From Learner to Leader: Dr. Md Abu Bakar Siddiq’s Remarkable Journey in Rheumatology

At Learna | Diploma MSc, some students go above and beyond - not only completing their courses with distinction but also returning to guide others on the same path. One such success story is Dr. Md Abu Bakar Siddiq, now a dedicated tutor on our online Rheumatology programmes.

Dr. Abu began his journey with Learna after completing his physical medicine residency in Bangladesh, driven by a deepening interest in rheumatic diseases. He earned both his Postgraduate Diploma and MSc in Rheumatology with distinction and has since achieved international recognition, becoming the only person in his country to hold both RMSK and ARDMS MSK ultrasound certifications.

Now an associate professor and practising clinician, Dr. Abu brings unmatched experience and academic passion to his role as a tutor - mentoring students worldwide and helping them navigate the complexities of rheumatology just as he once did.
