Department of Neurosurgery

Department of Neurosurgery of Allama Iqbal Medical College at Jinnah Hospital, Lahore is a leading centre for neurosurgical patient care, postgraduate training and research. It has emerged to be a prominent institute of excellence in a very short span of time, rapidly grown to become a top-notch center in terms of patient care, teaching and clinical research. Our main area of pride has been the development of the Neurosurgery driven Neurocritical Care Unit. It has profoundly influenced the outcome in patients of severe traumatic brain injury. We are a level 1 trauma center serving a wide geographical area. Another distinguishing feature is the state of the art operation theater suite, fully equipped with all the modern neurosurgical tools. Among many of them the hall marks are the facilities such as our intraoperative CT scan and Neurosimulation for training of our residents ( the only department in the country to have either of these).

We have a patient centered approach and our motto is ‘WE CARE’. We prepare them for the life ahead and educate their families about the disease and long-term requirements. Our compassion and empathy are stoked by the fact that a vast majority of our patients are from the under privileged section of the society. We believe in fostering a collaborative, multidisciplinary approach, and delivering to patients the best possible experiences and outcomes.
