Biography

Muhammad Rafay Sameem Siddiqui, South Tyneside & Sunderland Royal Hospitals NHS Trust. Muhammad Siddiqui is a consultant in colorectal surgery who trained in South West London and Exeter and who is doing a laparoscopic fellowship. He graduated from Liverpool University, and he completed his PhD in MRI assessment of rectal cancers at Croydon University Hospital, The Royal Marsden Hospital and Imperial College.

He passed his FRCS in 2020 and understands the challenges and difficulties related to the exam. Due to a discrepancy between the FRCS exam and the resources available, Dr Siddiqui dedicated a period of time to developing a resource to help plug that gap.
