Beebe welcomes two inpatient care providers
Beebe Healthcare recently announced the appointment of two new inpatient care providers, both of whom work at the Margaret H. Rollins Lewes Campus and are dedicated to providing comprehensive care for admitted patients.
Imtiaz Khokhar, MD, FACP, FHM, is a hospitalist who cares for patients during the processes of admission, treatment, radiology, lab workups and discharge. He offers consultative support to physicians from various subspecialties as patients with complex medical issues present for care. Khokhar has been practicing since 1996 and was initially focused on internal medicine before transitioning his focus to hospitalist-based care.
Throughout his career, Khokhar has worked for various respected hospitals and healthcare organizations in New York, Georgia and Florida before relocating to Sussex County. Prior to joining Beebe, he was a member of the Travel Team Hospital group, which gave him opportunities to work with hospitals in various cities in New York, as well as with Bayhealth.
Khokhar earned his medical degree at the University of Karachi, Sindh Medical College in Pakistan. He completed an internship and residency training at the Albert Einstein School of Medicine/Flushing Hospital Medical Center, followed by a clinical fellowship focused on geriatric medicine at New York Medical College/Westchester County Medical Center.
“I am proud to be part of Beebe Healthcare, where I have an opportunity to leverage my knowledge and expertise to provide a high level of quality care for patients, with focus on helping each optimize their quality of life,” said Khokhar.
Rudolph “Rudy” Ansah, MS, RN, ACNP-BC, is a certified registered nurse practitioner, new to the intensive care unit at Beebe. He cares for critically ill patients, including those who require intubation, central and arterial lines, and complex treatments such as paracentesis and thoracentesis. Prior to joining Beebe, Ansah served as a pulmonary critical care nurse practitioner at TidalHealth, where he was part of an intensive care team managing a 24-bed unit.
He collaborated with ICU intensivists, cardiothoracic surgeons, neurosurgeons and trauma specialists to provide comprehensive care for critically ill patients in need of a wide range of medical interventions. Earlier in his career, Ansah worked for Select Specialty Hospital and Riverside Methodist Hospital, both located in Columbus, Ohio.
Ansah earned his master’s degree to become an acute care nurse practitioner at Wright State University in Dayton, Ohio. He is also a graduate of Ohio University, where he earned a bachelor of science degree in nursing, and Central Ohio Technical College, where he completed an associate degree in nursing. Ansah is certified by the American Nurses Credentialing Center and was awarded a Certificate of Authority from the Board of Nursing.
“I was motivated to join Beebe Healthcare because I feel the organization is the ideal place to grow as a healthcare professional,” Ansah said.
