Sobia was born in Karachi, Pakistan. She attended Dow Medical College at Dow University of Health Sciences in Karachi, Pakistan which is one of the top medical schools in Pakistan. Graduated with multiple distinctions, and honors. Ranked as the second highest academic achiever in the graduating class. Completed residency in Internal Medicine at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in NY.
Obtained a Master of Public Health from the Rollins School of Public Health at Emory University with a focus in epidemiology. Published my thesis work was on stratification of risk factors for colorectal cancer by NSAID use.
Completed fellowship in gastroenterology at Emory University Division of Digestive Disease, where I was a Chief Fellow.
Clinical interests include General Gastroenterology, and Inflammatory Bowel Disease.
My research and clinical focus is to work towards reducing racial/ethnic disparities among minority populations with regard to colon cancer screening. Furthermore, I intend to focus my research on gastrointestinal health and its' determinants among minority populations.
I believe that patients are equal partners in the healthcare relationship with their physician and it is our responsibility to empower patients, to involve them in shared decision making , to cultivate a sense of confidence in them that they are receiving the best possible care we can offer.
I live with my husband, and daughter. I enjoy spending my time with my family, reading (history, historical fiction, religion and geopolitics), and working out.
