Biography

Dr Fayza Haider is the First and up-to-date the Only Female Consultant Pediatric Surgeon in the Kingdom of Bahrain. All the hard work payed off by being honored with the Order of National Action Award in 2018 from King Hamad Bin Isa Al Khalifa, King of Kingdom of Bahrain on the 16th of December 2018 at the Official National Day Ceremony. Salmaniya Medical Complex is the largest tertiary care and teaching hospital in the Kingdom of Bahrain where my practice is based. Pediatric Surgery Training had continued at the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO) in Ottawa, Ontario- Canada [CHEO is a Pediatric and Academic Health Services Center, including a specialized acute-care hospital, affiliated with the University of Ottawa],where a two year Pediatric General Surgery Clinical Fellowship was completed. Board Certification was achieved in General Surgery from the Arab Board of Health Specialization followed by a Membership of the Royal College of Surgeons of Ireland and then Pediatric General Surgery Clinical Fellowship. Arabian Gulf University, College of Medicine and Medical Sciences is my undergraduate university where I obtained my Medical Doctor Degree and Bachelor of Basic Medical Sciences and succeeded in becoming a member of the Faculty by joining the Department of Surgery since 2010 and now holding the post of an Assistant Professor since May 2021. Program Director and training coordinator of Department of Surgery is a post I am entrusted with since 2013 as I am highly passionate about training and advancing surgical education. I have been the Chief Editor of Department of Surgery Annual reports since the 2010. Precept: Follow your passion. Pave your path and never Give Up. Never Stop Caring, Learning or Training (CLT) Fayza Haider, MD
