Dr. Abdul Shararah

Graduated in Medicine from the University of Calgary (Canada) and in Pharmacy from Purdue University (Indiana, United States), Dr. Abdul-Wahab H. Shararah has a unique academic background that combines deep pharmaceutical knowledge with advanced studies in neuroscience and a plastic surgery residency at the prestigious McGill University, in Montreal.

Always focused on refining his skills, Dr. Shararah has completed advanced fellowships in hand surgery, microsurgery, and peripheral nerve surgery. These sub-specializations were completed at renowned institutions such as the University of Toronto and the University of California in San Diego. He has also participated in expert gatherings in rhinoplasty, otoplasty (plastic surgery to correct deformities or improve the appearance of the ears), and facial anatomy in cities such as Miami, Amsterdam, and Verona.

In his professional practice, he has treated cases ranging from severe trauma to sophisticated aesthetic interventions and is, without a doubt, an excellent addition to the talented team at Avana Plastic Surgery. His résumé also highlights active medical licenses in Texas, North Dakota, California, and Wisconsin, as well as certifications in Saudi Arabia, Europe, and Canada.
