Dr. Hajra Turabi

Hajra is a graduate researcher at Unity Health Toronto working under the supervision of Dr. Jennifer Watt, supported by the Graduate Training Award. Her research focuses on fear of falling among older adults, evaluating evidence-based interventions that promote mobility, independence, and quality of life. Trained as a Doctor of Pharmacy with hands-on clinical experience in hospital and community pharmacy settings, Hajra has first-hand insight into the real-world consequences of mobility loss and fear of falling for aging patients. This clinical perspective strongly motivates her commitment to rehabilitation, patient-centered care, and knowledge translation that supports interdisciplinary teams and improves healthcare delivery for older adults.
