Professional Profile
I qualified from Baghdad Medical School in 1999 and then undertook most of my Basic Surgical Training in Leeds Teaching Hospital, Yorkshire. During this time I obtained two degrees from the University of Hull (Diploma in Social Health and MSc in Education & Development) as well as a further third degree from the University of Leeds (Medical Doctorate in Surgery).
I then moved to South Wales for my Higher Surgical Training and spent most of my time performing cancer resections of the stomach and oesophagus. My academic degrees have bridged the gap between clinical practice and research methodology. I am a JAG (Joint Advisory Group on GI Endoscopy) accredited endoscopist and therefore, competent to a standard commensurate with independent specialist practice.
I was appointed as a Consultant Upper GI, Laparoscopic, and General Surgeon in Aneurin Bevan Health Board, based at Nevill Hall Hospital. I undertook a wide range of laparoscopic procedures throughout the Health Board.
I consider myself honest, hard working, friendly, and very motivated, always aiming for clinical excellence. I have outstanding communication skills, evident from patient and colleague feedback. I am regularly involved in teaching and training doctors and students at various levels.

I have published and presented in this field and done a fellowship in Leeds Nutrition Centre for 2 years. I have gained a wide experience in managing malnourished as well as morbidly obese patients.
