Hammam Alloh (Arabic: همام اللوح; c. 1987 – November 12, 2023) was a Palestinian nephrologist at Al-Shifa Hospital in the Gaza Strip. Hammam Alloh undertook secondary school education in Gaza before leaving Gaza to study medicine and qualify as a nephrologist. He returned to Gaza after 14 years. On his return, he was the only nephrology specialist in Gaza. After the Israeli bombing of the Gaza Strip began during the Gaza war in October 2023, Alloh gave several interviews to Western media about the situation of medicine in Gaza. On October 26 he gave an extended interview to Maya Rosen of Jewish Currents: This is not the medicine I thought I would be practicing. I always wanted to progress in my field—to learn more, to teach more. In Gaza, I haven’t been able to do that. I hope to raise my kids to be ambitious—not to think about war, missiles, rockets. Every day, I see a fear in their eyes that I can’t do much about.
