Summary

Motivated and dedicated medical doctor with a strong commitment to continuous professional development. Currently working in the Emergency Department at Prince Saud Bin Jalawi Hospital in Al-Ahsa since October 2024, where I have gained hands-on experience in managing acute and critical cases and performing essential emergency procedures. I have a particular interest in Neurology, which was further deepened during a clinical rotation in adult neurology, where I engaged with a wide range of neurological cases and enhanced my skills in neurological assessment and interdisciplinary care planning. I am seeking to join a neurology residency program to advance my clinical expertise and contribute meaningfully to patient care in this complex and evolving field.
