Two years of war. A dangerous journey out of Gaza. And a mission that never stopped.
In this special episode of Reel Talk, Daizy Gedeon reunites in London with Dr Mohamed Atallah, the Palestinian doctor whose story she first shared while he was still working in Gaza and seeking support to pursue his medical education abroad.
Today, Dr Atallah is completing his master's degree in cancer studies and research at Brunel University London. But for him, leaving Gaza was never about leaving his people behind.
After working in emergency and surgical departments throughout the war, he witnessed the collapse of Gaza's healthcare system firsthand: destroyed hospitals, shortages of essential medicines, patients unable to access treatment, and lives lost to conditions that could otherwise have been treated.
In this deeply moving conversation, he recounts his evacuation from Gaza, the emotional cost of leaving his family, and the shock of arriving in a world so different from the one he left behind.
He also explains why he continues teaching medical students in Gaza remotely, his plans to pursue further clinical training in the UK, and his determination to return with the knowledge and experience needed to help rebuild his country's healthcare system.
His education is not a privilege. It is a responsibility.
This is a conversation about resilience, sacrifice, the right to healthcare, and the determination of one doctor to keep serving his people despite unimaginable circumstances.
A CALL FOR SUPPORT
Dr Atallah is seeking connections with surgeons, consultants, universities and medical professionals in the UK who can help him access further clinical training and professional opportunities.
