CLINICAL EXPERIENCE

Throughout 25 years of working in neurosurgery (as SpR and specialist) and 29 years as a doctor, I have developed the essential skills of a surgeon.  This includes the systematic approach in diagnosing and managing various surgical conditions including tumours, congenital malformation, spine, orbital surgery, surgical emergencies and extreme war neurosurgery. War surgery brought a more handy and skillful practice in many aspects of the neurosurgical trauma with it is consequences. It was so hard to work in those unsecured conditions when most of colleagues left home increasing our work load. I have performed more than (5000) operations independently including endoscopic and different spine fixation operations.

Team work with physiotherapists team for neurorehablitation focusing on treatment of spasticity interventions with intrathecal baclofen pump or phenol and Botox injections.
