From Medicine to Social Media Stardom
Dr. Affan Qaiser, a renowned Pakistani gastroenterologist and transplant hepatologist, has become a household name through his informative health awareness content. With over 5 million Facebook followers and 430,000 YouTube subscribers, he has established himself as a trusted medical influencer. Married to Dr. Nazish Affan, also a medical professional, the couple shares a close bond and is raising three children together.
International Recognition and E-Commerce Ventures
Recently, Dr. Affan Qaiser and his wife were invited by the international e-commerce industry to visit Dubai, Singapore, and Thailand. After successful meetings in Dubai, they traveled to Singapore, where Dr. Qaiser represented Pakistani brands and explored global business opportunities. The couple also collaborated with Zam Zam Electronics in Dubai, sharing sponsored content and travel vlogs featuring their family experiences.
Controversy Over Family Vlogging
Despite his medical advocacy, Dr. Affan Qaiser has faced backlash for posting family-oriented content on social media. Critics point out his previous criticism of popular Pakistani family vloggers, accusing him of hypocrisy for now engaging in similar activities. Social media users have called him out with remarks such as, “Welcome to the world of family vloggers,” and “At least refrain from doing the things you once criticized others for.” Some supporters, however, defend his actions by distinguishing between domestic and international vlogging.
Public Reaction and Divided Opinions
The debate has sparked mixed reactions, with some followers appreciating his family moments while others question his consistency. One user sarcastically commented, “This is called a halal family vlogger,” while another criticized his airplane recording, saying, “You recorded the video on the plane without consent, just because you’re Dr. Affan Qaiser?” Despite the controversy, Dr. Qaiser continues to share insights on health and wellness while navigating the evolving expectations of his audience.
