What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that fosters collaboration and innovation in patient care, with opportunities for professional growth.

I am a dedicated pharmacist with a decade of diverse experience across retail, hospital, and ICU clinical settings. My journey has equipped me with a robust skill set, including certifications in Pharmacotherapy and Supportive Nutrition, and advanced training in clinical research and biotechnology. Currently, I serve as a Medical Approval Specialist at the Universal Health Insurance Authority, where I review and evaluate medical claims to ensure compliance with national health policies and clinical guidelines.

Throughout my career, I have collaborated with multidisciplinary healthcare teams to optimize treatment plans for critically ill patients, ensuring adherence to hospital formulary guidelines and contributing to antimicrobial stewardship efforts. My passion for advancing patient care drives me to implement evidence-based practices and enhance patient access to appropriate care. I am committed to continuous learning and professional development, as evidenced by my participation in various conferences and internships focused on health economics and clinical research.
