Alhamdulillah for having the greatest first patient ever. You've always encouraged me to set higher goals and push myself to limits that I didn't think I could achieve. You and Ma saw so much potential in me, and I will never understand why. Ever since I was little, I wanted to be a doctor just like you when I grew up, so to have you as my first patient in my examining chair was such an honor. You are one of the most hard working people I know. Not everyone would be able to resettle in a foreign land, give up their home, and redo the entire medical process in an unknown language just so their future children could have a better life. Your sacrifices have not gone unnoticed. You are loving, loud, goofy, sarcastic, and VERY stubborn, but you passed down all those traits to me ;) I hope I can some day be half the wonderful human and amazing doctor my father is. So incredibly blessed to have such a great Baba. #internAhsan #almostDrAhsanJr #twogenerationsofDrAhsans #BabaAhsan #myBabaisthebestBaba #SUNYO #SUNYOptometry #yeartwo #firstdayofclinic
