He also obtained a diploma in Biomechanics from ULB university of Brussels and has been awarded the best scientific research by the “Lejeune et Lechien” foundation of Liege University.
For 24 years he had a highly successful career as a senior consultant in Belgium with intensive clinical activities and worked as a visitor surgeon in the Middle East. He is one of the pioneers in his field and developed his own department of joint replacement with more than 500 knee and hip replacement surgeries a year. In 2014, Dr. Oussama moved to the UAE where he practised at a key government hospital in Abu Dhabi before moving to a private hospital then to Burjeel hospital as a consultant and head of orthopaedic department. He joined Mediclinic in January 2025 to establish a specialised hip and knee centre.
