I am a surgeon by training and I completed my masters of surgery in general surgery, but along the way I also gained experience working in different specialties. That exposure made me realise surgery is not only about operating, it is about understanding the whole patient first, knowing the background issues before stepping into the OT. During training I rotated through many departments, each one teaching me something different – handling trauma cases, assisting in abdominal procedures, managing post operative care where small details like fluid balance matter a lot. General surgery became my main field because it offers such a wide scope. I deal with conditions ranging from appendicitis to hernia repairs, from wound management to gastrointestinal problems that sometimes require urgent intervention. I learned that even what looks like a “simple case” can turn unpredictable inside the theatre, and that is where patience and preparation count more than anything. I also spent time observing and assisting in areas beyond core general surgery, which gave me confidence when I face complex scenarios today. Working in emergency situations taught me to stay calm when everything feels rushed. Interacting with senior doctors at superspeciality levels exposed me to refined techniques, but also reminded me that no matter how advanced the method, the patient’s safety comes first. Now as a practicing surgeon I try to keep my care practical and approachable. I explain procedures in simple terms, even repeat things if needed, because I know patients and families often carry fear before surgery. I also focus on post operative recovery, encouraging early movement, diet adjustments, and close follow ups. My approach is not about rushing, rather about steady, safe progress. Looking back, what keeps me motivated is the balance between skill and responsibility. Surgery is demanding, long hours, sometimes exhausting, but the satisfaction when a patient recovers well makes it meaningful. I continue to grow everyday, with each case teaching me something new that no textbook could fully cover.

I’m a periodontist and academician with a strong clinical and teaching background. Over the last 4 years and 8 months, I’ve been actively involved in dental education, guiding students at multiple levels including dental hygienist, BDS, and MDS programs. Currently, I serve as a Reader at MMCDSR in Ambala, Haryana—a role that allows me to merge my academic passion with hands-on experience. Clinically, I’ve been practicing dentistry for the past 12 years. From routine procedures like scaling and root planing to more advanced cases involving grafts, biopsies, and implant surgeries. Honestly, I still find joy in doing a simple RCT when it’s needed. It’s not just about the procedure but making sure the patient feels comfortable and safe. Academically, I have 26 research publications to my credit. I’m on the editorial boards of the Archives of Dental Research and Journal of Dental Research and Oral Health, and I’ve spent a lot of time reviewing manuscripts—from case reports to meta-analyses and even book reviews. I was honored to receive the “Best Editor” award by Innovative Publications, and Athena Publications recognized me as an “excellent reviewer,” which honestly came as a bit of a surprise! In 2025, I had the opportunity to present a guest lecture in Italy on traumatic oral lesions. Sharing my work and learning from peers globally has been incredibly fulfilling. Outside academics and clinics, I’ve also worked in the pharmaceutical sector as a Drug Safety Associate for about 3 years, focusing on pharmacovigilance. That role really sharpened my attention to detail and deepened my understanding of drug interactions and adverse effects. My goal is to keep learning, and give every patient and student my absolute best.

I am a gynecologist currently freelancing in Goregaon and Malad, which honestly gives me the space to connect one-on-one with patients without the hospital rush — though I still kinda miss that too sometimes. My medical journey started with MBBS at GMC Aurangabad, which laid the foundation for everything that followed. After that I went on to do my DGO from Seth G S Medical College & KEM Hospital in Parel, Mumbai. That place was intense, I mean the kind of exposure we got there — high-volume OPDs, difficult deliveries, emergency cases — it really shaped how I approach situations now. I also did a 6-month stint as an SMO at Kamala Nehru Hospital in Pune, right in Mangalwar Peth. Wasn't long, but it gave me a lotta practical, ground-level feel of public sector gynec care. Then I joined Lilavati Hospital & Research Centre in Bandra to pursue Secondary DNB in OBGY — that phase was academically heavy, but also opened me up to high-end procedures and multi-disciplinary teamwork. Right after that, I worked as SMO at ESIS Kandivali for 9 months. It was one of those postings where you’re juggling between antenatal patients and OT prep and last-minute emergencies — not glam but very real. Later I came back to Lilavati, this time as a Clinical Associate. Did a full year there. The environment was more structured, but honestly it was the team and seniors who really pushed me to keep learning — laparoscopy, high-risk pregnancy protocols, patient counselling, all of it. Every stage taught me something diff, like, small details I never noticed before. Right now I'm freelancing, meeting patients across Goregaon and Malad. It’s quieter but more personal, I get to follow-up better, and some patients become kinda like family over time. I mostly handle antenatal care, PCOS cases, menstrual problems, fertility counselling and general gynec OPD stuff. It’s not just about giving meds — sometimes they just need time, to talk, to feel heard. I mean, yeah the titles and degrees matter, sure, but what really stayed with me is how much we can change with just a careful ear and the right words... maybe a little patience too.

Vaginal itching and a white discharge with a cheesy appearance often suggest a yeast infection, medically known as candidiasis. This is a common condition typically caused by an overgrowth of the fungus Candida. First, it’s important to confirm this diagnosis with a healthcare professional, as other conditions might mimic these symptoms. If it’s indeed a yeast infection, antifungal treatments—available over-the-counter or as prescriptions—are the mainstay. Options like miconazole or clotrimazole are widely used. These come in various forms like creams, suppositories, or tablets and are applied intravaginally for a number of days, typically between 3 to 7, depending on the product. If you choose an over-the-counter treatment, follow the package instructions carefully. Consistent applications are key for effectiveness. If symptoms persist despite treatment, this could indicate a more resistant form of infection or another underlying condition requiring a different treatment approach. In this case—or if you’re facing recurrent infections—it’s essential to see a healthcare provider for further evaluation. Things like diabetes, hormonal changes, or a weakened immune system could be contributory factor. Avoiding irritants in the genital area—such as scented soaps, douches, or tight-fitting clothing—can also help prevent future infections. Maintaining good genital hygiene, wearing breathable cotton underwear, and keeping the area dry are practical preventive measures. However, if there’s any pain, fever, or if the discharge has an unpleasant odor, it’s crucial to seek medical attention promptly as these signs may indicate a different or more serious condition. And while home remedies like yogurt or probiotics are sometimes suggested, these should be used cautiously and preferably after consulting your doctor. Also, lifestyle factors like diet and stress can play a role in the recurrence of yeast infections, so a balanced diet and stress management may indirectly help in prevention. If you’re taking antibiotics, which can disrupt natural vaginal flora, discussing preventive antifungal treatment with your doctor might be beneficial. It’s important to address this condition comprehensively to avoid future issues.
