US-based Pakistani physicians earn praise

WASHINGTON:

Pakistan’s Ambassador to the US Masood Khan has commended the contribution of the Association of Physicians of Pakistani Descent of North America (APPNA) towards the uplift of Pakistan’s health, education and economic sectors, with a call for unity among Pakistani diaspora as their motherland fends off challenges.

He was addressing AAPNA’s annual convention — the 46th in the series which began in 1976– as it concluded in Dallas, Texas, on Sunday night, according to a press release of the Pakistani embassy released on Monday. Thousands of Pakistani doctors participated in the week-long convention.
