Dr. Shalaw Rasoul

Dr. Shalaw Rasoul is a podiatrist with over 14 years of clinical experience, based at American Hospital Dubai. He trained at Karolinska Institute in Sweden for his foundational degree in podiatric medicine, and has completed postgraduate training in podiatric surgery and ultrasound in Spain, along with specialist diplomas in team sports medicine, local anaesthesia, and prescription medicines for podiatric practice from institutions in Spain and the UK.

Dr. Rasoul treats the full spectrum of foot and ankle problems across all age groups. His main areas of focus include diabetic foot care (assessment, wound management, and vascular/neurological screening), sports-related injuries (shin splints, calf pain, overuse injuries, gait problems), structural issues (bunions, flat feet, high arches, heel spurs, Morton's neuroma), and common conditions like corns, calluses, ingrown toenails, and fungal infections. He performs foot and ankle immobilisation, prescribes custom orthotics and medical footwear, and uses gait analysis to improve walking patterns and overall movement efficiency.

He is fluent in English, Arabic, Swedish, and Kurdish, making him accessible to a diverse patient base. His approach combines preventive care with direct treatment of lower-limb disorders, and he is particularly well-suited for patients with diabetes, athletes, and anyone experiencing foot pain or walking difficulties.
