Who is  Dr Jawad? A British surgeon from Pakistani origin who has not forgotten that he once studied thanks to the efforts of the Pakistani nation, and who would like to come and contribute to the welfare of his people.

He is also the magician who rebuilt Katie Piper’s face, the British model and TV animator who got raped and attacked with acid by her ex boy friend, in England.

Dr Jawad made a quick detour to Islamabad to visit PIMS burn center facility and his head, Dr Tariq Iqbal, and he finally came to visit Acid Survivors Foundation Nursing Care and Rehabilitation Unit and selected relevant patients for the surgical camp.

The objective of such camps are to provide free experts

surgery and share competences, skills and build others.
