ABOUT
DR ASHIQA ATIYA
I am a Specialist Anesthesiologist, with a main interest in Neuroanaesthesiology and Pain Management.
I finished my undergraduate and postgraduate studies at the University of the Witwatersrand. While involved in anaesthetising neurosurgical patients, I noticed a strong need for non-operative and interventional pain management, which is a relatively new field in medicine and currently not addressed adequately in South Africa.
Although not all pain can be cured, all pain can be addressed and I have made it my interest and passion to improve quality of life and functioning of many patients.
