About
With a deep desire to help and heal humanity, Shumaila Muhammad Iqbal, M.D., found practicing medicine was the way to fulfill this yearning. “Witnessing the suffering of humanity and my innate urge to alleviate it motivated me to pursue a career in medicine,” she says.
Dr. Iqbal graduated from Dow Medical College, Pakistan. She then did residency training in internal medicine at the University of Buffalo, New York, and her rheumatology fellowship training at University of Cincinnati Medical Center, Ohio. While she was the first one in her family to become a physician, Dr. Iqbal is proud to be able to mentor several younger family members who have chosen the medical profession.
With a philosophy to make patients feel their health and well-being are her top priority, she practices patient-centered care. Dr. Iqbal says, “I tailor medical treatments to align with my patients' needs, regardless of their race, gender, or religion.”
The specialty of rheumatology allows her to diagnose and treat autoimmune diseases that affect different organs of the body, such as joints, skin, kidney, heart and brain. “These diseases occur when the body's immune system attacks and damages its own tissues,” Dr. Iqbal says. “My interest in solving the mysteries of autoimmune diseases led me to rheumatology.”
As for serving patients, Dr. Iqbal hopes they understand that their health and treatment are her foremost concerns. “I want them to trust in my expertise and dedication to their well-being.”
In her own words…
Who is or was the most influential people/role models in your life? My mother serves as my ultimate inspiration and role model. From her, I have learned the art of being both courageous and gentle, as well as the importance of humility.
What was your first job growing up? What do you remember about it? I began my career at Beacon, and I am enthusiastic about the positive experiences and opportunities that lie ahead on this journey.
What is your favorite food? I have a fondness for both Italian and Pakistani cuisine.
What was your best/worst subjects in school growing up? Biology was my favorite subject, and I found enjoyment in learning all subjects; none of them were particularly challenging as I strived to excel in each one.
If you could sit down to dinner with anyone (alive or deceased) who would it be and why? I cherish the idea of gathering around a table with all my family members for dinner. Spending time with family is truly priceless and holds a special place in my heart.
In addition to medicine, what are you passionate about? I find cooking to be therapeutic and enjoy experimenting with recipes in my free time.
What are your hobbies, interests? Additionally, I love watching movies and cherish spending quality time with my family. These activities bring me joy and relaxation.
What is something most people don’t know about you? I consider myself to be a very compassionate and gentle person, valuing kindness and understanding in my interactions with others.
