I am working as a doctor with 3 yrs of experince where most of my time is around managing general OPD and following up patients who comes with wide range of complaints, from small day to day illness to more complex chronic problems. Over the years I have also developed solid clinical exp in handling CKD patients who are on dialysis, which require constant monitoring, adjusting medication and being alert for complications. When I sit with patients in OPD, I focus on detailed history, simple language explanation and treatment that they can follow without confusion. Many of them are anxious or not fully aware of their condition, so I try to bridge that gap with honest communication. With CKD patients I spend time tracking blood reports, fluid balance, BP, anemia control and making sure their dialysis sessions are safe. Sometimes it is not just about the machine or treatment, but also encouraging them to continue lifestyle measures and medication regularly. During these 3 yrs I learnt how important it is to balance clinical skill with patience. Even small errors in communication can affect compliance, and I saw that clearly in OPD. Managing dialysis cases made me realise the value of teamwork, as we work closely with nurses and technicians to give the best outcome. I keep myself open to learning from seniors and updating my knowledge. My work is not flashy but it’s steady and meaningful. Every day in OPD and dialysis unit I see how continuous care builds trust and help patients live better. That is where I find my role, to make sure each patient feel supported and safe while going through treatment.

I am a medical graduate who did my internship in GMC & Hamidiya group of hospital Bhopal, a govt setup where the exposure was pretty intense. That year taught me not just about protocols but about the real side of patient care, dealing with emergencies in casualty, long hours in OPD, monitoring inpatient wards and also assisting in surgical procedures when needed. I even got chance to be part of community health services, which gave me some perspective of how medicine reach people outside the hospital walls. Now I am working as Medical Officer in a govt civil hospital and honestly that role is where all the training came together. Day to day I see very diverse cases, from acute emergencies that need quick action to chronic conditions that require patience and continuity. The skills I learnt in internship—whether inserting IV lines, handling trauma cases, counseling families, or managing a busy ward—are now things I use almost automatically. At the same time, each case is diferent and there is still always something new to think through. One thing I realized is how important balance between clinical skill and communication is. Patients and families often come with confusion, fear, sometimes unrealistic hope. Being able to explain in simple words, being present and steady, matters as much as writing the prescription. In the hospital setting I also coordinate with nurses, junior staff and other specialists which keeps the workflow smoother. I continue to look at myself as a learner. Every shift teaches me something small, like a new way to approach a diabetic patient or subtle signs in a hypertensive case that you don’t want to miss. Being in govt hospital also means resources are not always perfect, so adapting, improvising and still ensuring safe care is a constant part of the work. This path made me appreciate both the science and humanity of medicine in equal measure, and it keeps me grounded in what the real aim is—better health outcomes for people who come to us.

I am working as a doctor in the dept of General Medicine at Sudha Medical College & Hospital, Kota and have about 3 yrs of hands on clinical experience. Most of my days are spent managing wide variety of patients in opd and wards, sometimes common fevers and other times complicated cases that need close monitoring. I learnt early that patients want more than just medicine, they need someone to hear them out properly, explain what is happening in words they can follow and guide them through the treatment without confusion. In my role I handle chronic conditions like diabetes, hypertension, GERD and also acute cases that require quick thinking in emergencies. Managing CKD patients on dialysis was also part of my earlier clinical exposure, which taught me patience and how to balance long term management with day to day care. I try to use evidence based practice always, relying on proper history taking, examination and investigation before forming a plan. At the same time I keep focus on compassionate care because a patient who trust their doctor respond better to therapy. I keep interest in preventive medicine too, counseling patients on lifestyle, diet, exercise and regular follow up. With online consultations now becoming important I also make myself available for patients who can’t reach hospital easily, giving continuity of care even from distance. Communication is something I value, maybe I am not always perfect with words but I make sure the patient leave with clarity about their diagnosis and treatment. Working in a busy govt setup shaped my approach to medicine, making me efficient under pressure, able to make quick clinical decisions when resources are limited. Each case adds to my learning and pushes me to stay updated with current guidelines. I see myself not just as a treating doctor but as someone who walk alongside the patient in their health journey, helping them regain confidence and health step by step.

