Dr. Atwar Hussain
Experience: | 12 years |
Education: | The Tamil Nadu Dr. M.G.R. Medical University |
Academic degree: | MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery) |
Area of specialization: | I am a GP and Sports Physician, kinda floating between two roles but they blend pretty well in real life. In general practice, I handle day-to-day stuff like diabetes, thyroid, BP probs, fevers, gut infections, all that usual mix. Also do a lot with mental stress and burnout which, tbh, more ppl face than they say. I really try to make space for long-term planning, lifestyle shifts, and just helping ppl feel heard instead of rushed.
In sports & exercise medicine, I work with active folks—athletes, yes, but also weekend joggers or office ppl with nagging back pain or joint stiffness that just won’t go. I treat sprains, tendons flaring up, overuse injuries, help plan return-to-play without pushing too hard too fast. Had some solid time with pro teams (football esp), which made me sharp at rehab timelines & movement risk patterns.
I use cupping therapy when it fits, esp. in muscle tension cases. Also into prescribing exercise for fitness & even chronic issues like hypertension. Bit of a believer in the blend—movement, food habits, recovery, mindset. All those tie together way more than we admit. Sometimes it's messy, but that’s real life health. |
Achievements: | I am trained internationally in Sports & Exercise Medicine—did my IOC diploma and also got a certificate in team sports care from Barcelona (that trip still stands out in memory, honestly). Worked as team physcian with a pro football club, where chaos and recovery go hand in hand lol. I’ve spent 9+ yrs juggling clinical GP work and athlete care. Done research in sports science too, plus I’m certified in cupping/hijama which is underrated for muscle tension if you ask me!! |
I am Dr. Atwar Hussain, working as a General Practitioner & Sports Physician with like 9+ yrs of clinical work behind me, mostly in India but with few years of international exposure too. My daily practice is kinda this mix of regular general medicine—your colds, fevers, diabetes follow-ups etc—and this really intense focus on sports-related issues, rehab, overuse injuries, all that movement medicine stuff. I did my master’s in Sports, Exercise & Rehabilitation Medicine at the University of Nottingham, UK... and then also went for a PG Diploma in Sports Medicine via the International Olympic Committie (Switzerland)—that one really sharpened how I look at biomechanics, injury risk and return-to-play protocols. Honestly some of the most eye-opening learning in my career. In the GP part of my job, I work mostly with adults & teens, managing both chronic lifestyle issues and sudden illnesses too. There's a lot of preventive care I try to push, not everyone listens always but it’s important. And on the sports side, I get to see everyone from athletes to runners to people just trying to be active without injuring themselves again and again. I treat ligament injuries, joint sprains, postural problems, repetitive strain stuff like tennis elbow etc. Rehab strategies & functional recovery matter a lot to me. One of the thing I care about most is keeping the approach personalized—not like giving everyone the same advice. Each body’s kinda different. And it’s not just about treating injury either... it’s about helping you stay active in a way that’s sustainable long term. I really try to keep my methods rooted in evidence but not robotic. I don’t want anyone to feel rushed or unheard in consults—health isn't always simple, right? Even after years, I feel like I’m still refining what works best for each person. Holistic care, movement, and trust—these are the parts that shape my style as a doctor. Whether you're a pro player, a gym regular or just tryna stay pain-free day to day... I’m here for that.
