Compassionate physician dedicated to improving health equity and patient care.
EgyptWhat I'm looking for
I am a dedicated physician with clinical experience across surgery, acute care, and general practice. My journey began in Egypt, where I witnessed significant healthcare disparities, which ignited my passion for public health and patient-centered care. I am committed to bridging clinical medicine with public health strategies to improve outcomes in underserved communities.
Throughout my training at the University of Buckingham and my diverse clinical rotations at the Countess of Chester Hospital, I have developed strong diagnostic and management skills. My internships in ovarian cancer research and neurosurgery have further honed my technical abilities and reinforced my commitment to advancing oncology care. I strive to contribute meaningfully to the healthcare field, focusing on improving community health through advocacy and education.
