Reina Alameddine

Having trained in general practice twice; first in Beirut, Lebanon and then in Leeds, I provided primary care services in different contexts and systems. I worked across different disciplines, both clinical and non clinical, building on good communication skills, sound knowledge and work ethics. I enjoyed working with multidisciplinary teams from different countries, leveraging on my proficiency in Arabic, French and English. Eager to learn and develop my understanding of health systems, I completed a Master degree in health policy with a focus on NHS. I moved to the UK in 2022 and re-trained as a GP, demonstrating strong adaptability to new environments. Driven by hard work and resilience, I continue a journey in general practice that started in 2014, built around compassionate and collaborative approach to patient care.
