Background

Cheerful but anxious doctor, Rashid is the youngest of a large family. His sibling are all high-flyers so he feels he needs to prove himself but doesn’t have the confidence to back himself up. Still living at home, with his overprotected mother, Rash sees his position at Holby a chance to reinvent himself.

Rash starts a relationship with porter Gemma but it’s yet to see if it will stand the test of time.
