Educator Spotlight: Dr. Ahmed Mohamed Fareed Ali

Dr. Ahmed Mohamed Fareed Ali

I had the pleasure of connecting with Dr. Ali via LinkedIn. His passion for echo and his extensive training was the perfect fit for a guest writer on our blog. Dr. Ali, along with Dr. Nossikoff, were kind enough to write on a topic that adds relevant value to the daily practice of echocardiography with their 2-part series on Echo Bubble Studies.

Part 1: 7 Indications for an Echo Bubble Study

Part 2: 9 Steps to Perform an Echo Bubble Study

As always, we like our readers to feel connected to our guest writers. We interviewed Dr. Ali and Dr. Nossikoff to learn a little more about them. Enjoy the interview with Dr. Ali and be sure to connect with him on LinkedIn. Next week we will interview Dr. Nossikoff.
