Abstract | An unforgettable summer elective in the heart of Pakistan, discovering the specialities of internal medicine at the state-of-the-art cancer centre-Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital and Research Centre (SKMCHRC). Cancer incidence and mortality are rising across the world, forcing medical research to find new and better treatments, all the time. The SKMCHRC is the only charity-funded cancer centre providing free treatment for anyone diagnosed with cancer in Pakistan. It is definitely the beginning of a new future for cancer patients in Pakistan, giving them a chance for a better quality of life, even those in poverty. Just like this, there are many appreciations and memories from my uplifting clinical experience at SKMCHRC. |
