Dr. Mustafa Abbas is a Consultant Interventional Radiologist at Burjeel Specialty Hospital in Abu Dhabi, bringing 16 years of clinical experience. He trained in the UK, where he completed his interventional radiology fellowship at Sheffield Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and worked as a vascular interventional radiology consultant before relocating to the UAE. He holds the European Board of Interventional Radiology (EBIR) certification and is a Fellow of the Royal College of Radiologists.
Dr. Abbas specializes in both emergency and elective vascular procedures, treating conditions such as acute bleeding, blood clots in deep veins, peripheral artery disease, and aortic aneurysms. He performs a wide range of minimally invasive catheter-based procedures including embolization (stopping bleeding or blocking abnormal vessels), angioplasty and stenting to open narrowed arteries, filter insertion for clot prevention, and catheter placement for dialysis access. He also manages non-vascular conditions through image-guided techniques, including biopsies, drainage procedures, and stent placement in the digestive system and urinary tract.
Dr. Abbas is a good fit for patients who need complex vascular procedures without open surgery, emergency bleeding control, or image-guided diagnosis and treatment of internal conditions. His training in the UK NHS system and published work on vascular interventions demonstrate a commitment to evidence-based practice.
Special interests: carotid artery stenting, minimally invasive vascular treatment, endoscopic imaging.
