Prof. Dr. AKM Motiur Rahman Bhuiyan

Prof. Dr. AKM Motiur Rahman Bhuiyan is a Professor of Palliative Medicine with academic training in medicine and public health. He completed his MBBS, followed by an MPH and MD in Medicine. His specialty focuses on caring for people living with serious or life-limiting illnesses, with attention to symptom relief and day-to-day comfort.

Palliative medicine is not limited to one particular disease. Patients with advanced cancer, severe neurological disorders, chronic organ diseases and other serious conditions may require this type of care. Pain is one common concern, but symptoms such as breathlessness, nausea, fatigue, poor appetite and sleep difficulties can also need medical attention.

Care in this field may involve more than prescribing medicines. Doctors often consider the patient's physical symptoms, emotional needs and family circumstances when planning support. For example, someone experiencing persistent pain from an advanced illness may need adjustments in medication and regular monitoring rather than a single treatment decision.

Prof. Dr. AKM Motiur Rahman Bhuiyan is associated with Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University in Dhaka, where his chamber is listed. His role as a Professor places him within an academic medical setting as well as his specialist area of palliative medicine.
