About Talal Fazmin
I completed my undergraduate medical training at the University of Cambridge in 2021, with an additional intercalated research degree in Physiology. I subsequently undertook the UK Foundation Programme in the East of England Deanery, rotating through a busy DGH in FY1 and then through the regional tertiary Cardiothoracic centre in FY2. I applied for, and got into ST1 training in my first attempt, straight from FY2 in one of the most competitive years of Cardiothoracic Surgery recruitment – 298 applicants for 11 spots. I ranked third and am continuing my training in the East of England Deanery at the Royal Papworth Hospital in Cambridge. I am also passionate about education – I am a Teaching By-Fellow at the University of Cambridge’s Churchill College, and I teach anatomy and physiology to undergraduate Medicine students and Natural Science students.
