Hi, My name is Rozina. Like most of you, I juggle many roles in my life. I am a mother of two, a volunteer, a businesswoman, a teacher, an author although most people know me as a Psychiatrist ( a Medical Doctor with a focus on Mental Health).
I love what I do. The satisfaction that I get when a person gets his/her smile back, knowing that they initially came with tears in their eyes, is indescribable. These are the moments when I feel that I am fulfilling the purpose of my life.
When I provide treatment as a Psychiatrist, I can decrease suffering for hundreds of people. As a part of the group of providers at Shifa Health, and as a Medical Director at Residence XII and as a Clinical Professor at the University of Washington, I can touch thousands of lives indirectly. Now, with this platform, I want to expand my reach to help millions of people like “you,” to prevent stress and suffering and live a healthier and happier life.
I share more on my reasons in my blog: “Why I shifted my focus from treatment to prevention.” Click below to read more about my education and professional activities.
To chase my lifelong dream of being able to impact as many people as I possibly could, I went to a Medical School at the Aga Khan
University in Pakistan. I completed my Residency in Psychiatry and Masters
in Public Health from the University of Illinois in Chicago. I received my
Board Certification from American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology, and now I continue education and maintain the certification. In addition to the formal education, I constantly learn the experiences of my life, my patients, my students, my friends, my family and my readers like you.
