Abubakar Abdul-Rahman

Dr. Abdul-Rahman was born in the picturesque surroundings of Tanzania during the 1970s. In 1998, when he relocated to the United States, he was determined to delve into the esteemed realm of Medicine. Committed to understanding the fundamentals of patient care, he began his journey as a CNA. Before long, he was juggling a part-time role as a Nurse Practitioner at the UW Medical Center, while simultaneously pursuing his doctorate at The University of Washington.

Two years shy of completing his DNP program at UW, he embraced the role of a Community Nurse, extending care directly to homes of those unable to access nearby clinics due to a lack of resources.

Upon earning his degree in 2015, Dr. Abdul-Rahman recognized a pressing need for reform in the medical system. His experiences as a Community Nurse unveiled the disparities faced by underprivileged communities, many of whom were unable to access standard clinics or were left underserved. Acknowledging that numerous patients were being overlooked by the prevailing system, he felt compelled to act. By establishing his own clinic, Dr. Abdul-Rahman aspired to offer tailored treatment plans, serve the uninsured, and ultimately bridge the healthcare divide in the community.
