Medical Clinic Experience
It’s to be noted that while attending international and local medical congresses as well as working with multispecialty and neurology offices such as Dr. Hamza, MD (neurologist), Sadler Medical Group, Universal City Medical Group, Doctor’s Clinic Houston, Antelop Valley Medical Clinic, I maintained knowledge of latest clinical data, industry changes and medical data while dealing with all types of patients and patient conditions
(includidng but not limited to Diabetic, neuropathy, etc.). Attending numerous medical seminars on different medical drugs and their pharmaceutical benefits as well as taking classes in Pharmatoxicology and Biochemistry, has also brodened my understanding of the human condition as it presents itself in different types of disease or autoimmune issues and the pharmaceutical industry. This experience and my diverse knowledge in the medical, healthcare or pharmaceutical industry, not to mention, I’ve been practicing as a physician in California (12 years) as well as Texas (6 years), can be an asset to working with your company.
