SARCD & PADCON 2027

The Pakistan Association of Dermatologists will host the 46th Padcon between the 29 - 31 October 2026.

The Pakistan Association of Dermatologists (PAD) was established in January 1979 to serve as the national representative body for dermatologists across Pakistan. Its creation stemmed from the absence of an organisation dedicated to uniting professionals in the field. The association was founded with the aim of providing a forum where dermatologists could collaborate with colleagues and specialists from related disciplines, exchange knowledge, and strengthen professional relationships. PAD promotes the advancement of dermatology through regular scientific meetings, research activities, and the presentation of academic work. The organisation is also committed to enhancing patient care, supporting dermatology education at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels, and developing policies related to dermatological practice in collaboration with relevant government authorities.
