@raedabushamalla
Medical specialist and AI healthcare expert translating clinical diagnosis into reliable AI tools.
What I'm looking for
I’m a clinician with 14+ years of medical experience, including a decade specialising in orthopaedic and trauma surgery. Today, I apply that real-world diagnostic and patient-care depth to the development of frontier AI healthcare applications.
I’ve built my career on advanced clinical diagnosis, treatment planning, and patient care management across complex, high-pressure environments, including multiple active conflict zones. As holder of MRCS Part A (Royal College of Surgeons, England), I bring systematic clinical thinking, multi-turn reasoning, and medical accuracy to AI training and evaluation.
From 2014–2024, I served as Orthopaedic & Trauma Surgeon (First Surgeon) at European Gaza Hospital, delivering high-stakes decision-making during four major conflict escalations. I supervised junior doctors and taught by clearly communicating complex clinical reasoning—directly aligned with designing medical prompts, rubrics, and conversational quality standards.
Since Jan 2025, I’ve worked as an Emergency & General Practitioner in resort and outpatient clinical settings in the Maldives, delivering full-spectrum care including trauma, NCD management, and acute presentations. Fluent in English and Arabic, and fully remote-capable, I focus on empathetic communication, diagnostic interpretation, and reliable follow-up principles that medical AI applications require.
