Facebook public profile : Dr.Fatima Qureshi MD (Pakistan) ODCombining my medical training in internal medicine and general surgery with eye diseases and eye surgeries.I attended medical school at Dow Medical college in Pakistan with clinical honors and then went for my second doctorate degree at an accelerated doctor of optometry program ( MD/OD) at New England college of optometry in Boston , MA. This program was designed specially for foreign trained physicians ( MDs) . I’m extremely thankful to God that I got accepted in this highly competitive accelerated program in which only 7 physicians were selected from all over the world !!! I finished all my internships in Boston with clinical honors . I had the privilege of getting trained by some of the best and well known doctors from both Harvard Medical school as well as MIT professors . Later , I went for more advanced training in eye surgeries at North Eastern state university in Oklahoma . I love treating ocular diseases and performing eye surgeries . My passion lies in being accessible to my patients and making them feel comfortable and at ease when they come see their primary eyecare provider. With my knowledge and training in internal medicine and general surgery, I feel I have that advantage of seeing the big picture and treating eye pathologies through the systemic disease approach . Patients love the fact that their doctor 👩🏻‍⚕️ has a dual doctorate degree 😊
