Dr. Shrut Kirti
Experience: | 2 years |
Education: | Government Medical College Amritsar |
Academic degree: | MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery) |
Area of specialization: | I am done with general medicine and for me that means working across a really wide range of health problems, not just one narrow specialty. General medicine keeps you on your toes—you see diabetes one moment, chest infection next, then maybe a hypertensive crisis, or some patient with vague fever that just doesn’t add up. It’s kinda like being the first stop for almost everything.
I focus a lot on diagnosis and management, making sure treatment plans are based on proper clinical examination, labs, imaging when needed. But also making it clear to the patient why we are doing what we do. Some people just want quick fixes but I try to explain long-term management—like lifestyle changes for blood pressure or sugar. Not always easy, but important.
Emergency care is part of it too, stabilizing patients, prescribing right meds, handling acute cases till they’re safe. It’s stressful at times. But those are the moments where training actually shows.
I also think general medicine is about connection. You aren’t just treating a lab report, you’re dealing with a person who’s worried, sometimes confused. Communication, empathy, and being honest about prognosis—these matter as much as prescribing the correct dose.
I know I’m still learning every day—medical science doesn’t stand still—and general medicine keeps me humble that way. It demands both breadth and depth, and I try to bring both whenever I step into patient care. |
Achievements: | I am done with my MBBS degree and that kinda shaped everything about how I look at patient care. During that time I also trained in Basic Life Support and ACLS, which honestly feels like skills every doctor should keep sharp, cause emergencies don’t really wait for anyone. Knowing how to step in—whether it’s chest compressions, airway management, drug protocols—gives you confidence in critical moments. These achievements may look simple on paper but they are what keep patients alive when seconds really matter. |
I am a doctor who really values both the science and the human side of medicine. My work is rooted in patient care—diagnosis, treatment planning, follow ups—and honestly I try to approach each case with a mix of detail and empathy. Outpatient cases are usually where you see long-term progress, inpatient ones more complex, more urgent, but both demand the same attention. Sometimes you’re balancing medical facts with what the patient actually feels or fears... and that balance is tricky but important. I’m used to managing emergencies too—stabilizing, examining, prescribing, assisting in procedures when needed. Not every case is straightforward, and sometimes you gotta make decisions fast even when all the data isn’t in front of you. Those moments remind me why clinical judgement matters. Evidence-based practice is my anchor, but you also learn that guidelines can’t cover every real-world detail. Communication plays a huge role in all this. Whether it’s explaining medications to a patient’s family or working with colleagues in a team setting, clarity matters. I try not to hide behind jargon—it doesn’t help anyone. And counseling isn’t just about giving info, sometimes it’s about just listening properly before you say anything at all. I’m committed to continuous learning—medicine never stays still. New protocols, new drugs, updated research, you gotta keep pace if you wanna serve patients well. For me, growth isn’t just a checkbox—it’s part of being safe and responsible as a clinician. At the end of the day, I want my patients to feel they were heard, treated with respect, and cared for with precision. That’s the standard I keep myself to, even if the day is long, or cases get complicated. Mistakes happen in thought, sometimes I worry about overthinking, but that also keeps me careful. Quality care is what I aim for, and every single patient encounter is a chance to do that a little better.
