Mr. Salhab is an Oncoplastic Breast Surgeon based at Bradford Teaching Hospitals and the Yorkshire Clinic. He also serves as an Honorary Clinical Senior Lecturer at the University of Leeds. After graduating with an MD in 1996, he completed both basic and advanced surgical training in the UK. His specialized training in Oncoplastic Breast Surgery took place in London, Yorkshire, Paris, and Brussels.

In 2011, Mr. Salhab was awarded a Master of Surgery (MS) degree from the University of London for his research in breast cancer molecular biology. He has published extensively in the field of breast cancer and has presented his findings at national and international conferences. Additionally, he earned a Postgraduate Diploma in Oncoplastic Breast Surgery from the University of East Anglia, following a two-year specialized course.

In 2013, Mr. Salhab achieved the Certificate of Completion of Training (CCT) and was appointed as a Consultant Oncoplastic Breast Surgeon at Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.
