Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) President and former prime minister Nawaz Sharif departed from Lahore for London on Monday morning. He boarded a foreign airline flight for the journey. According to family sources, the visit will last nearly two weeks. During this time, doctors in London will conduct a series of medical examinations.
Routine Medical Care in the UK
Nawaz Sharif’s trip is part of his ongoing medical monitoring. His physicians in the UK are expected to perform several routine check-ups. These assessments will help doctors track his health and adjust treatment if needed. The family emphasized that this visit focuses entirely on healthcare rather than political activities.
Recent Health Concerns in Lahore
Just a few days earlier, Nawaz Sharif visited the Punjab Institute of Neurosciences in Lahore. Doctors carried out a neck MRI after he complained of muscle and neck pain. The test results formed part of his regular health reviews. Now, specialists in London will continue the process with further examinations.
Second Visit in Recent Months
It is worth noting that Nawaz Sharif also traveled to London in June this year for medical consultations. Therefore, this marks his second trip for treatment in recent months. Supporters have expressed concern for his health, while party leaders have stressed that his care remains a top priority.
Balancing Politics and Health
Although Nawaz Sharif remains central to PML-N politics, his health challenges require consistent medical attention. His stay in London will focus strictly on medical needs. Party officials expect him to return once doctors complete the planned assessments.
