From a young age, Dr. Salwa Sheikh knew she wanted to make a difference in people's lives.

"Working here now as a consultant pathologist, I really feel professional fulfillment and achievement."

Dr. Salwa Sheikh

Consultant Pathologist, Dhahran Medical Center

When Salwa Sheikh was a young girl, the death of her mother from cancer inspired her to do something to help cancer patients. Her determination lead her to earn her 'O' levels at Cambridge and graduate from medical school at King Abdulaziz University in Jiddah.

She joined our Professional Development Program in 1992 and, sponsored by the company, completed her medical residency in the United States.

Learn more about what inspired Dr. Sheikh to become a physician and about her collaborative medical research with Johns Hopkins and Georgetown universities in the United States and with King Faisal Research Center in Saudi Arabia.

Dr. Sheikh is just one of our many health professionals dedicated to supporting vibrant and healthy communities in Saudi Arabia. For more information about our work in health and safety, see our 2010 Corporate Citizenship Report.
