Professional History
Dr. Ouahed is a pediatric gastroenterologist involved in the clinical care of many complex patients with focus on those with Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD) and immune dysregulations. Her area of expertise is in Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). She attended McGill Medical School and completed her residency at McMaster Children’s Hospital in Canada. She went on to complete her fellowship in pediatric gastroenterology and nutrition, followed by an advanced fellowship in IBD at Boston Children's Hospital, where she now works as an attending physician. Dr. Ouahed is involved in several translational research projects focused on the genetics underlying early onset of IBD.
Dr. Ouahed serves as an expert for the Department of Gastroenterology for Boston Children's Hospital Precision Medicine Service. For more information about the Precision Medicine Service please visit bostonchildrens.org/precisionmed.
