Experience: | 10 years |
Education: | Rajiv Gandhi University Of Health Sciences |
Academic degree: | MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery) |
Area of specialization: | I am mostly into ENT & Head–Neck stuff — kind of living between blocked noses, buzzing ears, hoarseness, neck swellings, and yeah sometimes things that really need to be caught early. I deal with ear infections, sinus problems, throat issues, voice changes, deviated septums, allergic rhinitis, and the occasional deep neck space infection that shows up at the wrong time. I do both OPD and OR work—meaning one day it’s ear wax, next day I’m deep in a tympanoplasty or maybe assisting on a neck dissection.
My focus is kind of split. Like I like the fine-tuned procedures—septoplasty, adenoidectomy, that kind of rhythm. But I also keep learning my way into the heavier side, like head and neck tumors, airway management, or long cases that push your stamina more than your hands. ENT is broad. You think it’s just ears and throats till you're managing vertigo or pulling a button battery from a kid's nose. Every case keeps you on your toes. I don’t really get bored here, and I guess that’s why I’ve stuck around this long. |
Achievements: | I am someone who’s tried to keep some part of my work academic too, not just clinical. I’ve presented papers at a few national-level ENT conferences—nothing flashy maybe, but def took a lot of effort n sleep-deprived nights trying to get the data right and the ppt to not crash at the last min. Topics were mostly tied to head & neck cases I’d seen firsthand. I kinda like that mix of day-to-day surgery + a bit of research that keeps u thinking in the background too. |
I am someone who's spent the last 5+ years living ENT full-time—like literally ear nose throat head neck all day every day. I started off just wanting to get the basics right, like outpatient consults, follow-ups, managing common stuff, you know—ear infections, sinus things, sore throats, that kind of cycle. But the deeper I went, the more I ended up doing. I now handle a full range of ENT cases both medical and surgical, including emergencies. I’ve worked across clinics, wards, OTs and ERs, and each setting taught me something new. I’ve done tonsillectomies, adenoidectomies, septoplasties, tympanoplasties independently (like really on my own start to end), and assisted on the more advanced stuff—mastoidectomy, FESS, and even head & neck cancer surgeries where you just have to stay sharp every second or you're out of sync with the team. Emergencies? Yeah, lots—epistaxis where you don’t know when the bleed’ll stop, kids with airway blocks, foreign bodies in places they’re not supposed to be... those test your nerves but also build instincts. What these years honestly gave me is a way better sense of judgment—like when to wait, when to act, and how to explain to someone’s family why you’re doing what you're doing. The OR helped me get better with my hands, obviously, but I think ENT is also about patience... and being okay with not rushing. Not every deviated septum needs surgery right away. Not every ear pain is an infection. You learn to pause, reassess, listen again—literally and figuratively. And yeah, I still study. Still ask seniors. Still open the book when a case feels off. ENT is broad and weirdly specific at the same time, and I kinda like that. My goal now is to keep refining what I know—keep sharpening those decision edges while staying honest with what I still need to learn. ENT has turned out to be a lot more than what I thought when I started, and weirdly, I’m okay with that mess.
