Dr Mohammed Mohammed Fouad Abdulatef was appraised during the week of
10 May 2008 and this consisted of an objective assessment of his medical practice.
The results of that assessment are as follows:-
1 Good Clinical Care

knowledge and skills to take responsibility for safe, effective and independent
clinical decisions in the specialty of orthopaedics and trauma. He is aware of
the limits of his competence and does refer appropriately when necessary to
colleagues. He has the ability to take responsibility for clinical governance
activities, risk management and audit in order to improve the quality of his
service.
2 Relationship with Patients

trust with his patients and their families. He needs to further develop his
interpretation skills and he has a compassionate approach and respect for the
privacy, dignity, cultural and religious beliefs of his patients.
Dr Mohammed Mohammed Fouad Abdulatef understands the principal and
legal aspects of consent and confidentiality.

Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon
11. 3 Maintaining Good Medical Practice
Dr Mohammed Mohammed Fouad Abdulatef takes full responsibility for
keeping up to date in his own specialty, that being orthopaedics. He has
displayed over the years an intense interest in research, publication and
presentations. He has published more than 30 scientific papers in various
journals including scientific publications in Egypt, Saudi Arabia and the United
Arab Emirates. His work has covered the full gamut of orthopaedic and trauma
and includes papers on infection, intramedullary nailing, fractures, treatment of
hallux valgus, introducing new techniques for ankle instability and he has
reviewed literature on total knee replacement.
Dr Mohammed Mohammed Fouad Abdulatef further maintains his good
medical practice by membership of various societies including AO.
Dr Mohammed Mohammed Fouad Abdulatef is, of course, an Associate
Professor at EL Menia University Hospital in Egypt and is presently working as
Consultant and Head of Orthopaedic Department in Dubai.
4 Teaching, Training, Appraising and Assessing
Dr Mohammed Mohammed Fouad Abdulatef has the potential and has used
that potential to teach and train his junior staff in all of the posts that he has
held including those at his University Hospital, the post he had in Saudi Arabia
and now the post in United Arab Emirates. He is able to teach and train
effectively at all levels of undergraduate and post graduate education. This has
been displayed in his present job where he acts as the leader and co-ordinator
for the Dubai Orthopaedic Club. Dr Mohammed Mohammed Fouad Abdulatef
arranges meetings on at least a monthly basis. They are attended by numerous
orthopaedic surgeons from all parts of the Emirates. Guest speakers are invited
and discussions take place to help further dispersion of knowledge amongst
those orthopaedic surgeons.
Dr Mohammed Mohammed Fouad Abdulatef I believe is capable of judging the
competence and professional attitudes as displayed by other people and able
to help and guide those who do not have sufficient competence to progress in
their chosen career.
5 Working with Colleagues
Dr Mohammed Mohammed Fouad Abdulatef works constructively with all
professional groups which is to the benefit of the patients. He is mindful of the
priorities that are set by the hospital management and does at all times try of
maintain high standards.

12. 6 Probity and Health
I have no reason to believe that Dr Mohammed Mohammed Fouad Abdulatef
would act in other way in his personal and professional than to maintain public
trust in the medical profession. I believe that he is diligent in writing reports,
giving evidence and completing and signing documents in a timely, honest and
conscientious manner. Finally I believe that through his leadership he
encourages others and helps them improve their practice and consequently
provide better treatment for their patients.
