الدكتور عبد الجليل البرزنجي مواليد العراق1932
استاذ طب الاطفال في كلية طب بغداد
حصل على شهادة الدكتوراه في طب الاطفال من جامعة شفيلد في المملكة المتحدة عام
1978.
Dr Abdul Jelil Al-Barzanji was born in Baghdad on 4th April 1932. He was one of 7 children. He obtained his medical degree from Ankara in Turkey following which he worked at Kinder hospital in Berlin whilst obtaining his masters. In 1966 he moved to England to work as a House Officer in Western Bank Children's Hospital in Sheffield. Between 1967 and 1968 he worked as an SHO at Queen Mary's Hospital for Children, where he obtained his DCH and met his wife Sandra. He then worked for one year at Great Ormond Street in London as an SHO, under Professor Bonham-Carter. Between 1969 and 1972 he was a Senior Paediatric Registrar at Sheffield Northern General Hospital under the supervision of Dr Gordon, where he obtained his DPTH. While working he demonstrated on Tomorrow's World (a TV programme) the first resuscitaire to be used in the UK. He moved to Baghdad with his wife in 1972 and worked at Medical City Hospital as a Consultant Paediatrician and lecturer. He returned to the UK in 1974 working at Western Bank Children's Hospital in Sheffield, to complete a 3 year PhD under the supervision of Professor John Emery, into cot deaths (SIDS). He then returned to Baghdad, Iraq where he practiced as a Paediatrician until his retirement in 2001.
During his years in Iraq he was much loved by the public whether they were his students, patients or colleagues. Many remember him fondly and remember his weekly programme "Al Usra wal Tifil" during the 1980's. He also helped set up annual sports days at Medical City with students competing against their lecturers. These events were enjoyed by all, and he often challenged his students to beat him at the 400metre run. He also enjoyed playing volleyball for the medical school and took part in matches with students and other teaching departments.
We his family, have received many warm wishes and everyone has fond memories of him. We would like to send our heartfelt thanks to everyone for their kind words.
He is survived by his wife Sandra, son Faris, daughters Inas, Reem and Rena and 7 grandchildren.
