🤷🏽♂️ About Me
Howdy, folks!
I’m Faisal, an Internal Medicine Trainee/Resident (whatever makes you happy!) in London, where Half of my day is spent learning medicine and the other half by explaining people why I don’t own a car!
I traded the tropical heat of Bangladesh for the endless drizzle of the UK in 2022 and started working in the NHS after completion of foundation training followed by a 1-year clinical fellowship at icddr,b. I am also doing an MSc in internal Medicine at the University of Edinburgh, which has been funded by a scholarship from the Royal College of physicians of Edinburgh. Fueled by perseverance and an endless supply of coffee, I aim to inspire fellow dreamers, and maybe to find a way to prescribe laughter as the best medicine!
