Dear hiring manager

I am writing to express my keen interest in the General Practitioner position at your esteemed organization With a strong clinical foundation and a deep commitment to patient-centered care, I bring hands-on experience in managing a wide spectrum of medical conditions, from acute trauma to chronic disease, in both outpatient and emergency settings. Currently, I serve as the sole physician at Kemba Health Center, where I provide comprehensive care to a diverse, rural population My role involves conducting detailed medical assessments, performing minor procedures, and coordinating treatment plans across departments. I have treated orthopedic and trauma-related cases, led HIV care programs, and initiated public health campaigns focused on prevention and education. These responsibilities have sharpened my ability to work independently, make sound clinical decisions, and collaborate effectively with multidisciplinary teams. I hold certifications in HIV and STI management through CDC-supported training and have mentored medical students from Arba Minch University. I am also deeply invested in evidence-based practice and medical research, believing that continuous learning and data-driven insights are essential to improving patient outcomes. What drives me is the opportunity to make a meaningful impact-whether by restoring health, guiding recovery, or simply listening with empathy. I am excited about the possibility of joining your team and contributing my skills, experience, and dedication to your mission of delivering exceptional care. Thank you for considering my application. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss how I can support your organization and serve your patients with excellence. 

Warm regards, 

Ermias Ayele Desimmie, M.D.
