I was born and raised in Cairo, Egypt, and graduated from the college of medicine at Ain Shams University, one of the top medical schools in Egypt. After graduation, I pursued my journey in medicine, specializing in critical care.
I moved to the United States of America with my family and completed the United States Medical License Examination. Afterwards, I completed Michigan State University’s McLaren Flint Internal Medicine Residency, where I was elected as a chief resident for the Internal Medicine Residency Program.
After graduation, I completed a rigorous three-year post-doctorate pulmonary and critical care medicine fellowship, followed by a one-year post-doctorate sleep medicine fellowship at Lewis Katz school of Medicine .There, I received extensive training in obstructive lung disease/COPD, bronchial asthma, interstitial lung disease, lung cancer, lung transplant, obstructive sleep apnea and other sleep disorders including diagnosis and treatment of complex sleep disordered breathing, narcolepsy and insomnia.
Over time, I developed special interest in interstitial lung disease, bronchial asthma and various sleep breathing disorders. I am now American Board of Internal Medicine certified in general internal medicine, pulmonary medicine, critical care medicine and sleep medicine.
I am currently a full time clinical assistant professor at Lewis Katz School of Medicine.
I am fluent in both Arabic and English.
Outside of medicine, I enjoy watching soccer, reading, biking, playing racquetball and spending quality time with my wife and son.
