Dr Tayaba Khan

I’m a results-driven healthcare communications specialist with a passion for empowering professionals to step beyond traditional career paths. As a pioneer who helped establish the field of medical communications in Pakistan, I’ve worked with startups, university research programs, and health IT sectors—developing game-changing campaigns and forging donor partnerships that drive real impact. With a background in coaching, training, and healthcare communications, I understand firsthand how to leverage strategy, digital content, and public engagement to open new doors. I’ve built my career on creating and executing integrated communication plans, bringing teams together, and connecting people with the resources they need to succeed. As an immigrant to Canada, I have successfully charted a unique career for myself, despite the challenges of COVID-19. I am now a faculty, and teaching local and international students about healthcare systems, digital healthcare, patient advocacy, healthcare management, healthcare communications, therapeutic communications, professional and interviewing skills, and developing visions for self. Now, I’m excited to help you do the same. In my courses, I’ll show you how to tap into your unique strengths, build a compelling professional narrative, and negotiate opportunities in health-related fields you may never have considered. I will help you get familiar with Western healthcare systems; healthcare markets; knowledge, skills, and abilities required to gain entry into the healthcare system; creating a learning pathway geared towards your unique interests and strengths; and developing strong communication skills that take you ahead in your career. Let’s unlock your potential and chart a new path forward—together.
