Dr. Sohail Asghar Dogar, Aga Khan University— Dr. Sohail Asghar Dogar tragically passed away yesterday while performing surgery due to a massive aortic dissection. He was a distinguished pediatric surgeon at Aga Khan University in Pakistan, known for his dedication and kindness. His untimely death has left the medical community and his family in profound grief.
Dr. Dogar is survived by his wife and three young children. He was highly respected by his peers and beloved by his patients. His commitment to his profession and the well-being of his patients was unparalleled.
Beenish Amjad, a colleague from KEMC, shared on Facebook, "I knew Dr. Sohail Asghar Dogar from my days at KEMC as a kind, polite, and respectful junior with a great sense of humor. He went on to become a pediatric surgeon at AKU, and it was always great to see him achieve big things in life as we were still connected through Facebook. Unfortunately, he passed away yesterday after collapsing due to a massive aortic dissection while he was operating on a patient."
In the wake of this tragedy, Waqas Ahmed has organized a GoFundMe campaign to support Dr. Dogar’s family financially.

As of today, $11,747 has been raised out of the $100,000 goal through 47 donations, with Khola Qamar making the top donation of $2,000.
The outpouring of support on social media has been overwhelming. Asif Khan pledged to share the fundraiser in wider medical groups, while Asma Fareed, Huma Sheikh, and Amnah Waseem expressed their condolences, invoking prayers for the family.
The sudden loss of Dr. Dogar is a significant blow to his family, colleagues, and the broader community. His dedication and compassion will be sorely missed, and his contributions to pediatric surgery will be remembered by many.
