Three new family medicine residents are settling into work at the Chatham-Kent Health Alliance.

Drs. Farwa Zaib, Mandeep Dran, and Saheer Majeed began their post-graduate training at CKHA earlier this month.

Officials say the residents will gain valuable experience by working with local physicians and the CKHA health care team to provide support and direction as they finish the clinical portion of their medical training.

β€œChatham-Kent provides a unique and supportive environment for residents to grow both personally and professionally,” said Dr. Zeke Milkovic, Chief of Staff at CKHA in a news release. β€œThey will have the chance to collaborate with dedicated healthcare teams and gain hands-on experience in diverse areas of Family Medicine.”

Dr. Zaib earned her Bachelor of Science at the University of Windsor and her Doctor of Medicine at Schulich School of Medicine. After her residency, Dr. Zaib hopes to practice in a community clinic where she can provide comprehensive health care and develop lasting relationships with her patients.

Dr. Dran earned her Bachelor of Arts from York University before completing her Doctor of Medicine at Avalon University School of Medicine, and has a strong interest in Family Medicine, Pediatrics, and Obstetrics and Gynecology.

Dr. Majeed graduated from medical school in Pakistan, then moved to Alberta and pursued a Master of Public Health at the University of Alberta. She is interested in the areas of Emergency Medicine and Family Medicine.
