Dr. Abdul-Rahim graduated from Drexel University College of Medicine with his MD in 2010.

Dr. Abdul-Rahim feels that every person deserves to be able to do what they love. Thus, in developing individualized treatment plans, he gives every patient his best and complete focus. His philosophy is “Do the right thing, do the best you can, don’t lose sight of what’s important, and never stop caring”. Dr. Abdul-Rahim and StrideCare believe a patient’s care does not begin when the doctor and patient meet. Rather, it involves the entire team including the patient plus all office staff, nurses, and physicians.
In his free time, Dr. Abdul-Rahim enjoys outdoor time with his family. They swim, bike, hike and play sports together. They love to play and get silly! He also enjoys trying new restaurants for date nights with his wife, game nights with friends, and watching movies.
Dr. Abdul-Rahim is currently accepting new patients and warmly welcomes them to StrideCare.
