I am a licensed medical doctor and physician assistant specializing in primary and emergency care.
What I'm looking for
I am a licensed medical doctor and physician assistant with over sixteen years of clinical practice across inpatient and outpatient settings. I deliver evidence-based primary and emergency care focused on patient safety and clear clinical decision-making.
I have extensive experience ordering and interpreting laboratory tests, developing treatment plans for cardiovascular, endocrine and other internal disorders, and responding to life‑threatening emergencies with timely interventions. I write clear prescriptions and counsel patients on side effects and prevention.
I have served as a clinical assistant and care coordinator managing EMR documentation, insurance verification, referrals and pre-certifications while preparing patients and maintaining exam room workflow. I emphasize patient education, preventive care and coordinated follow-up to improve outcomes.
I hold training authorizations and certifications across multiple jurisdictions and am ECFMG-certified, with strong language skills in English, Arabic and intermediate Spanish. I seek roles where I can contribute to team-based patient care, expand telehealth services and continue professional growth.
