Summary

  • I graduated from Baghdad University Medical School. I then worked in Baghdad Iraq, received training in multiple aspects of medicine, moved to the Jordan where I was working in primary care aspect. I moved to United state and joined the pediatric residency program with The Brooklyn Hospital Center in New York. After graduation, I worked as general pediatrician in Michigan where I served young patients in underserved area, worked with different nationalities and ethnicities, then moved to San Diego to work at Kaiser Permanente and Health Ave pediatrics providing care to young patients, educating parents and developing care plans.
