International Fellowships

During my fellowship, I was surrounded by a brilliant team and worked directly with patients on the ward and in outpatients. This familiarised me to different types of patients, which added to my professional experience and ability to understand and effectively engage with people. I also had the change to perform medical procedures and attend multidisciplinary meetings, which added value to my knowledge of medical practices in the UK and how they could pertain to Kuwait and the surrounding region. In short, I would recommend GOSH to any future candidate. - Dr Muhammad Ghaleb – International Fellowship in Paediatric Respiratory Medicine (11/03/2019 – 10/03/2021)

I have always wanted to be trained in a centre of excellence. The Rheumatology service at GOSH have a large number of complex cases that is usually manged with an impressive multidisciplinary team who worked together to assure proving our little angles with the best clinical practice. As a fellow, I had a lot of hands-on experience and a good balance between supervision and independent clinical practice. In addition, I was supported by an amazing supervisor who met with me regularly to assure I am on the right track to achieve my goals. I would highly recommend others to apply for fellowship at GOSH). - Dr Ayesha Al Mheiri – International Fellowship in Paediatric Rheumatology (04/01/22 - 03/01/23)

Three things make GOSH a unique place for training: variety and number of cases, the support from expert supervisors, and the multicultural staff. During my fellowship, I was under the supervision of two amazing supervisors who supported me to make sure that I achieved my goals. Moreover, I have been exposed to a lot of rare metabolic and dysmorphology cases and learnt from the way of approaching and managing those children. In addition, the multicultural environment made me freely practicing my believes and engaging into the work quickly. A fellowship at GOSH is a good opportunity for anyone seeking to be trained in advance centre and with leading experts in the field, I recommend it to the future candidates. - Dr Aziza Mushiba, International Fellowship in Paediatric Metabolic and Clinical Genetics (07/08/2019 – 06/08/2021)

My Fellowship at GOSH has been a defining chapter in my medical career. The combination of hands-on experience, education and teamwork has left an indelible mark on my professional journey. The Neurology team’s brilliance and cooperation created a conductive learning environment. Their collaboration elevated my learning experience and instilled a sense of belonging to a community truly passionate about improving young patient’s lives. My supervisors helped me to tailor my fellowship to align with my learning objectives and career aspirations. Their guidance played a pivotal role in shaping the trajectory of my fellowship and I am immensely grateful for their mentorship. I worked in clinical setting and ward environment which allowed me to see a diverse range of patients which further enhanced my skills. I was able to grow as a medical professional and regular education was integral to this and exposed me to latest advancements and research in the field. I am immensely grateful for the knowledge skills and connections I have gained and look forward to applying them in my practice. - Sarah Alenezi, International Fellowship in Paediatric Neurology and International Fellowship in Epilepsy and EEG (02/02/2020 – 07/08/2023)
