“We know that after the pandemic, Kuwait has a shortage of doctors and nurses. I would like to thank the Kuwaiti government for trusting us. Our doctors and nursing staff are professional, competent, and have vast experience. Pakistan sends the best doctors from the best of its hospitals. We are happy that the people of Pakistan are offering their services to their friends and brothers in Kuwait,” Malik Farooq said.
