Dr. Dhanush J
Experience: | 2 years |
Education: | Rajeev gandhi University of Health and Science |
Academic degree: | MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery) |
Area of specialization: | I am trained with a fellowship in diabetes and most of my work is around helping patients manage this complex and life long condition. I focus on prevention, early diagnosis and creating treatment plans that match each persons lifestyle because diabetes care is never one-size-fits-all. My work include managing type 1 and type 2 diabetes, gestational diabetes, and dealing with complications like neuropathy or kidney issues that come with uncontrolled sugar levels. I also put effort on lifestyle counseling, guiding patients in diet, exercise, stress and daily habits, since these small things make a big differnce in long term outcome.
I like spending time explaining things clearly, sometimes more than once, cause patients and families deserve to fully understand what is happening in thier body. For me control of blood sugar is not just about prescribing tablets or insulin, its about motivating patients to follow through, being there for thier doubts, and celebrating even small improvements. I also work on screening high-risk individuals and helping them delay or prevent onset of diabetes through education and monitoring.
My goal is to give care that is evidence based, ethical and practical, combining medical treatment with personal support, so patients can live healthier and more confident lives despite the challanges of diabetes. |
Achievements: | I am proud to have completed my Jeevan Raksha ECLS course which gave me deeper skills in handling emergency and critical care cases. I also worked as CMO at Jyotsna hospital where I was responsible for coordinating patient care and managing acute medical situations on daily basis. My medical degree from BR Ambedkar Medical College built the foundation for this journey, giving me both knowledge and confidence to serve patients with responsibility and compassion in every setting. |
I am working since 2 yrs with a mobile medical unit, and honestly that experience shaped me more than anything in textbooks. We travelled across rural belts, slums, places where access to even basic health care was missing, and provided free consultation and treatment for the poor and depressed class. In those settings you dont just treat fevers or wounds, you learn how to listen, how to explain in simple words, how to build trust when people are scared of hospitals. I handled wide range of general medical cases—seasonal infections, malnutrition, hypertension, diabetes screening, antenatal checkups, even small emergencies where quick action mattered. Many days were long and rough, but the direct contact with patients taught me patience and empathy in ways no training module can explain. I focused a lot on preventive medicine too, doing health awareness camps on hygiene, vaccination, nutrition. Sometimes the job was not only giving medicines but also counseling families, guiding them on lifestyle changes, and making sure they felt cared for not just treated. I also got used to working with limited resources, which means learning improvisation, prioritizing patients, and being responsible for crucial decision-making in the field. That 2 year journey gave me strong clinical confidence, improved my diagnostic skills in challenging conditions, and helped me understand community health at ground level. I continue to carry those lessons in my practice today—keeping patient dignity first, respecting their struggles, and ensuring ethical and evidence based care no matter the circumstance.
