Hello, I am Dr Hannah Nazri. I am an NIHR Academic Clinical Fellow and specialty trainee doctor in obstetrics & gynaecology at the University of Warwick, where I combine my passion for clinical and academic work in gynaecological health.
As the Director and Founder of the Malaysian Doctors for Women & Children and a member of the Board of Advisors for the Asia Network to End FGM/C, I am passionate about ending practices that discriminate against women and children in Southeast Asian communities. I am dedicated to synergising my medical vocation with philanthropic endeavours, spanning from fostering youth education to championing women’s rights advocacy.
