Comprehensive Care for Your Stomach, Liver, Digestive and Metabolic Health
If you have been dealing with stomach issues, acidity, liver issues, or any other gut problem that just will not go away, you need a specialist who actually understands what is going on inside, not just someone who hands you a prescription and sends you home.
Meet Dr. Shafqat Rasool
Dr. Shafqat Rasool is a gastroenterologist and hepatologist with a career built around one simple goal: helping people deal with gut and liver problems properly, the first time. He completed his MBBS from King Edward Medical University and went on to earn his FCPS in Gastroenterology from the College of Physicians and Surgeons Pakistan, where he was honoured with the Prof. Ghias UN Nabi Tayyab Gold Medal for his performance. He later trained further in Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS) at the WEO International School of EUS in South Korea, a skill that very few gastroenterologists in Pakistan have.
20+ Years of Hands On Experience
Dr. Shafqat Rasool has been working in gastroenterology for 20+ years, moving up through every stage of training and practice at Lahore General Hospital and PGMI, one of the busiest gastroenterology units in the country. Today he holds the position of Associate Professor of Gastroenterology and Hepatology there, looking after patients in the wards, the outpatient clinics, and the endoscopy suite on a daily basis.
Over the years he has treated thousands of patients dealing with issues such as:
He is also well versed in advanced procedures including ERCP, double balloon enteroscopy, EUS guided biopsies, and liver biopsies, which means complicated cases that other clinics may refer elsewhere can often be handled right here.
