Rabia Arshad, MD, FACC, Director of Echocardiography at Carient Heart & Vascular, completed her BA of Medicine and Surgery (MBBS) at The Aga Khan University Medical College in Karachi, Pakistan.

All medical subspecialities have to do with the reduction of human misery but the optimism and ambition of cardiology makes a unique field – that’s why I was motivated to become a cardiologist.
