Date: October 22, 2025
In recognition of his academic excellence and clinical expertise, Assistant Prof Dr. Asghar Ali Safi (Neurosurgery) has been promoted to the position of Associate Professor at Mardan Medical Complex (MMC/BKMC).
This promotion is a testament to Dr. Asghar's dedication and hard work in the field of Neurosurgery.
A formal notification in this regard was issued by the Dean/CEO Office MTI BKMC/MMC Mardan. The notification reads that the promotion is based on the recommendations of the Departmental Promotion Committee and Institutional Promotion Committee, in accordance with Policy Board regulations.
As a Neurosurgeon, Dr Asghar Safi has demonstrated exceptional clinical skills, academic excellence and a commitment to delivering high-quality patient care. He has been working as Assistant Professor of Neurosurgery in the institution since February 2017. He has also done a fellowship in Endoscopic Skull Base surgery, which is a minimally invasive procedure that uses a thin, lighted tube called an endoscope to access and remove tumors and lesions at the base of the skull, often through the nose. This approach can treat a wide range of conditions, including pituitary tumors, cerebrospinal fluid leaks, and certain types of cancer. Compared to traditional surgery, it avoids external incisions, leading to shorter hospital stays, reduced blood loss, and faster recovery times .
The promotion letter was handed over to Dr Asghar in a ceremony held at the Dean Office in BKMC.
The MMC management, his colleagues and staff extends their warmest congratulations to Dr. Asghar on his well-deserved promotion. This achievement is a reflection of his tireless efforts and dedication to his profession and we wish him continued success and best of luck in his future endeavors.
