د. عبدالفتاح بن سعيد القحطاني

As President of the Saudi Physical Therapy Association, Vice-Chair of the National Committee for Medical Rehabilitation Standards (CBAHI), and Head of Community Engagement at college of Applied Medical Sciences at King Saud University, I build high-trust partnerships across ministries, health systems, universities, and private providers. Experienced in MoUs/alliances, stakeholder engagement, and bid/proposal leadership; fluent in aligning partnerships with accreditation, quality, and strategic transformation agendas.

Corporate governance leader with over 15 years of experience driving strategic transformation and compliance excellence across high-impact organizations in health, education, and private sectors. Certified in project management and corporate governance with a strong track record in designing and enforcing governance systems, performance auditing, and enterprise risk frameworks. Proven success in strategic planning, stakeholder governance, and regulatory alignment within public and private entities.

In addition to my governance and leadership roles, I bring extensive teaching experience as an Associate Professor, mentoring undergraduate, postgraduate, and professional learners in cardiopulmonary rehabilitation, clinical reasoning, and evidence-based practice. My research expertise is reflected in multiple peer-reviewed publications, supervision of MSc and PhD students, and active leadership in large-scale national projects on cardiac and pulmonary rehabilitation, chronic disease management, and health system transformation. Clinically, I have over a decade of hands-on experience in cardiopulmonary and critical care rehabilitation, with a strong record in designing and implementing individualized rehabilitation programs that improve patient outcomes and quality of life.

This integration of governance, academic, research, and clinical expertise uniquely positions me to bridge policy, education, research, and practice—ensuring that strategic visions translate into measurable impact across health and rehabilitation sectors.
