What I'm looking for

I’m seeking an entry-level role where I can strengthen my clinical skills in orthopaedic surgery, deliver patient-centered care, and apply digital health ideas that improve patient navigation, accessibility, and outcomes.

I’m a Medical Doctor with strong academic performance and a focused interest in orthopaedic surgery. I bring clinical assessment, teamwork, and evidence-based practice, and I’m passionate about integrating digital health and technology to improve accessibility and outcomes.

As a MEDICAL INTERN at Addis Ababa University, College of Health Sciences, Tikur Anbessa Specialized Hospital, I conducted patient history taking and comprehensive physical examinations. Under supervision, I assisted in diagnosis and management plans, performed basic procedures (venipuncture, IV line insertion, wound care, and suturing), supported emergency care including triage and initial stabilization, and helped with pre-operative and post-operative patient care while maintaining patient confidentiality. I also interpreted basic laboratory and imaging results such as blood tests and X-rays.

I completed my Doctor of Medicine at Addis Ababa University with a CGPA of 3.93, Top scorer of the batch, and strong core clinical training across Internal Medicine, General Surgery, Pediatrics, Obstetrics & Gynecology, and Emergency Medicine. I’ve also built digital health interest through the Tikur Anbessa Hospital Mapping Project and an African Digital Health Student Mentorship Program, and I’m committed to continuous learning and professional growth.
