This is exactly why doctors feel ignored.

When the government wants to fix one department, it finds budget, policy, and justification.

Police allowances can be revised by 100–150% because their risk and workload are accepted.

But when doctors ask for fair pay, suddenly the system remembers “financial constraints.”

Doctors are not asking for luxury. They are asking for the same logic:

Risk? Doctors face violence inside hospitals.

Workload? Doctors do 24–36 hour duties.

Inflation? Doctors also pay rent, fuel, food and fees.

Public service? Hospitals run 24/7 because doctors stay there.

So why is 15% after 3 years presented as a favour?

No one is against police getting their right.

But doctors also deserve policy, not sympathy.

Respect must be visible in salary, security and dignity.

We are calling whole doctors community across Pakistan to protest and call for boycott. Not just OPD, but even the ER yes, the ER as well. This public does not deserve it. Their mindset is such that if doctors shut down OPD, they think the ER will still function. That is why we

Every doctor who leaves due to poor pay creates a gap that patients eventually feel. Retaining skilled healthcare professionals costs less than replacing them and helps ensure better care for all. #PayRaiseForDoctors

Doctors demand dignified packages

[Dr. Rafi @DrRafi_]

Why #PayRaiseForDoctors?

Just look at one hospital: Lady Reading Hospital.

A House Officer earns 64k.
A TMO earns 77k.
A Medical Officer earns 102k.

In the same hospital, a Technician earns 80k, a Class 4 employee around 70k, and a Nurse earns 110k.

This is not against any worker. Every hospital worker deserves respect and fair pay.

But the story is simple:

The doctor who studies for years, handles emergencies, signs prescriptions, takes clinical risk, faces attendants, works night duties, and carries life-and-death responsibility is being paid like his responsibility doesn’t matter.

One hospital is enough to expose the whole problem.

This is not a luxury demand.
This is a fairness demand.
This is a patient-safety demand.

[Young Doctors Association Pakistan Official @OfficialYDAPak]

A doctor’s salary is not just a line in a budget it is a statement of how much a society values the people entrusted with protecting its health. Fair pay reflects that value. #PayRaiseForDoctors

[Dr.Shoaib Ahmad Khan @doctorshoaib688]

Anything below 50% payraise is unacceptable. If you run all hospitals on HOs/PGRs , than own them too.

[Dr Assad Ayub (YDA) @DrAssadayub_ktk]

When doctors ask for a pay raise, they are not asking to be treated differently. They are asking to be treated fairly, in line with the responsibility, expertise, and service that society expects from them every single day. #PayRaiseForDoctors

[Dr. Rafi @DrRafi_]

Yesterday, X trends were already crowded, and despite our effort we could not trend. Today the competition is even tougher, GB elections and many major issues are already dominating the trends.

So tonight we need to be more serious and coordinated.

At 09:00 PM sharp, the first hour is crucial.
Minimum target: 15 tweets per person.

This is the least we can do for fair pay, dignity, and the future of doctors.

[Dr Ahmad Rehan Khan @AhmadRehanKhan]

With soaring inflation, young doctors are working 60–70+ hours a week, seeing hundreds of patients, facing security threats, verbal abuse from attendants, and sometimes even mistreatment within the system itself. Their demands are not unreasonable, they are the bare minimum for dignity and survival.

I urge the government, PMDC, UHS, and all stakeholders to support young doctors. If we continue to ignore them, more will leave Pakistan, worsening the healthcare crisis. Invest in doctors today so they can continue serving the people who need them most.

[Doctors Wake-Up Movement @DWMOfficial]

It has become the most viral trend to humiliate the duty doctors and upload the video on social media.The working environment in the hospitals is the reason many of the doctors had left Pakistan.The most of the female doctors are quitting their medical career. #PayRaiseForDoctors

[Dr. Rafi @DrRafi_]

A nation does not lose its doctors when they resign.

