Dr Sami Alawad
Consultant in Pain Management and Anaesthetics
FRCA, FFPMRCA, EDPM, FIPP, EDRA
I completed my specialist training in anaesthesia at Barts and The London School of Anaesthesia, where I learned how to safely manage pain and support patients during surgery. I then undertook advanced training in pain management at Whipps Cross and St Bartholomew’s hospitals in London. After finishing my training in 2012, I worked for three years as a consultant helping patients with complex pain conditions at Barts and The London NHS Trust.
I now work as a consultant in anaesthesia and pain management at Medway NHS Foundation Trust, where I continue to support patients with both surgical care and long-term pain relief.
