Experience: | 3 years |
Education: | Eastern Medical College & Hospital Bangladesh |
Academic degree: | MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery) |
Area of specialization: | I am mostly into general medicine stuff but yeah—there’s a lot under that. I work a lot with diabetes & hypertension cases, like managing those long-term, tweaking meds, watching trends, checking if lifestyle changes are even sticking. It’s not just about writing down doses, ya kno? You gotta dig into why sugars go haywire or why BP spikes even when meds are on. Respiratory issues too—coughs, wheezing, that constant chest tightness people ignore till it gets bad... I end up seeing that a lot.
Gastro complaints? Yup, those come in waves. Acidity, bloating, IBS-ish things, infections—they all show up at once sometimes lol. And infectious diseases—dengue, typhoid, flu, weird rashes—I've had to handle those daily at one point. Sometimes diagnosing them is just pattern + gut feel + tests all rolled into one fast decision.
But what pulls me most is preventive care. Like trying to catch stuff before it turns major. Diets, sleep, habits, stress patterns—it all affects how someone heals or falls sick again. I try to walk patients through all that, not jus the prescription part. |
Achievements: | I am kinda proud of a few things, even tho I don’t usually talk about them much. Got honors in Microbiology during my 3rd prof exam at University of Chittagong — that felt like a win 'cause micro wasn’t easy at all, and the way concepts just clicked for me back then... it still kinda guides how I handle infections now. Also hosted this health awareness webinar called “Understanding Diabetes – What Every Indian Must Know”. Tried to make it less textbooky and more real-life.. think it worked!! |
I am a general practitioner who’s been mostly busy juggling between OPD consults, ward rounds n emergency room chaos — all in the same day sometimes. My clinical experience kind of moves across the board, from handling routine colds or diabetes followups to stabilising patients in real-time emergencies. I kinda like that balance honestly. Some days it's all about reading ECGs and tweaking BP meds, other days I’m in deep convos about stress, diet, sleep, or whatever’s quietly affecting their health but no one's asking about it. I’ve worked with all kinds of patients — young, old, not-so-sick to really critical. That mix keeps me grounded. Preventive care is one area I try to focus hard on. I mean, treating a condition once it's full-blown is one thing, but if I can spot stuff early — cholesterol creeping up, bad sugar spikes, mental health red flags — and just... intervene before it escalates, then that really feels like progress to me. Patient education’s another big part of my consults. I don’t rush explanations, even if someone’s heard it before — I’d rather repeat myself than let someone walk out confused bout their meds or lifestyle changes. Sometimes people think GPs just prescribe basic stuff and refer everything else, but nah — we’re usually the first to catch signs of something deeper. That kinda front-line insight, you earn it after sitting with enough patients, watching patterns build. It’s more about listening than jumping to fix. I guess that's what makes general practice kinda quiet but important too. I’m not perfect with every protocol or guideline, no doc really is tbh, but I do pay attention. To symptoms, to silence between symptoms too. And yeah, I still keep learning—there’s always some update or shift in practice to catch up with. But that’s the job, right? You stay close to people and their stories, even if it’s just 15 mins at a time.
