Area of specialization: | I am a urologist with a focused interest in andrology and men’s sexual health, which honestly gets ignored more than it should. I deal with all kinds of urological problems—urinary issues, prostate troubles, infections, stone disease—but also stuff that’s harder to talk about like erectile dysfunction, low libido, premature ejaculation, or fertility concerns. Most guys wait too long, or just feel weird bringing it up... and by the time they do, it’s affecting more than just their health.
In andrology, every case feels a bit layered. It’s not just about test results or hormone levels—there’s stress, lifestyle, sleep, relationships, a whole bunch of things that can mess with men’s health in ways they don’t always realise. I try not to rush it. First thing I do is listen, like *really* listen, cause people don’t always say everything straight out.
Treatment plans? I keep them practical. Medicines, hormone therapy if needed, lifestyle corrections, sometimes just explaining what’s going on already helps a lot. I prefer evidence-based methods, but also believe no two patients walk in with the exact same issue—even if they say the same thing. And trust is a big part of it.. once that’s there, everything moves smoother. |
Achievements: | I am a full member of the Urological Society of India, also part of Karnataka Urological Association and the Association of Southern Urologists. These aren’t just for namesake—being part of these groups kinda keeps me connected to what’s actually happening in real-time across urology. New protocols, updated techniques, sometimes even hearing what didn’t work for others. It's not just about meetings or events.. it’s more like staying in the room with people who get what we deal with everyday. |
I am a urologist with hands-on, day-to-day experience dealing with everything from routine urinary problems to the more serious stuff like cancers. Stone disease is probably what I see most—kidney stones, ureteric ones, bladder too—some small and quick to manage, others stuck for weeks and causing havoc. People think all stones are same but they behave real differently. And that pain? Trust me, even if two patients say “sharp pain,” it’s never *exactly* the same. UTIs are another regular—sounds simple, but they can get sneaky. Some clear up easy, others keep coming back or start messing with the kidneys. Especially in older patients or women with recurring infections, I try to look beyond just the culture reports. I like to understand what’s setting them off... hygiene, habits, sugar control, hormone changes. There’s usually more going on than just bacteria. I also handle urological cancers—mostly kidney and bladder. These cases stay with you longer, not just cause they’re clinically serious, but also cause you can see how hard they hit the patient and family. The delay in diagnosis hurts. So many ppl ignore blood in urine or minor changes, waiting till it gets worse. I don’t like that part, honestly. I keep reminding folks—those little signs aren't always nothing. Surgery is a big part of my work, sure. But I don’t jump into it right off. Not every case needs a knife. Sometimes medications are enough, other times we do minimally invasive stuff. I believe in giving people time to understand, ask, worry a bit even—that’s normal. I don’t rush those talks. If you don’t feel confident about what’s about to happen to your body, then we pause. From sudden testicular pain in young boys to prostate enlargement in older men, I've seen how these conditions affect not just health but daily life too—sleep, confidence, relationships. My job isn’t just to fix numbers on reports—it’s to get ppl back to their normal, whatever that looks like. And that means listening better, staying updated, and always paying atention to the small things others might miss.
