What I'm looking for

I seek roles delivering high-acuity critical care or anesthesia where I can lead teams, apply ALS skills, and continue clinical teaching and system-level improvements.

I am a medically trained physician and nationally registered paramedic with extensive critical care and anesthesiology experience across pre-hospital, ICU, and operative settings.

My background includes leadership of adult surgical and medical ICUs, staff anesthesiology responsibilities, and current advanced life support delivery as a paramedic—demonstrating advanced airway management, ventilator care, trauma resuscitation, and perioperative anesthesia.

I bring multilingual communication (Arabic, English, Hebrew, Russian), clinical training experience, and a commitment to coordinated, compassionate patient care under pressure.
