Dr. Ayesha Miftha
Experience: | 1 year |
Education: | Stanley Medical College |
Academic degree: | MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery) |
Area of specialization: | I am mostly drawn to patient care that’s not just fast but also feels human, u knw? My work's grounded in things like accurate diagnossis, catching signs early before they spiral, and figuring out treatment that's not just generic for everyone. I don’t just focus on illness—I spend a lotta time listening to ppl who’re like, “Doc, I just feel off, but don’t know why.” That stuff matters, cuz usually there is something there.
I try to keep things flexible—whether it’s dealing with coughs that just won’t go or long-term stuff like sugar n pressure issues. I don’t see medicine as just fixing what's broken... to me it’s more about working with ppl—like really looking at diet, sleep, stress, patterns. One plan won’t work for everyone, and I do my best to adjust things around real life.
Also yeah, I try keeping it simple to understand—I’m not big on throwing medical jargons at ppl unless they ask! Preventive care’s kinda a big deal for me too coz it saves so much mess later. Health advice, regular checks, just having a doc you can reach out to without stress—that’s what I want to offer.
Not perfect at everything but I care a lot. Maybe too much sometimes!! But that’s okay. |
Achievements: | I am someone who really liked getting my hands into things early. During med school, I volunteered at rural helth camps where we got to help more than 500 ppl—lotta cases you’d never see in textbooks, honestly. I also was part of this community survey on non-comm diseases, which kinda made me think about health beyond hospitals. Academics-wise, managed to get honors in pharma, microbio... and yeah, got a distinction in patho & ENT too, which was cool but also pretty stressful ngl!! |
I am Dr. Ayesha Miftha and honestly the one thing that drives me in medicine is this constant thought—how do we stop ppl from getting sick before they get there. I'm a general practitioner yeah, but I'm def more drawn towards preventive care n stuff like public health. It’s not just about treating fevers or random aches (tho that’s part of it too obviously), but trying to get ppl to think about what they eat, how they sleep, move, stress... all of it adds up, and most ppl don't realise till much later. I kinda see my role as a mix of being a doctor, educator and sometimes a bit of a motivator too tbh. Whether it’s reminding someone their blood pressure isn’t "just a number" or explaining how lifestyle changes actually work—there’s always a conversation happening. That’s why I started sharing tips and bits online. Didn’t expect much but turned out ppl really want straight talk, nothing fancy. In daily practice, I focus on things like chronic illness prevention, early symptom spotting, diet-linked disorders (they’re everywhere now), and overall wellness. I'm not claiming to knw everything—no doc shud—but I do try keeping up with new research and evidence, esp on stuff like metabolic health, gut issues, and mental well-being coz they’re all so connected now. Also gotta say, sometimes the smallest advice makes the biggest difference. Just helping a person realise they needed water or better sleep instead of more meds... That part? Feels kinda underrated but powerful. Anyway, my goal’s pretty clear—to make health feel less scary, more human, and def more doable. And yeah, if you’re someone who’s tired of generic “take this pill” kind of advice, we’ll probably get along just fine.
