Begum passed her SSC in 1977 from Kishori Mohan Girls School and HSC from Murari Chand College in 1979.

In 1996 she joined and was promoted to senior registrar in the Prince Sultan Cardiac Centre in Riyadh, KSA.

She realised at an early age the importance of serving the people of her country, and she dedicates each day of her life working towards that singular goal.

[4] Begum can easily be considered a pioneer in her field as she paved the way for Interventional Cardiology in Bangladesh, making the diagnoses of congenital heart diseases a lot less tedious.

She is the founding chairperson and current VP of the Scientific Committee of Pediatric Cardiac Society of Bangladesh (PCSB).

Dr. Begum has collaborated with many charitable organisations which include Little hearts, Muntada Aid and Qatar Red Crescent Charity, to help the women and children of Bangladesh.

The foundation partakes in the weekly free Friday clinic in Begum's paternal village of Borlekha, Moulvibazar which is overseen by her eldest brother Mr. A.K.M.

As a sign of encouragement the WM foundation awards gold medals and honorariums to up-and-coming pediatricians.
