About Me
As a practicing physician, I'm currently dual clinical faculty at The Ohio State University and Nationwide Children's Hospital emergency departments as well as the ACLS medical director at Ohio State. My clinical interests include education, pediatrics, emergency ophthalmology, and ultrasound.
I completed my undergraduate studies at the University of Maryland, Eastern Shore, and medical school at Duke University, followed by an emergency medicine residency at Ohio State. I then completed a pediatric emergency medicine fellowship at Nationwide Children's Hospital.
I'm also an assistant clinical professor of emergency medicine and pediatrics at The Ohio State University College of Medicine.

Consulting and Related Relationships
At The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, we support a faculty member’s research and consulting in collaboration with medical device, research and/or drug companies because a faculty member’s expertise can guide important advancements in the practice of medicine and improve patient care. In order to provide effective management of these relationships, the University requires annual disclosures from all faculty members with external interests related to their University responsibilities.
As of 09/30/2024, Dr. El-Shammaa has reported no relationships with companies or entities.
