Prof. Dr. Iqbal Saifullah Khan
Chairman - Saif Healthcare Limited
For Iqbal Saifullah Khan, medicine was never simply a profession, it was a lifelong commitment to serving people with compassion, dignity, and purpose. From building a successful medical career abroad to returning home with a vision to transform healthcare in Pakistan, his journey reflects dedication not only to cardiac medicine, but also to the wellbeing of the communities he serves. A distinguished cardiologist with internationally recognized credentials, Prof. Dr. Iqbal Saifullah Khan earned certifications as Diplomate of the American Board in Cardiovascular Disease and Internal Medicine. He is also a Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians Edinburgh, the American Heart Association, and the American College of Cardiology. Over the years, he established himself as a respected name in the field of cardiology, combining clinical excellence with patient-centered care.
Despite opportunities to continue a promising global medical career, Prof. Dr. Khan chose to return to Pakistan with a greater purpose to contribute towards strengthening healthcare services in his homeland. His passion for advancing cardiac care and making quality treatment accessible to patients became the foundation of a vision that would later shape Kulsum International Hospital.
Named in honor of his mother, Kulsum International Hospital was established as a reflection of his deep respect for family values, compassion, and service to humanity. What began as a vision to create a center of excellence in healthcare, particularly in cardiac diseases and care, gradually evolved into one of Pakistan’s leading healthcare institutions.
Alongside his clinical and institutional leadership, Prof. Dr. Khan also served as Former Head of the Department of Cardiology at PIMS Islamabad, where he played an important role in mentoring future medical professionals and advancing cardiac services in the public healthcare sector.
As Chairman of Saif Healthcare Limited, Prof. Dr. Iqbal Saifullah Khan continues to guide Kulsum International Hospital with the same principles that inspired its foundation, excellence in healthcare, compassion for patients, and an unwavering commitment to serving Pakistan.