I am a medical doctor who started my journey in a bit of unusual place, working at Kari Motor speed way race track as track emergency doctor. That was a 6 month role but it taught me more about fast decicions, quick assesment, and handling trauma cases in seconds than I ever imagined. When accidents happen on track there is no time for second thoughts, you learn to trust your training and act immediatly. After that phase I moved into Bishop Alappat Mission hospital where I joined as a Casualty Medical Officer. Here the challanges are different, the flow of patients is constant, accidents, cardiac issues, medical emergencies, some nights felt endless. I learnt to balance clinical judgement with empathy because most patients or families arrive in panic, and my job is to calm and treat at same time. Working in casualty sharpened my emergency medicine skills, from managing airway and resuscitation to stabilizing multi-trauma patients before shifting to ICU or surgery. I also handle OPD spillover when emergency dept gets overloaded, so there’s this constant need to adapt. The exposure I got across both high pressure race track and hospital casualty gave me a wide perspective about patient care. I became more confident in acute care medicine, developed team coordination with nurses and paramedics, and improved my ability to manage high-risk situations. What keeps me going is seeing patients recover, knowing that those few minutes of timely intervention mattered. My focus now is to continue building on this foundation, working in emergency setups where rapid response and clear thinking save lives.

I am a practising pediatric anesthesiologist with around 10 yrs of experience, most of my work revolve around providing safe anesthesia care for children, from newborns to older kids who come in for surgeries big or small. Working with children in operating room is not like adult cases, the physiology, the emotions, even the family anxiety – all of it need different kind of approach. I spend a lot of time making sure that kids are comfortable before going into OT, sometimes its just a smile or few words that calm them down more than any medicine. My clinical training gave me strong knowledge in airway management, pain control, sedation, and monitoring critical parameters during surgery, and day after day I apply that to keep young patients stable through procedures. Over years I have been part of routine as well as high risk surgeries, emergencies where quick action matter most, and long planned operations where careful preparation was the key. I also work closely with surgeons, pediatricians, nurses, explaining risk to parents and helping them understand what to expect, cause I believe good communication is as important as technical skill. My focus is always patient safety, minimising pain, and ensuring smooth recovery, whether its a short dental extraction under GA or complex pediatric surgery. I try to keep myself updated with newer protocols and evidence based guidelines, since anesthesia is one field where details can change outcome drastically. Every child I see remind me why precision, patience and compassion have to go together. Being in this field for a decade shaped my outlook as a doctor, taught me to handle stress and still stay calm for the sake of the little one on table.

I am a medical graduate and I completed my degree from a reputable institution where I also went through the mandatory one year rotatory internship that exposed me to almost every dept of clinical medicine. Those months were long and some days felt never ending but I got real hands on experiance in OPDs, wards, even emergency and minor procedures. What stayed with me is not only the knowledge of disease but the way patients look at their own illness. I learnt early that treating just a symptom or single diagnosis isnt enough, the real challenge is to see the patient as a whole, to understand how their lifestyle, family, stress, small daily habits all play into recovery. Sometimes the answer is simple treatment, sometimes it is a mix of counselling, preventive steps and medicine. I still carry that approach in my daily practice. When I sit with a patient I try not to rush, I want to hear the small details, the part they think unimportant. Because often those parts give the clue. I focus on holistic patient care, where general medicine overlaps with preventive health, lifestyle modification and long term well-being. The internship also gave me confidence to work under pressure, managing routine as well as complex cases. From inserting IV lines, catheters, assisting in deliveries, handling inpatient records, or stabilizing a patient in distress – each experience taught me something about both science and responsibility. My training also shaped how I communicate. I prefer using simple words, no heavy jargon, so patients and families can actually feel safe and understand what is happening. I don’t claim to know all the answers but I always try to look deeper and give care that is both rational and empathetic. For me the goal is not just to fix a lab value or acute problem, but to help patients feel they are being seen and treated as a person. That’s what keeps me grounded in medicine and also keeps me learning everyday.

I am working in medical field for last 5 yrs, across different institutes where I got chance to deal with patients from many disciplins. That exposure really shaped the way I look at healthcare, not just as isolated disease but as a whole person with many factors going on at once. I try to mix knowledge of anatomy, physiology and day to day clinical practice to make sure treatment plan fits into patient’s life not only on paper but in reality. Over the years I handled OPD load, inpatients, some emergencies too, and in every setting I learned that listening is half of the treatment. A lot of patients come with multiple complaints, sometimes small sometimes severe, and its not only about writing medicine but guiding them with lifestyle, followups, long term planning. I prefer holistic approach – seeing how one organ system affect another, or how mental stress make physical illness worse. That way I can provide care that feels complete not fragmented. I also try to stay disciplined with documenting patient history and tracking progress, cause records matter a lot in continuity of care. But equally I pay atention to communication, explaining condition in simple words, so patients leave with clarity not confusion. My focus always stays on safety, evidence based medicine, but also empathy in every consult. I know healthcare is always changing and I push myself to adapt, keep learning, stay open to new methods. This balance of practical skills and compassion is what I want to carry forward in my career. At the end of the day, treating patient as whole body, not just symptom, is what gives best outcome in my experiance.

