“I always wanted to become a pediatrician and care for children in need,” Mohammad said. “I was raised in Kurdistan, watching the suffering of children with kidney disease because of the lack of specialty care made me decide to pursue a career in pediatric nephrology.”
Born and raised in the Kurdistan region of Iraq, Mohammad earned a bachelor’s degree in medicine and a bachelor’s degree in general surgery in 2010. She worked as an intern physician and general practitioner at hospitals and clinics in and around Erbil city, Iraq, (population 1.5 million) before completing a pediatric residency at Rapareen Pediatric Teaching Hospital in 2015.
Mohammad moved to the United States in 2015, and began a pediatric residency at Michigan State University's Hurley Medical Center in Flint, Mich. After completing her residency in 2018, Mohammad remained in Michigan to complete a pediatric nephrology fellowship at Wayne State University's Children's Hospital of Michigan in Detroit. She is fluent in English, Arabic and Kurdish.
