Pakistani Doctor Waives $650,000 in Medical Bills for Cancer Patients
Posted 3 seconds ago by Ahsan Gardezi
Dr. Omar Atiq, a Pakistani national currently practicing medicine in the United States of America, has reportedly waived off $650,000 worth of medical bills as a Christmas present for patients.
Dr. Atiq is an established Professor of Medicine at the University of Arkansas and currently serves as the Chairman of the Board of Governors of the American College of Physicians.
American Magazine reported the news stating that Dr. Atiq had sent a congratulatory message to the cancer patients admitted at a cancer treatment facility that he runs, notifying them that their pending bills had been paid.
“I hope this note finds you well,” read the message.
Originally from Pakistan, Dr. Atiq had moved to Arkansas in 1991 after completing a fellowship at the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York.
In his later years, the doctor became the first non-white president of the Arkansas Medical Society in 2013 and was made chairperson-elect of the Board of Governors of the American College of Physicians in 2018.
