Dr Tariq Khan
‘Dr Tariq Khan’ is an inspiring young doctor who is presently working with Mumbai’s Baba Hospital. He recently secured admission in MD Radiology. Tariq was 13 when he was diagnosed with spinal cord infection which resulted in both his legs being paralysed. However, he did not let this disability come in the way of achieving his dream of becoming a doctor. He gives full credit for his achievements to his dad who stood by him in times of crisis and adversity like a pillar of strength.
