About

COMMITTED TO SERVICE. FOCUSED ON UNITY. READY TO LEAD.

My name is Nadeem Ahmed. I am a Pulmonary/Critical Care physician who graduated from Ross University School of Medicine. My Internal Medicine Residency was in North Carolina.  After completing my fellowship in Pulmonary/Critical Care in St. Louis, I served as full-time faculty at a teaching hospital, where I was able to facilitate residency training positions for graduates of Pakistani and Caribbean medical schools. Currently, I have a combined private practice and employment position.

I have particularly enjoyed working in the International Trip Committee by serving APPNA’s members abroad and forging lifetime friendships. It has provided me the experience of solving unanticipated crises through communication and teamwork.