It loses them much earlier, when duty becomes exploitation, sacrifice becomes expectation, and silence becomes policy.

Fair pay is not a favour to doctors, it is a decision to keep healthcare alive.

Maryam Nawaz has ruined the health department of punjab , not raised a single penny for any scale dr / nurse /pharmacist or para medical staff . Made brain rot policies as avoiding use of cell phones or wearing body cameras . The drs appointed through specialised pay packages are still waiting for their pays to be released. Cherry on the top not taking any action against the exploitation and harassment faced by medics bcz normal public interferes with the management plans and if they are declined they attack the dr.
The health dept is way more miserable and pathetic than buzdar’s tenure but the brain rot patwaris would tell you punjab’s health sector is blooming like tulips and roses

[Dr. Rafi @DrRafi_]

A young doctor requested just one thing.

“Sir, I got married recently. Can I spend my first Eid with my family?”

The answer was no.

While millions of people travel home for Eid, many doctors report for duty. They miss family gatherings, weddings, birthdays, funerals, and the moments they can never get back. Not because they want to, but because hospitals never close.

The irony is painful.

When a shop closes on a holiday, people understand.
When a plumber charges extra on a holiday, people understand.
When offices shut down for Eid, people understand.

But when doctors ask for fair pay, better working conditions, or even the chance to spend an Eid with their loved ones, many act as if doctors are not human.

A doctor in Pakistan may work 24-36 hour shifts, treat hundreds of patients, face violence from attendants, work in overcrowded wards, and sacrifice family time yet often receives no special allowance for public holidays and earns far less than many professionals carrying far less responsibility.

Every exhausted doctor standing in an emergency ward on Eid is missing a family waiting at home.

Every doctor treating your loved one on a holiday is someone else's loved one too.

If society wants safe hospitals and better patient care, it must also care about the people providing that care.

Respect for doctors is not a privilege.

It is an investment in healthcare itself.

ایکسپریس نیوز نے بغیر کسی ثبوت اور مکمل حقائق جانے ایک ڈاکٹر کو عوام کے سامنے رسوا کیا، جبکہ اس معاملے میں sternal pain stimulus جیسے اہم طبی طریقۂ کار کو سمجھے بغیر خبر نشر کی گئی۔

ہم اس غیر ذمہ دارانہ میڈیا رویّے اور سنسنی خیز صحافت کی شدید مذمت کرتے ہیں۔ ایسے بے بنیاد الزامات نہ صرف ڈاکٹروں کو ایک بار پھر عوامی نفرت اور خطرات کے سامنے لا کھڑا کرتے ہیں بلکہ ان کی عزت، وقار اور سکیورٹی کو بھی شدید نقصان پہنچاتے ہیں۔

اسی لیے بڑے بزرگ کہا کرتے تھے کہ صحافی کے لیے کم سے کم پرائمری تک تعلیم لازمی ھونی چاہیے...🤦

𝗜𝗡𝗖𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗦𝗘 𝗦𝗮𝗹𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝗼𝗳 𝗗𝗼𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗣𝗮𝗸𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻:

I fully endorse the demand to increase doctors’ salaries in Pakistan. This is not an unreasonable ask, it is a matter of dignity, fairness, and survival of the healthcare system.

Young doctors in Pakistan are among the brightest minds of the nation. They spend nearly a decade studying relentlessly, sacrifice their youth in training, work brutal 100+ hour weeks during house jobs and residency, and carry the responsibility of human lives every single day.

Yet many are paid less than drivers and security guards. This level of exploitation, especially in some private hospitals, is shameful and unacceptable.

If urgent reforms are not made, Pakistan will continue losing its best doctors to other countries at an alarming rate. This brain drain will not only devastate the medical profession, it will ultimately harm millions of patients and weaken the entire healthcare system of the country.

[Dr Adnan Khan @DrAdnankhanYDA]

A healthcare system cannot run on exhaustion and low salaries.

Pay doctors fairly.
Protect healthcare in Pakistan.
