PMDC receives WFME recognition. In a landmark development for Pakistan’s medical community, the Pakistan Medical & Dental Council (PM&DC) has achieved accreditation from the esteemed World Federation for Medical Education (WFME).
This accreditation not only signifies a significant stride in Pakistan’s medical education sector but also presents promising prospects for Pakistani doctors and medical aspirants aiming to pursue advanced training and professional practice abroad.
The accreditation, granted for a substantial tenure of 10 years, heralds a new era of opportunities for Pakistani medical graduates.
With the recognition from WFME, Pakistani doctors will find it easier to embark on postgraduate studies and practice medicine in first-world countries, including the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.
Such recognition is paramount for navigating through international licensing examinations such as the Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates (ECFMG) and the United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE).
The attainment of WFME recognition underscores the unwavering commitment of the regulatory authorities in Pakistan to uphold the highest standards of medical education within the nation.
This recognition not only validates the quality of medical education imparted in Pakistan but also ensures that Pakistani medical graduates are adequately prepared to meet the rigorous global healthcare standards prevalent in leading nations.
This commendable achievement is a testament to the collaborative efforts of various stakeholders.
The PM&DC extends its gratitude to the Minister of Health, NHS&C Secretary Health, Surgeon General, PM&DC Council members, and International Consultant on Collaboration and Recognition for their pivotal roles in securing this accreditation for Pakistan.
