I chose to specialize in family medicine as I enjoy working with people of all ages — from children to the elderly — and the wide variety that my daily work offers. After completing my medical degree, I pursued postgraduate studies in conflict and catastrophe medicine. I am passionate about providing quality medical care to underserved communities and have worked in and established medical clinics and facilities in refugee camps in Iraq, Bangladesh, and Greece. 

In addition to my humanitarian work, I raise awareness about important health topics and educate the public via digital platforms. Over the last few years, I have become a trusted voice on medicine in the media and have contributed to well-known outlets, including the BBC, Women’s Health, the Metro, Daily Express, and Marie Claire. I’ve also worked with the NHS on public health campaigns and delivered a TEDx talk.

I am excited to be on the expert board at Flo and to educate and empower people worldwide through this fantastic healthtech platform!

I enjoy spending time with my family and beautiful baby girl. Together, we love exploring the outdoors and traveling.
