Dr Mohammad Abdullah

A GP who came up through orthopaedics.

Before he trained as a GP, Dr Mohammad Abdullah spent three years in trauma and orthopaedics. It is an unusual route into general practice and a useful one. He treats joints, injuries and musculoskeletal pain with a confidence most GPs do not have, and does joint injections and minor procedures in clinic, often the same day.

The rest of his work is built around finding things early, while they are still simple to deal with. He runs the full range of general practice alongside it, from same-day illness to long-term conditions and mental health, and is trained to the highest level in safeguarding.

He consults in English, Urdu, Hindi and Punjabi, and practises lifestyle medicine much as he lives, usually on a bike or up a hill at the weekend. Patients tend to leave understanding their own health better than when they arrived.

Procedures

Joint injection and minor surgery

“Came in about my knee from running. He injected it there and then, no referral, no six week wait. I was back on the trails the next weekend.”

“He picked up something in my bloods I would never have known to check. Caught early, dealt with, done.”
