From med school and my house job to my final year of residency, I’ve spent over 10 years in Shifa. It’s not just a workplace anymore – it’s where I’ve grown, struggled, & evolved.
Medicine has taught me resilience, compassion & the importance of staying grounded – something that I believe now reflects in my leadership role as Chief Resident.
This, of course, comes with its own set of challenges & rewards. Leadership can be lonely — sometimes, I have to make hard decisions, but I always believe in showing up for my patients & my team — with integrity, every single day. This hospital has witnessed my toughest nights & proudest moments. It’s shaped who I am — as a doctor & a human being.”
