I have been an ophthalmologist for over 17 years. After joining a new hospital, I took on the challenge of teaching Phacoemulsification to the entire faculty of ophthalmologists. While I had experience teaching postgraduate students, this was the first time I was training faculty members.
Over the course of four months, I trained six faculty members—a process that tested my patience and perseverance. Fortunately, no major complications occurred during this period, and any minor complications were successfully managed.
Beyond my medical career, I am a triathlete, having completed six Half Ironman races. I am also a marathoner, a long-distance cyclist, and an avid trekker.
