About Dr Mahmoud Alkholany

Dr Alkholany is a Consultant in Pain Medicine and Anaesthesia in the NHS and independent sector. His independent practice is based in the North West of England between Manchester and Liverpool and his NHS practice, at Liverpool University Hospitals in addition to an Honorary Consultant role for Cancer Pain Management at Marie Curie Hospice, Liverpool.

He adopts a holistic approach to pain management, minding the multi-dimensional nature of chronic pain being a bio-psycho-social disorder focusing on improving the quality of life and functioning of his patients by offering them a wide range of interventional procedures and pharmacologic management for their painful conditions, while fitting that in a bigger picture alongside rehabilitation via input from physiotherapy and addressing psychologic stressors via pain psychology as indicated. This allows him to achieve optimum outcomes for his patients and help them regain the quality of life they aspire to.

Dr Alkholany has rich experience in his field, having graduated in 2005 from a highly-regarded medical school in Cairo, Egypt at Ain Shams University. He then pursued his professional career across 3 different health care systems in Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and the UK. He was privileged to have received his pain training and fellowship between bespoken centres across the North West of England between Manchester University Hospitals, Salford Royal Hospital, Lancashire Teaching Hospitals and The Walton Centre, before starting his role as a Consultant at Liverpool University Hospitals.

He has been awarded a Master of Science in Anaesthesia, fellowship of The Royal College of Anaesthetists FRCA, European Diploma of Intensive Care Medicine EDIC, fellowship of the Faculty of Pain Medicine (FFPMRCA) and a post-graduate certificate in Medical Education. 

He has a special interest in medical education at both undergraduate and post-graduate levels, and is Lead for Undergraduate Anaesthesia Education at Royal Liverpool and Broadgreen Hospitals.
