About Aisha A Elfasi

Aisha Elfasi grew up in Jacksonville, Florida and completed her undergraduate studies at the University of North Florida, majoring in Biology. She decided to stay in sunny Florida for medical school and was honored to be able to join the Gator family at the University of Florida College of Medicine. Her outstanding clinical experience as a medical student made her certain that she would love to become a double Gator by completing residency here. She is thrilled for this new journey and looks forward to finally becoming a neurologist! She is interested in exploring potential subspecialties including Neuroimmunology, Neuro-ophthalmology, Vascular Neurology, and Neurophysiology. Aisha is excited to contribute to the field of neurology and envisions a future career in academic neurology where she will help patients through clinical practice, research, and medical education. In her free time, Aisha enjoys cooking, baking, spending time with her family, and exploring Florida’s beautiful sights and nature trails.
