I extend my sincerest gratitude to Professor Dr. Mohamed El Sayad, Radiology Consultant, for his invaluable guidance and unwavering support throughout my career journey.
As a specialist doctor with prior experience in UK NHS hospitals, I sought to return to the UK after a brief period in my home country. Four months ago, I received a job offer from a hospital as a specialist doctor. After successfully navigating the interview process, I was informed that the department faced funding constraints and proposed replacing the specialist post with a speciality post, inquiring about my willingness to proceed.
I immediately sought counsel from Dr. El Sayad. He imparted invaluable wisdom, emphasizing my right to pursue the specialist position given my extensive experience and qualifications. Furthermore, he equipped me with exceptional negotiation strategies. As a result, I successfully advocated for the specialist position and secured the appropriate pay scale code, resulting in a significant salary increase of £27,000.
Following these negotiations, the recruitment team offered me the specialist position, acknowledging my years of experience and maximizing my earning potential. Moreover, Dr. El Sayad's guidance extended beyond salary negotiations. He advised me on effectively communicating my needs and asserting my rights professionally. This approach led the department manager to offer a relocation expenses package of £7,000, recognizing my status as an overseas doctor.
This job offer was a significant achievement, exceeding my expectations. Concurrently, I received another job offer from a second hospital as a locum consultant. However, given the typically short duration of locum contracts (usually a maximum of one year), I sought Dr. El Sayad's guidance. My primary concern was securing a more stable position and avoiding frequent relocations.
Employing the negotiation skills he imparted, I successfully secured a two-year locum consultant position, representing a significant career advancement. This position also offers a higher salary, exceeding the previous offer by £13,000.
I unequivocally attribute my success to Dr. Al Sayad's invaluable guidance and unwavering support. His mentorship instilled in me the confidence and resilience to navigate the challenges I encountered. I diligently followed his advice, meticulously documenting our discussions and implementing his strategies during interviews.
I am immensely proud of my achievements and wholeheartedly recommend seeking Dr. El Sayad's guidance to anyone aiming to maximize their potential within the NHS through effective interview preparation, CV enhancement, and career advancement. His unwavering kindness, professionalism, and dedication to his mentees make him an exceptional role model.
I am eternally grateful for his exceptional mentorship and the profound impact he has had on my career over the past five months. This review serves as a testament to his invaluable contributions and a valuable resource for others seeking his guidance.

Dr Mohamed Elsayad was simply outstanding! He was professional and friendly at the same time. I was very nervous and scared. He made sure I was comfortable and explained everything in detail. The procedure itself was painless despite being complex. Massive thank you Dr Elsayad!
