Countries of practice
Consultant Forensic Psychiatrist, UK-trained, with broad international experience across Egypt, the United Kingdom, and Qatar. His work sits at the intersection of psychiatry, law, and institutional practice, with a focus on forensic assessment, medico-legal opinion, and the standards required in legally sensitive clinical settings
As Forensic Psychiatry Training Program Director, he is actively involved in advancing specialist education and promoting high standards in forensic practice. His medico-legal experience was shaped in the United Kingdom across mental health tribunals, Magistrates' Courts, Crown Court, and the Parole Board - a practical understanding of how psychiatric opinion is examined in legal settings
Alongside senior clinical and educational roles, he has contributed to professional training across the region, including consultancy work with UNICEF in Egypt supporting legal authorities. Through MedLex, he offers expert-led, court-conscious, and practice-grounded guidance in forensic and medico-legal psychiatry

UNICEF Egypt - consultancy supporting legal authorities
Built on scientific rigour, legal alignment, and professional protection
Case review in company - an opinion tested early holds up later
The paper trail is the evidence - documentation before conclusion
Institutional capacity built alongside individual competence
Method before conclusion. Structured instruments, documented reasoning, and opinions stated at the confidence the evidence supports
Reports written to answer the legal question posed, in the framework of the jurisdiction hearing it - not a clinical summary handed to a court
A defensible methodology is a clinician's protection. We teach the record-keeping and reasoning that hold up when the opinion is challenged
International standards, applied to the courts and institutions practitioners here actually appear before
Choose the pathway that belongs to you and you hear about that one alone — no general mailings, no commitment
