Syed Zafar Haider: Custodian of a Tradition; A Class Act

Abstract

My association with Sayyed Zafar Haider spans almost half a century.

I feel particularly fortunate that in all those years he enriched my life with his kindness, mentorship and role modeling. I was admitted in Nishtar Medical College in 1967. Coming from the backwaters of the remotest district of Punjab, Rahim Yar Khan, his influence has guided my professional and intellectual growth in many subtle and obvious ways. Shah Ji, as SZH was affectionately called by his disciples, has transformed lives of countless students and residents who were fortunate enough to be touched by him.
