Mr Ibrahim is a Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon with specialist fellowship training in injuries and painful conditions affecting the arm, including nerve problems.

Following basic surgical training in the Oxford School of Surgery, when he also taught Anatomy at Oxford University, He completed higher Orthopaedic training on the prestigious Imperial College London rotation.
