I graduated in 1999 from Babil University, Iraq and earned MBCHB degree. I was awarded a fellowship to study radiology as part of the Iraqi Board training program.
I performed my foundation training in Babylon University Teaching Hospital between 1999 and 2001. I subsequently started my radiology training in 2001.
In 2005, I left Iraq to come to the United Kingdom. I passed my language and medical exams in 2006 and received my GMC registration.
I started my registrar job in St Mary’s Hospital in London and joined the radiology training program in 2008. I was granted a fellowship in MRI in 2009.
I began my Locum Consultant position in the Royal Free Hospital in June 2010, which was followed by a permanent position as a Consultant Musculoskeletal Radiologist in Epsom and St. Helier University Hospitals.
I am a member of the British and European Societies of Skeletal Radiology.
I have over 7 years’ experience in both NHS and private hospitals. I have performed more than 20000 image guided musculoskeletal injections in the NHS and private sectors.
Currently, I am leading the MRI unit in St Helier Hospital.
I present the radiology aspect in the Rheumatology and Trauma and Orthopaedic meetings. I supervise and teach Junior Specialist Registrars and Radiographers during their reporting sessions. I participate in the on call rota and the extended hours working scheme.
I am involved in the teaching and research process. I have published a few papers and case reports. Currently I am sub-investigator in 3 randomised clinical trials with the South West Elective Orthopaedic centre.
