Waheed Arian spent his childhood fleeing the war zones of
Afghanistan. After recovering from an almost fatal illness at a
Pakistan refugee camp as a child, he set his sights on becoming a
doctor. Putting his life in the hands of people smugglers, Waheed
eventually reached the UK and studied medicine at Cambridge. He now
saves lives as an NHS A&E medic and is the founder of charity,
TeleHEAL, providing volunteer medical support to people around the
world. His book, In the Wars is out now.
