I joined Gastroenterology & Hepatology unit in Department of Medicine in 2017 as a medical lecturer and clinician. I graduated from The National University of Ireland Galway in 2009 and subsequently completed my internship and Basic Specialist Training (senior house officer-SHO) in Galway University Hospital. I spent another 5 years in Ireland as a gastroenterology/hepatology and internal medicine registrar (in Mayo General Hospital and Galway University Hospital).
After joining the Faculty of Medicine, UKM, I was enrolled in the Malaysian Gastroenterology & Hepatology Subspecialty Training in the same year. In UKM Medical Centre, my works revolve around providing care to the patients, teaching the under- & post-graduate students as well as conducting clinical research/projects.
My area of interest includes diagnostic & therapeutic endoscopy, luminal diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease, hepatology especially non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and gastrointestinal malignancy such as colorectal cancer. I am also a member of GUT research group in UKM Medical Centre. Currently, I am investigating the role of probiotics on the clinical outcomes and gut microenvironment in NAFLD patients. In addition, I am studying the potential of fecal short chain fatty acids as gut microbiome-derived biomarkers for NAFLD.
