Summary

International Medical Graduate with hands-on clinical experience in both inpatient and outpatient settings across multiple specialties, currently focused on building a career in Internal Medicine in the United States. I have worked as a Medical Officer in a tertiary care cardiothoracic surgery department, where I developed a strong foundation in managing complex medical cases, coordinating multidisciplinary care, and communicating effectively with patients and their families. My clinical exposure in the U.S. through observerships has further refined my understanding of evidence-based medicine and the U.S. healthcare system. I am deeply committed to continuous learning, patient-centered care, and collaborative teamwork. I am currently pursuing U.S. clinical experience and preparing for the Internal Medicine residency Match.
