Dr MUNJED AL MUDERIS Walking Free Friday 26 September 6.00 for 6.30pm The extraordinary true story of a young man who fled war-torn Iraq, came to Australia as a refugee by boat, spent months in a detention centre and went on to become a pioneering surgeon. Dr Munjed Al Muderis was born in Iraq to a wealthy but ageing father. Born and raised in Iraq, he studied medicine but had to flee when Sadaam’s reign of terror began. He is now one of only five surgeons in the world performing oseo-integration, a radical new treatment for those who have lost limbs. Munjed Al Muderis is an orthopaedic surgeon, an Adjunct Clinical Associate Professor in the School of Medicine, Sydney Campus at the University of Notre Dame Australia and a clinical lecturer at Macquarie University and The Australian School Of Advanced Medicine who specialises in hip, knee and trauma surgery.
