SP Lahore History

Surgeons of Lahore organized an association in the early 50's to discuss and share their clinical and operative experience with their colleagues. Anesthetists, Pathologists and radiologists were made associate members of that body of surgeons called association of surgeons of Lahore. In early 80's this association was revived under the convenorship of Prof. Bashir Ahmad, one of the life members of the past association of surgeons of Lahore.

An election was conducted after a membership drive and professor Ijaz Ahsan was elected as president, professor Riaz Ahsan Siddique as general secretary and Dr. Saeed Choudhary as finance secretary. The association organized a few clinical meetings but because of the diverse background of its members including surgeons from all the specialties this association did not continue its activities.
