Get to know Dr. Rahman better with three quick questions!

Why did you pursue a career in this field?

Rahman: I can’t think of another specialty where you get to interact with so many different fields in medicine, from pediatrics to neurosurgery and everything in between. It’s such a blessing to get to do so much for your colleagues and your patients!

What do you like to do when you’re not at work?

Rahman: I love reading fantasy books (currently making my way through “Dungeon Crawler Carl and The Stormlight Archive”), and my partner and I try to cook a new dish from the New York Times every single week.

What is your favorite holiday, and why?

Rahman: I love Thanksgiving more than anything. Growing up, my favorite plate consisted of mac and cheese and tandoori turkey. Plus, I’m a sucker for a good deal, so Black Friday afterwards was always a blast and a half.
