Dr. Muhammad Abdur Razzak

Dr. Muhammad Abdur Razzak is a kidney medicine specialist and transplant nephrologist based in Dhaka, Bangladesh. His practice focuses on the medical management of kidney disease — from early detection of proteinuria and declining kidney function to long-term care of patients living with dialysis or a kidney transplant. Patients in and around the capital consult him for second opinions on complex nephrology problems as well as for routine follow-up of chronic conditions.

He holds an MBBS from AFMC, an MD in Nephrology and the FASN (USA) designation, and he strengthened his clinical training through a two-year nephrology fellowship at the University of Toronto in Canada. That international exposure, combined with his academic role as Assistant Professor of Nephrology, shapes a practice that blends evidence-based protocols with practical, day-to-day guidance for patients and families.

Doctor Overview

Education & Training

Dr. Muhammad Abdur Razzak completed his MBBS at AFMC and later obtained an MD in Nephrology. He also holds FASN (USA), a fellowship designation from the American Society of Nephrology. Between July 2022 and June 2024 he worked as a Clinical Fellow in Nephrology at the University of Toronto, Canada, rotating through Sunnybrook Health Sciences Center, St. Michael Hospital and Toronto General Hospital — three high-volume teaching hospitals with active transplant and dialysis services.

Alongside his clinical fellowship, he is a Member of the American Society of Transplantation, and he received dedicated training in Diabetic Kidney Diseases at the Chellaram Diabetes Institute in India. This combination of transplant nephrology exposure and focused diabetes-related kidney training is relevant for the large number of Bangladeshi patients whose kidney damage is driven by long-standing diabetes and hypertension.

Career & Current Position

He currently serves as Assistant Professor of Nephrology under the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MoHFW). The role combines inpatient nephrology care, outpatient clinics and teaching responsibilities, which means his patients benefit from a clinician who is also actively involved in training the next generation of physicians.

His chamber-based practice is largely built around long-term follow-up: reviewing reports, adjusting medications, planning dialysis access and monitoring transplant recipients.
