Experienced cardiac anesthesiologist with a passion for teaching.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated cardiac anesthesiologist with extensive experience in providing anesthesia care for pediatric and adult cardiac surgeries. Currently, I serve at the Children's Heart Fund of Ethiopia, where I also direct the continuous professional development department. My journey in this field has been marked by a commitment to excellence in patient care and education.
Previously, I led the Ethiopian cardiac surgery support team at King Faisal Hospital in Rwanda, where I initiated a continuous pediatric cardiac surgery program. My role involved not only providing anesthesia care but also mentoring residents and medical students, ensuring the next generation of medical professionals is well-prepared. My leadership experience as a Medical Director at Cardiac Center Ethiopia further honed my skills in clinical management and fundraising.
