Dr. Sher Ali Khan

Ich bin in Pakistan geboren und aufgewachsen. Meine Muttersprache ist Paschtu, während Englisch meine dritte Sprache ist. Während meiner Facharztausbildung für Innere Medizin in Chicago wurde mir klar, dass viele Gesundheitsressourcen für Krankheiten ausgegeben werden, mit minimalem Fokus auf Prävention und öffentliche Gesundheit. Gleiches gilt für Pakistan. Ich bin froh, dass ich mich für den Berufswechsel in die Präventivmedizin und Public Health entschieden habe. Meine Leidenschaft für dieses Feld wurde durch meinen Forschungshintergrund verstärkt. Es ist atemberaubend zu sehen, wie integrativ die UNM für ethnische Minderheiten wie People of Color und Einwanderer ist. Ich freue mich darauf, die Facharztausbildung für Präventivmedizin und den Master of Public Health an der UNM zu beginnen. Nachdem ich die Ausbildung an der UNM abgeschlossen habe, möchte ich in mein Land zurückkehren, um Präventivmedizin und öffentliche Gesundheit zu fördern. Es gibt bestimmte Bevölkerungsgruppen, die in Pakistan mit gesellschaftlicher und gesundheitlicher Ungleichheit konfrontiert sind, genau wie in den Vereinigten Staaten. Die Beseitigung einer solchen Ungleichheit erfordert eher einen proaktiven als einen reaktiven Ansatz. Ich möchte die Ungleichheit in Pakistan ansprechen.

Dr. Maria Zambrano

My love for medicine began after working for a small chiropractic clinic many years ago, but my love for caring for those in need has always been a big part of me.   Growing up in Ecuador, I witnessed health disparities among the poor, but it wasn’t until many years later that it would truly impact me. After completing my intern year in the South Bronx, NYC, I became cognizant of health disparities among the underserved population.  I also witnessed many patients crippled by preventable diseases. Completing the preventive medicine residency at UNM is the first step towards learning how to impact the community and hope for a better future.

Hobbies: I love nature walks and hikes. I enjoy biking and photography.  I have a big family and enjoy spending time with them and making memories.

Dr. Hossein Azadi

My name is Hossein Azadi, if you want to know about my personal history and work experience, I was born in Iran-Tehran, and I graduated from Tehran Medical school, and after that I passed 5 years residency in Orthopedic surgery(including 1 year of general surgery internship), and also trained for sports medicine in Europe then I started my practice as an orthopedic surgeon in Tehran- Iran, I had  a very good practice and was very happy, but as life is not kind all the time I had involved with some political issues, and with  Islamic tyrannical government. I was arrested by Islamic republic guard, because of those political conflicts. Thanks god that I was able to send my family to Canada at 2011, after release from political jail, I came to Canada as a refugee; thanks god and thanks generous Canadians who accepted us in a safe free land.

 I was not able to bring Money from Iran, because my account, and my wife accounts was blocked by regime(still they are), therefore I do need to do a job, so I started to do Canadian licensing exams(LMCC), and ECFMG exams, so just after 2 months of escaping from my native country I did my Step 2 CK ,and I passed by score 222 at first attempt(sorry I know is not a good score but for me under those all pressure and stress was the only score  that was accessible, Only one month after releasing from a political jail) then I passed all 3 exams of LMCC including OSCE exam, and passed Canadian IMG assessment, English language tests, and one course of communication skills for health care in Kwantlen university Vancouver.

After passing all of them I was able to get a job in Alberta Health care services as a clinical surgical assistant in Calgary Alberta, this job is similar to first year residency and needs a license from Royal college of Canada. A clinical surgical assistant responsibility in surgery department is like first year resident, and you have to cover ED & ward as a first call.

In the meantime, I passed step 1 USMLE with the score 241at first attempt, and CS exam (first attempt) as well, and took ECFMG certification. After taking my Canadian citizenship and Canadian passport, I applied for Hip and knee (Adult reconstruction) Arthroplasty fellowship, I accepted in this fellowship program at the department of surgery (Orthopedic subdivision) in the University of Calgary (U of C), This fellowship was started at July 2017, and I accomplished my fellowship at the June 30^th, 2018 (certification has been attached).

Then, I started PGY1 surgery residency in Bronx Lebanon Hospital in Bronx, New York, and this ACGME accredited internship was finish at 6/30/20. My ABSITE score for 2020 exam is 86%, and because my wife accepted in OBY/GYN residency in NUMC hospital, I started my second year preliminary (PGY2) surgery at NUMC hospital in Long Island New York, this residency will be finish at June 2021, and will finish at 6/30/21.

With all above experience, I will start Preventive Medicine, in University of New Mexico, as one of the best programs in USA, to be continue work, and help people regarding health.

Dr. Laila Lobo

I was born and raised in India in a small town called Mangalore. With my family upbringing, I was educated with high ideals, traditional values of hard work, humility, and respect for others. I have a passion and determination in pursuing a standard of excellence in all tasks I would set out to do. Being a physician is a vocational calling based on a deep-rooted and passionate goal to serve and care for the medical needs of people in the community.

I came to the United States for furthering my education. After completing my licensing exams I have worked as a researcher, intern, and resident across a wide cultural diverse population giving me a sensitive and deeper appreciation of patients' clinical needs.

My recent time away for caring for the medical need of my child has made me a stronger human. The role of a caregiver has shown me that there is an overall health care disparity in addition to meeting basic clinical needs in the community. This has drawn me into field of Preventive Medicine. I look forward to a career that is instrumental in providing compassionate health care, needed policy changes, and supporting and furthering research that impacts the lives of many in a positive way.

During my early education, I had the opportunity to be a competitive athlete and a cadet in the national cadet corps addition to excellence in my academics. I have continued active life style. I enjoy hiking, trekking, running, swimming, kayaking, canoeing, motorcycle riding, going to museums, shopping and travelling. Some days I just like to sit back and enjoy reading, watching entertainment television, gardening, knitting, crochet, sewing and needle craft. Spending time with family and friends is always a priority for me.

Dr. Asma Qamruddin

I am Asma Qamruddin. I was born and raised in India, Hyderabad in a middle-class family with high family values and morals. I graduated and trained from the best Medical Schools in my State, The Osmania Medical college for medical school and Gandhi Medical College for Pediatric Residency. Soon after graduating from Residency, I moved with my little family to Saudi Arabia in search for professional growth, higher education and better earning.

I filled my dream. My family grew bigger with 3 children and ever supporting hubby. I simultaneously advanced my career by attaining Membership from Royal College of Pediatrics and Child Health UK. (MRCPCH). I balanced my life between family, Job, and voluntary services. I had often tried to spend my spare time working for the oppressed or needy people.

Time flew by very fast until I realized that I have advanced in both clinicals and academics but did not get the opportunity to build my career in research. With this background, our family decided to relocate to US to stay close with my siblings and extended family.

With rich clinical experience I started my medical career in the United States with Fellowship in Neonatology, and will be graduating this month. My passion is to advance my career by bringing a change for both sick and healthy humans to improve the quality and longevity of their lives.