I am working in medicine from last 10 years, and in that time I got to see and learn from many different kind of patients and clinical situations. Some days were about routine opd cases, fevers, diabetes follow up, other days meant handling tough emergencies where every second matterd. Over this period I grew more confident in making clinical judgement, choosing right investigations, and explaining things in a way that patient and family could actually understand without too much medical jargon. My focus is always on giving treatment that is both evidence based and also practical for daily life. I try not to look at disease in isolation but at the whole body and mind together, cause often small details in lifestyle or stress pattern make a big difference in recovery. In hospital settings I managed both inpatient and outpatient care, coordinated with nursing staff, and took part in ward rounds where teamwork mattered more than individual effort. Across 10 yrs of work I also made a point to keep learning newer protocols, whether in management of hypertension, respiratory infections, or acute cardiac complaints. And yes mistakes were there too—early in career I was slower in procedures like IV cannula or suturing, but I learnt by doing, by watching seniors and then practicing until it came natural. Over time I handled more complicated cases, sometimes multiple co-morbidities in one patient, and realised that patience and listening carefully are as important as prescribing medicine. I continue to refine my approach, balancing between clinical efficiency and compassionate care. For me, the real achievement is not only in diagnosis but in seeing a patient return home safer and more reassured. Even now after a decade, I still find myself learning something new from every case, every interaction. That keeps me grounded and motivated to serve better each day.

I am working in medicine with about 1.4 year of clinical practice in general medicine and orthopedics, and more recently 1 month as consultant in critical care medicine. The transition from ward based medicine into critical care taught me a lot about speed, focus and handling situations where minutes really matter. In general medicine I dealt with common but important issues like diabetes, hypertension, infections, gastric and joint disorders, while in orthopedics I managed trauma cases, fractures, joint pain, rehab guidance. These gave me a strong base in both acute and chronic case management. Now in critical care I am facing severe emergencies, ventilator management, sepsis protocols, multi-organ failure and continuous monitoring, which sharpen both technical skills and decision making. I try to balance clinical accuracy with humane touch, explaining to families what is happening even in tense moments, cause they deserve clarity. I believe no patient is just a disease, they are people with background, family and fears, and my role is to treat them keeping all of that in mind. My interest remain broad—internal medicine, orthopedics, and critical care overlap in many ways, and I feel each part of my training complement the other. I know my journey is still early but every day I am learning, correcting, trying to make the care safer and more effective. For me, growth in medicine is continuous and shaped by each patient I meet.

I am Dr Sri Ram, a practising dentist and for me dentistry is not just a job but kind of a space where science and care come together. At our multispeciality dental clinic we try to keep everything under one roof so patients don’t have to run around different places for basic or advanced dental needs. Some days I am doing a simple filling, other days its root canal or prosthodontics or guiding someone through braces or implant options. I find that every smile has it’s own story, and part of my role is to listen before deciding treatment. I work closely with patients who come in with anxiety or fear about dental work, and I try to keep the approach as friendly and non threatening as possible. For me good dentistry is not just about restoring a tooth but about giving comfort and confidence back to the person. We maintain strict sterilisation protocols, I pay attention to detail in record keeping and planning, but I also believe in explaining procedures in plain words not medical jargons. Running a clinic also means handling schedules, keeping the team aligned, making sure materials and equipments are in order. Sometimes that part feels less exciting, but I know without it patient care will suffer. Over the years I realised preventive care and regular checkups are just as important as big procedures. Many patients delay and land up with major problems, so I encourage simple steps like cleaning, regular orthodontic checkup, and gum care. I also keep interest in cosmetic dentistry like whitening, lumineers, smile design, because a lot of people feel held back by their teeth. Helping them change that and watching them smile more often is one of the most satisfying part of this work. I continue to learn newer techniques, updating myself with modern methods so we can offer treatments that are both effective and less time consuming. At the end of the day what matters is that patients walk out more relaxed than when they came in, and that’s what I keep working towards every single day.
