Doctor information
Experience:
4 years
Education:
Caucasus's International University
Academic degree:
MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery)
Area of specialization:
I am a general physician and my work is to deal with a wide mix of health issues, both small day to day problems and also more serious conditions that need careful follow up. On any given day I may see fevers, coughs, stomach pain, blood pressure checks, diabetic patients, chest infections, or sometimes emergencies that suddenly turn critical. The role keep me on my toes cause no two patients are same even if they carry same diagnosis. One person’s “headache” may be stress, another could be migraine or something bigger hiding underneath. I like to focus on clear diagnosis first, then plan simple treatment that patients can actually follow. Not everyone can afford lot of tests or fancy meds, and being practical is important for real life healthcare. Preventive care also play a role in what I do — counseling on diet, lifestyle, regular health checks, cause waiting until disease is advance only makes things harder later. Some days are tough with long hours and uncertainty, other days patients leave relieved and grateful, and that makes the effort worth it. For me being a general physician is not just about writing prescriptions but about listening carefully, picking up small details, and guiding people step by step toward better health.
Achievements:
I am an MBBS graduate and for me that itself stand as a solid achievement, cause the journey through medical school was long and full of challenges. Clearing each stage — anatomy, physiology, endless clinics, exams that felt never ending — shaped me into a doctor who can now stand in front of patients with confidence. The degree gave me strong base in medicine, from understanding acute illness to managing chronic conditions, and also taught me value of patience, discipline and continous learning.

I am working with about 3.5 years of experience, part of it as a resident in oncology and also as a general physician, and honestly those two roles shaped me in very different but connected ways. Oncology demanded patience like nothing else. You sit with patients who are going through long painful treatments, chemo cycles, endless scans, and sometimes the hardest part isn’t the medicine but giving them strength to keep going. I learnt that in cancer care even small improvements matter, and every conversation has weight. You don’t just treat the disease, you are dealing with fear, uncertainty, family stress all at once. As a general physician I dealt with a much broader canvas — fevers, infections, blood pressure, diabetes, gastric issues, sudden chest pain, all the routine and not so routine problems that walk into OPD. That work kept me grounded, cause it taught me to think wide and not miss simple clues hidden in everyday symptoms. Some cases looked like just viral fever but turn into something bigger, while others were complicated on paper but only needed reassurance and steady follow up. Balancing oncology with general medicine gave me this sense of perspective. In oncology I had to look at long term management, slow progress. As a physician it was often about fast decision, stabilizing a patient, getting them better in days not months. Together they taught me to be flexible — sometimes you sprint, sometimes you walk slow with the patient. I try to keep my approach simple and clear, explaining things without too much jargon. Patients deserve to understand what’s happening to them, not leave more confused. Some days are draining, no doubt, but there are also moments when you see someone improve and that’s enough to recharge. 3.5 years may not sound like much compared to senior doctors, but every day in those years added lessons that stay with me and still shape how I practice today.
