Dr Zainab Jiyad

Dr Jiyad qualified from University College London in 2009, achieving a distinction in clinical practice and a certificate of merit in each year of medical school. Her higher specialist dermatology training took place at St George’s Hospital and King’s College Hospital, London. During her training, she undertook a higher research degree at the Queensland Institute of Medical Research in Australia. This research degree, which looked at actinic keratosis in organ transplant recipients, was highly commended by the British Association of Dermatologists (Clive Archer THESIS fellowship) and led to the award of a Research MD in 2019. 

With a prominent role in dermatology practice as well as clinical research, Dr Jiyad is also a member of the British Association of Dermatologists and The Royal College of Physicians. She has published widely in high-impact medical journals and is also the accomplished author of the Wiley published textbook, “Handbook of Skin Disease Management”. In additional to her private practice, Dr Jiyad holds a consultant dermatologist post at St George’s University Hospital and an honorary senior lecturer position at the Population Health Research Institute.

Here at One Hatfield Hospital, we are always pleased to hear what our patient’s think of the service they have received. Below is a snapshot of the some of the excellent feedback we have received for Dr Jiyad.

Dr Zainab was wonderful, she made me feel at ease and was really great at her job. Very kind and very reassuring, I will certainly be back if anything crops up again. 

Dr Zainab Jiyad was exceptionally nice – such a friendly, kind, reassuring person. I didn’t actually need the mole removing once she’d seen it in person. However I’m extremely glad that I went to see her. Thank you! 

Zainab chatted to me through the procedure, making me feel as relaxed as was possible.
