The idea of Shifa International Hospital was conceived by a team of expatriate healthcare professionals in 1985 in New York, USA. Their objective was to provide international standard medical care to patients in Pakistan. After much discussion, it was decided to begin this project in Islamabad, the capital city of Pakistan. In 1987, the Hospital was incorporated as a Private Limited Company and then later converted into a Public Limited Company as the only hospital listed on Pakistan Stock Exchange. SHIFA was officially opened in 1993, with 8 OPD Clinics & 36 beds. Now after two and a half decades, Shifa International Hospital proudly stands as a leading symbol of quality healthcare with its own brand name SHIFA. This short time span bears witness to the sheer dedication and devotion of its consultants, management and staff who worked round the clock to make SHIFA a reality.
