Hi! I’m Ashkhan

I am an Anesthesiology resident at Cook County Hospital in Chicago Illinois. I completed medical school at the Carle Illinois College of Medicine at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, the world’s first engineering medical school.

My professional interests include combining my computer science, biomaterials, pharmacology, and engineering background to develop innovative solutions in interventional pain medicine, anesthesiology, neurology, and ophthalmology. I am passionate about volunteer work and charitable causes, especially those involving the underserved. I am also interested in developing interactive educational experiences through software design for students to learn in new and exciting ways. Finally, I want to build a practice where I spend sufficient time listening and caring for my patients.

Thanks for visiting my website!
