There is a large number of patients daily visiting Mayo Hospital who cannot afford to purchase expensive medicines, therefore, it was decided to establish a Free Drug Bank at OPD to help the neediest and deserving patients. Since this noble idea was conceived by Dr. Zaheer-ul-Hassan Mir, Deputy Medical Superintendent, Outpatients Department (OPD), Mayo Hospital, Lahore, during his visit at the tomb of “Hazrat Ali Usman Hajvery (RA), hence it has been given the name after the name of the most famous saint of the subcontinent. The idea was shared with venerable Dr. Zahid Pervaiz, Medical Superintendent, Prof. Dr. Irfan Manzoor Bakhshi and Waqar Ahmad Mian, philanthropist and was highly appreciated by all. Finally, by the grace of Almighty Allah, Ali Hajveri Free Drug Bank (AHFDB) was established in Room No. 3 in OPD, Mayo Hospital, Lahore dated 5th March, 2012. The major objective of this Drug Bank is to provide medicines, free of cost, as one of the healthcare facilities to the patients.
