Academic degree: | MD (Doctor of Medicine) |
Area of specialization: | I am a physician working across a wide range of health conditions, from diabetes and thyroid disorders to cardiac problems, obesity, and other hormonal issue that often get overlooked till they start affecting daily life. Many of my patients come with chest or abdomen complaints too, and sometimes what looks simple on surface hides a deeper metabolic or lifestyle cause. That’s why I try not to see these problems in isolation—body, mind and soul are linked more than we like to admit.
My work often involves balancing sugar control in diabetics, stabilising thyroid levels, managing high blood pressure or cholesterol, and guiding patients with weight management. Each of these needs different kind of care, but also some overlap—like stress, diet, lack of activity, which connect all of them. I also deal with respiratory and abdominal complaints, where quick diagnosis is important but so is patient reassurance.
I try to keep my approach holistic without losing scientific clarity. Yes medications matter, but lifestyle, mindset, even sleep quality plays a role in healing. My goal is not just to “fix a symptom” but to help people understand their body better, so that long-term health feels possible, not just another prescription refill. |
Achievements: | I am grateful that my work in patient care got recognised with the **Best Emerging Diabetologist in Bihar** award. That moment felt like proof that all those long hours of managing sugar levels, counselling patients on lifestyle, and staying updated with treatment really mattered. Later, receiving the **Chikitsa Ratna Award** was another big milestone for me—it reminded me that medicine is not only about clinical outcomes but also about dedication towards community health and responsibility as a doctor. |
I am a CardioDiabetologist & Physician, and most of my work revolves around patients who are dealing with both heart disease and diabetes, sometimes at the same time which makes things complicated real quick. Over the years I realised these two conditions are deeply connected—poor sugar control affecting the heart, hypertension pushing the risk even higher—so treating one without keeping the other in mind doesn’t really work. That’s what pulled me more into this combined field. Day to day, I see people with uncontrolled diabetes, chest pain, metabolic syndrome, high BP, post-cardiac event patients… each case with its own layers. Some need strict medication adjustment, some need lifestyle correction, and some need just the right words to actually take treatment seriously. I don’t just hand over prescriptions, I spend time explaining risks in plain words—like why ignoring sugar today might mean a blocked artery tomorrow. My focus is on preventive care as much as active treatment. Screening, early diagnosis, regular follow-ups, all matter. Many patients only show up when symptoms turn severe, but I keep stressing that prevention is easier than crisis management. I also manage emergencies—acute chest discomfort, hypoglycemia, sudden spikes in BP—but long-term health planning is where I feel most impact. As a physician, I deal with general medical problems too—fevers, infections, gastric issues, respiratory complaints—but my core remains diabetes and cardiology overlap. It’s not always easy, because these patients need lifelong care, not a one-time fix. Sometimes they get frustrated, sometimes I do too, but I try to keep them motivated coz consistency is what really saves lives here. At the end of the day, my approach is simple—evidence-based treatment, clear communication, and patient-centered care. Whether I’m adjusting insulin, planning cardiac medications, or just encouraging a healthier lifestyle, I keep the bigger picture in mind: helping people live longer, healthier and without constant fear of the next complication.
