I am an experienced general adult consultant psychiatrist with over 30 years of practice experience. I am a fellow of the Royal College of Psychiatrists (FRCPsych).

I studied medicine in Alexandria medical school, Egypt, graduated in 1983. I obtained a post graduate diploma in neuropsychiatry in 1990 from Ain Shams University, Egypt. Following that, from 1990 until 1995, I worked as a Specialist in Psychiatry at the Behman Psychiatric Hospital in Egypt, the largest private hospital in the Middle East.

I then moved to UK, where I completed my psychiatric training at St. George’s rotation. Furthermore, I obtained an MSc in addictive behaviour at St. George’s medical school then I obtained the membership of the royal college of psychiatrists. Then I was awarded a fellowship for providing excellence care to the patients.

I worked as a Clinical Lead Consultant in Psychiatry at the NHS and independent sector in Cambridge from 2008 to 2013. I am currently working as a Regional Clinical Lead Consultant Psychiatrist at Change, Grow, and Live (CGL).

My approach focuses not only on prescribing medication, but also take into consideration the psychological and the social aspect of any condition. I work with multidisciplinary team to achieve an understanding of person strengths and weaknesses and set up goals to achieve a full recovery.  I strongly believe that every patient has specific needs and their unique circumstances should be taken into consideration in treatment plan.
