HOD Message

As an HOD of AHS department in BIHS it is a pleasure to introduce the department of Allied Health Sciences in Bashir Institute of Health Sciences.

It is an immense honor of being the first Institute in the Capital territory of Islamabad offering 4 years Professional degree programs in wide range of Allied Health Disciplines.

It is best opportunity for the students to pursue Medical Career even after they are unable to secure admission in MBBS or BDS. In AHS students can directly opt for the field of their choice right from the beginning of the professional studies. The graduates can work both in clinical and academics.

There are many options for further education as well at the post graduate level and many fields are yet to be started.

I advise all the students to search about the scope of all the disciplines of Allied Health and educate themselves for their better future.
