Dr. Aditya Batra
Experience: | 4 years |
Education: | JSS Medical College Mysore |
Academic degree: | MD (Doctor of Medicine) |
Area of specialization: | I am working in pediatrics and child health, which really means I deal with almost everything that comes between birth and 18 yrs. Some days it is newborn check ups, sometimes it is following a kid with asthma, other times its about guiding parents through vaccine schedules or explaining growth charts that dont look perfect at first sight. My focus is both on preventive care and managing acute or chronic issues like infections, allergies, nutrition gaps, fevers that keep coming back etc. I try to make sure families feel they can ask any doubt no matter how small, because in children even small changes can matter big. Pediatric practice is wide, from emergency care in serious conditions to counselling parents on healthy lifestyle for their kids. For me its not just about treatment but also about long term management, making sure the child’s development, immunity, and general health stays on track. |
Achievements: | I am grateful that my work in pediatrics got recognized with a best research award, something that pushed me to keep going deeper into clinical questions that matter for kids health. Along with that I had chance to publish multiple papers in international journals, covering topics that range from common pediatric conditions to rare cases that dont get much attention. For me each publication is less about line in CV and more like sharing knowledge with wider community who might face same challenges. |
I am Dr. Aditya Batra, working as a Consultant Pediatrician in Gurugram and my focus is really about giving complete care to kids—right from tiny infants to growing adolescents who come with very diff needs. Over the yrs I realised pediatrics is not just about medicines but about careful listening, guiding parents, and staying updated with evidence based practice. My training started with MBBS at Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College and later I did my MD in Pediatrics from JSS Medical College, Mysore. Those yrs of study and the early clinical postings shaped my understanding of child health in a way textbooks alone could not. I also had the chance to work with institutions like Government Medical College, Chandigarh and MAMC, and later as faculty at Manipal Institute of Medical Sciences where I got to be part of teaching, something that keeps me grounded in academics too. In my clinical work I cover the whole spectrum of pediatrics but I have particular intrest in pediatric allergy, asthma, vaccination services, travel medicine and infectious diseases like dengue or malaria which are common but still challenging in management. Some days are routine checkups, some are long discussions on immunisation plans, and then there are those complex cases where you need every bit of knowledge and patience. Research is also important for me. I worked on rare pediatric disorders like Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) and Russell–Silver Syndrome. These cases dont come often but documenting them means future doctors and patients benefit. Publishing those findings in journals felt less about prestige and more about contributing to the wider pediatric community. One recognition that stays close to me was receiving a research grant on breastfeeding promotion. Preventive pediatrics is something i believe in strongly, and initiatives like that remind me that medicine isn’t always about curing, sometimes it’s about preventing illness before it starts. At the end, my goal stays same: offer safe, high quality care for children while also supporting families through the questions and worries they carry.
