Dr. Carole Azzam MD - born in the city of Liege in Belgium, where I grew up and studied medicine at the University of Liège. During my senior year, I was accepted at the prestigious Harvard Medical School in Boston, and undertook surgery internships.
My surgical training began with three years of general surgery (gastrointestinal, vascular and orthopedic surgeries), followed by three years of plastic, reconstructive and aesthetic surgery, surgery for burns, hand surgery and microsurgery.
I had the opportunity to spend a one-year internship with world-renowned Professors Jacques Baudet and Dominique Martin, in Bordeaux, France.
After my assistantship, I was fortunate to work for Professor Albert De Mey, in the Brugmann Hospital, Brussels, Belgium, renowned for breast surgery.
