Biography:

My name is Dr. Rashad Khazen, a board-certified general surgeon dedicated to advancing surgical care, medical education, and clinical research. I earned my medical degree from the University of Ulm in Germany in 2017.

I began my clinical journey in Germany with visceral and general surgery training before returning to Israel to complete my residency at Kaplan Medical Center, affiliated with the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, where I had the privilege of serving as Chief Resident. After finishing my Residency, I worked as a Consultant Surgeon in general surgery division at Kaplan medical center. Building on my general surgery background, I am currently pursuing a Clinical Fellowship in Body Science and Metabolic Disorders at China Medical University Hospital in Taichung, Taiwan.

Throughout my career, I have held board certifications across Germany, Israel, and the United States (ECFMG), and I actively teach as an ATLS instructor and clinical tutor for medical students and international physicians.

My research focuses on complex GI pathologies, minimally invasive techniques, and clinical outcomes and bariatric surgery, with multiple peer-reviewed publications and conference presentations to my credit. Beyond clinical practice, I remain deeply committed to humanitarian work, including providing emergency medical care in refugee relief efforts. Driven by continuous learning, I am passionate about blending advanced surgical techniques with compassionate, patient-centered care.
