Dr. Rinta M Babu
Experience: | 6 years |
Education: | P.K. DAS Institue Of Medical Sciences |
Academic degree: | MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery) |
Area of specialization: | I am practicing as a general physician with a strong interest in infectious diseases, and most of my work is about managing a wide spectrum of cases that walk into opd or wards. On one side I treat routine illnesses like fevers, flu, gastrointestinal infections, respiratory tract infections, and on the other I also manage more complex cases like sepsis, dengue, malaria or TB where quick judgement and careful monitoring matters a lot. Over time I learnt that infectious disease care is not just about writing an antibiotic but knowing when not to give it, choosing right drug, right duration and making sure patient follows through. In my practice I also focus on preventive aspects—vaccination guidance, counselling on hygiene, safe practices, explaining how infections spread in simple terms families can understand. I try to keep my consults open and clear, encouraging patients to ask doubts, because trust is important especially when dealing with conditions that often cause anxiety. For me general practice is about balance, managing acute conditions, chronic issues and preventive health, all while staying updated with evolving guidelines in infection control and internal medicine. |
Achievements: | I am certified in both BLS and ACLS, which mean I can handle emergency situations from basic life support to advanced cardiac care. During training I learnt not just the protocols but also the importance of staying calm when every second counts. These certifications gave me confidence in dealing with cardiac arrest, airway management, use of defibrillator, and team coordination in resuscitation scenarios. It might look technical on paper, but for me its really about saving life when it matters most. |
I am working in clinical medicine for 5 yrs now and in that time I got to see how wide and complex patient care can be. Some days I sit in OPD guiding people through long standing problems like hypertension, diabetes or thyroid issues, other days I am at bedside managing sudden emergencies that demand quick action and clear thinking. That mix of routine and critical work is what shaped me most as a doctor. In wards I manage both acute cases and chronic follow ups, which means dealing with infections, respiratory illness, cardiovascular conditions, renal disorders and a whole range of general medicine problems. Many times its about balancing immediate stabilization with planning long term care that families can realistically follow. I also pay a lot of attention to preventive care, because small changes in lifestyle, diet, and medication compliance can make huge difference to outcomes. Working in hospitals gave me plenty of chances to coordinate with specialists too—cardiologists, neurologists, nephrologists—because medicine today is never a one person job. I find that teamwork and proper communication across departments makes patient journey smoother. At the same time I try to explain diagnosis and treatment plans in simple terms, so patients dont feel lost in medical jargon. Over these 5 yrs I learnt that medicine is not just prescribing tablets or writing reports, it is about listening carefully, sometimes rethinking decisions, and being ready to adapt when things dont go as planned. It taught me patience and humility along with clinical judgement. I still keep updating my knowledge, reading new guidelines, attending discussions, because this field keeps moving and patients deserve the most current evidence based care. Every consultation, whether it is a small opd case or a critically ill admission, I try to see it as an opportunity to combine science with empathy. That balance is not always perfect, but it is what keeps me grounded and makes me continue in clinical practise with dedication.
