Biography:
Dr. Shibikom earned his medical degree as a gold medalist in 2006 from University of Gondar, Gondar, Ethiopia. Just after working in Department of Surgery as a lecturer at University of Gondar for a year, he quickly joined the residency program there. Through out his stay in Gondar, he used to see a lot of clients suffering from different cardiac ailments visiting the hospital at regular basis just to get their drugs refilled. Since there was no readily available cardiac surgical service in Ethiopia, they just have to go through the natural history of the illness. Having seen and felt their agony, he entered the world of cardiac surgery. Being a pioneer cardiac surgeon in Ethiopia, he was so passionate and committed to persue all the knowledge and skill required to become an independent and resourceful Adult and Pediatric Cardiac Surgeon for his country. So that is why he went to Narayana Institute of Cardiac Sciences in India for a three year fellowship. Since mid of 2017 and until now he is practicing cardiac surgery in Ethiopia with all the challenges.
