I was the captain of my football team for six years, which taught me the true value of teamwork and leadership. As a first-generation medical doctor, I know the sacrifices and hardships of this journey. I chose medicine because helping people and feeling their pain truly moves me; it reminds me that I’m here for a reason. One of my biggest goals is to set a good example and help others believe that hard work does pay off. Through ABCDE, I want to support people on this path and remind them they’re not alone.

As a dedicated medical student, I am driven by a passion for healthcare and a commitment to excellence in my studies. Beyond my academic pursuits, I have honed my skills in transcription and PowerPoint presentation design through years of practice.

Moreover, I am fluent in English, Spanish, German, French, and Arabic. This linguistic proficiency enables me to communicate effectively with diverse populations and contribute to global healthcare initiatives.

I chose ABCDE because it aligns with my future goals of empowering financially distressed individuals by helping them access life-changing career opportunities.

My name is George Hanen, and I am currently a fifth-year medical student with a strong interest in clinical neurology, particularly at its intersection with artificial intelligence. Driven by passion and perseverance, I am committed to securing a neurology residency position in the United States.

I am also deeply engaged in neurology-focused clinical research, with a particular interest in how innovative research can translate into cutting-edge, patient-centered care for debilitating neurological disorders.

Outside of medicine, I maintain a healthy work-life balance through my love for soccer—which I play weekly—and by playing the piano. I am also passionate about theatre acting, which allows me to express creativity and connect with others in a unique and meaningful way.

Hi! I’m Nour — a doctor, researcher, and mentor with a growing passion for psychiatry and human connection.

What drives me most is a genuine interest in people — their emotions, their challenges, and how they make sense of the world. That’s what drew me to psychiatry: not just the science, but the stories behind it.

Currently, I’m working as a Research Scholar in Psychiatry at Northwell Health. Outside the hospital, I also work as an OET Speaking instructor, supporting IMGs as they build confidence in their communication skills.

I’m excited to be volunteering with ABCDE — their mission of community, mentorship, and empowering Egyptian MGs in the US resonates with me.

I’m Kamal Abdelwahid, a medical graduate from Fayoum University and currently a cardiology resident in Egypt. Having recently passed USMLE Step 1, I’m now preparing for Step 2 CK, with the goal of pursuing Internal Medicine training in the United States and ultimately specializing in cardiology.

I’ve always admired the impact ABCDE has had on those pursuing the U.S. residency path. As someone on this journey myself, I understand how valuable support and guidance can be, and I’m excited to be part of an organization dedicated to helping others turn their dreams into realities.

On a personal note, I also enjoy film photography and cinema.

I’m a medical graduate passionate about continuous learning, with a clear goal of becoming a cardiologist in the U.S. Alongside medicine, I have a strong interest in creative fields like photography and graphic design, and I’m deeply fascinated by economics, business, and how they intersect with healthcare.

I am Ahmed Yasser, a recent graduate from the Faculty of Medicine Kafrelsheikh University in Egypt (Class of 2023).

I am currently pursuing my ECFMG certification, having completed both USMLE Step 1 and Step 2 CK (scoring 261), as well as the OET exam. I am intending to apply for IM residency.

Hello, I’m Khalid Radwan Alsaadany.
A fifth-year medical student with a heart full of curiosity and a mind driven by the power of questions. A deep passion for research has fueled my journey in medicine, a kind that doesn’t just stop at textbooks but dares to ask “what if?” and “why not?” Whether it’s unraveling the mysteries of disease or exploring new ways to improve patient care, I believe science thrives when we challenge the known.

Outside the lecture halls, you’ll find me immersed in another world entirely, the world of cinema. Movies aren’t just entertainment to me; they’re stories that teach empathy, reflect humanity, and inspire change. Just like medicine, filmmaking is an art of connection, and I love how both can touch lives in quiet, powerful ways.

My ultimate dream? To become not just a physician, but a great physician-scientist, one who listens deeply, thinks critically, and cares genuinely. I want to be someone patients trust, peers respect, and students look up to. The road ahead is long, but every step is worth it if it leads to healing, understanding, and making a difference, even in the smallest way.

This space is where my thoughts on medicine, research, and the occasional movie review will come together—a reflection of who I am and who I’m still becoming.
Thank you for being here. Let’s grow together.
