About

Philosophy of care

I treat my patients and families the way I want to be treated, applying shared decision-making and evidence-based care. The old saying that prevention is better than cure is probably most important in pediatrics. I like to emphasize how critical it is to help prevent illness with regular medical checkups and a healthy lifestyle. Good habits formed during childhood years can go a long way in preventing adult illnesses.

Why I entered medicine

From early childhood I was attracted to the medical field. I always wanted to be like my doctor and help my patients and families the same way. During medical school I chose pediatrics because children are among the most vulnerable patients. I also studied epidemiology to help me evaluate the medical literature critically.

Community involvement

In India, I was regularly involved in charity health camps.

Personal interests

I like to spend time with my family, and love to cook. I am also a big fan of Arsenal F.C. and watch most of their games.
