development professional under whose passionate leadership, NUR-FMS has grown to encompass a complete healthcare resource providing services in healthcare, education, economic empowerment, and research. Her latest endeavor is NUR International University which is based on the vision of providing excellence in Education.
FMH College of Medicine and Dentistry, Saida Waheed FMH College of Nursing, and FMH Institute of Allied Health Sciences are part of the School of Health Sciences – Fatima Memorial System (SHS – FMS) that has evolved in pursuit of our mission to serve humanity, as one of a kind, not for profit third sector initiative, conceived and built as a national social service by the first Muslim Trust established in Pakistan. Proceeds are plowed back towards the running and development of the institution as well as towards Qarz-e-Hasna for deserving students and the care including health care of underprivileged patients at Fatima Memorial Hospital. It can be said to be a gift of the people, by the people, and for the people of Pakistan. We at the School of Health Sciences – Fatima Memorial System endeavor to establish a blend of global best practices in medical education and research. We strive to train health professionals with the capability to perform the highest form of service to humanity; the Art and Science of Healing.
Healing is not restricted to pure parts of the anatomy of the body; rather it involves the holistic framework of human existence. We believe that healing is a gift that is of universal application without discrimination based on caste, creed, color and ethnicity. Health professionals can play a leading role in healing the fractures in society by bringing about tolerance, generosity of spirit, and peaceful coexistence. We welcome and congratulate you on preferring to become part of this system where you will be trained as Medical Doctors, Dental Doctors, Nurses, and Allied Health Professionals, under one roof, as a team of knowledgeable and competent Pakistani health professionals. You walk in today, to join this remarkable institution with the commitment to practice and research, the application of medical science to cure the sick, save lives, and solve the many mysteries of THE BODY, THE MIND, AND THE SOUL.
You are to become the backbone of the health system and our future leaders to provide sustainable health outcomes for the country, the region, and the world at large. May Allah the Almighty, to whose service Fatima Memorial System is dedicated, Bless you with the ability to serve as your lead, to be outstanding professionals, and be a credit to your Alma Mater and Pakistan.
