Summary


I am a dedicated and adaptable Resident doctor in training with diverse clinical experience spanning both low-resource healthcare settings and the NHS. My medical career began in a resource-constrained environment, where I developed strong problem-solving skills, resilience, and the ability to deliver high-quality care with limited resources. This experience honed my ability to think critically, prioritize effectively, and manage diverse medical presentations with ingenuity and efficiency.

Transitioning into the NHS, I have gained invaluable exposure to a multidisciplinary approach to care. My current role in geriatrics medicine has deepened my understanding of patient-centered care, teamwork, and collaboration with allied health professionals, including physiotherapists, occupational therapists, and pharmacists. I excel in identifying and addressing patients' medical concerns while supporting their holistic recovery.

Skilled in both patient-facing and non-patient-facing roles, I am adept at effective communication, organization, and clinical decision-making. My background has given me a unique perspective on healthcare delivery and a strong foundation for further training in diverse specialities. I am passionate about improving these skills daily.

I am passionate about continuous learning and committed to delivering compassionate, evidence-based care while embracing challenges and opportunities to grow professionally within the NHS.
