Experience: | 4 years |
Education: | C.G Medical Institute Of Medical Sciences |
Academic degree: | MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery) |
Area of specialization: | I am working in the field of opthalmology and my focus is on helping people see better, not just in the sense of prescribing glasses but really understanding the health of the whole eye. I deal with conditions ranging from common refractive errors, dry eye, infections, to more complex cases like cataract, glaucoma and retinal disorders. Vision problems can affect daily life deeply and sometimes patients don’t even realize how much until treatment gives them back clarity.
My approach is usually a mix of careful diagnosis and clear explantion—I like to make sure patients know what is going on inside their eyes rather than just handing them a report. I do thorough eye exams, take proper history, use slit lamp, fundoscopy and other diagnostic tools to reach a plan that works best for each person. In emergency settings I handle trauma cases, sudden loss of vision or acute painful red eye where quick intervention really matter.
I also pay attention to preventive opthalmology—regular screenings for diabetics, hypertensives, children with squint or vision delay—because catching things early can save vision later. For surgical side, cataract surgery and minor lid procedures are areas I’m comfortable with, while also guiding patients for advanced procedures when needed.
What I try to hold on always is patience. Sometimes explaining same thing 3 times is needed, sometimes just reassuring the family is as important as the prescription. Eye care is not just clinical for me, its about giving confidence back to people who feel limited by their vision. |
Achievements: | I am proud to say that completing my MD at RP Centre was a milestone in my career, shaping both my clinical skills and my outlook on patient care. Training there exposed me to complex cases and advanced practises in eye health, where each day demanded precision but also flexibility. Working in that enviroment sharpened my diagnostic judgement and gave me a chance to handle real challenges under expert guidence. For me this achievemnt is more than a title, its a foundation I carry into every patient encounter now. |
I am a medical officer who worked for 3 years in a state govt hospital and during that time I learned more than any classroom could really teach. Every single day was different—sometimes long OPD hours where patients walked in with common fever, pain or chronic conditions that needed steady follow up, sometimes emergency nights where quick action and decision making really matter. I got to see wide spectrum of cases across medicine, pediatrics, surgery support, and that gave me a solid clinical base. I spent a lot of time in collecting medical histories properly, doing systematic clinical exams, and then planning treatment that was both effective and practical for the patient infront of me. Often patients came from rural backgrounds with limited access to care, so I learned to adjust my approach, focus on affordability, preventive advice and clear communication rather than heavy jargon. To me, patient education is as important as prescription. In the hospital setting I was also part of emergency management—resuscitations, trauma stabilization, critical care shifts—where speed and accuracy were key. Those moments were stressful but also rewarding because you know the right call at the right time can save someone’s life. Working under govt protocols meant following strict guidelines, but it also taught me discipline, teamwork and adapting even when resources felt short. My interest naturally grew towards general medicine and emergency care, since that was the core of what I handled daily. I also became more confident with procedures, documentation, and coordinating between departments. Looking back, those 3 years shaped my ability to balance evidence based medicine with real world limitations. I try to see each patient as a whole, not just a disease. Some days are messy, mistakes happen, and not every outcome is perfect, but the aim is to improve little by little. For me, medicine is about showing up, listening with patience, and doing the best possible with the knowledge and tools in hand.
