Get to Know Me
I was a timid, but curious child who wanted everything I did to be perfect. I aspired to become an engineer like my father and attended school 1,400 miles away and was homesick. To be closer to home, I applied and was accepted to a medical school in my hometown. I took the opportunity seriously and wanted to be a role model to others in my family.Why I Treat Children
Growing up in India, I was moved by the severity of malnutrition and poverty of children in India. I thought by being a pediatrician, I could serve as an advocate for these children and help change the cycle by giving families resources and avenues to help them raise healthier children.What I'm Passionate About
As a clinician, I feel completely obligated to give my patients the best treatment possible, to use strong clinical judgment. This is what moves me. At times, it’s difficult. Even though we’ve made great progress and we help many kids, there are some we can’t help. I see a challenge every time there’s a failure, and that inspires me, too.How I Try to Make A Difference
I was brought up to believe in giving back to the community. It’s what keeps me going and how I practice medicine.Education & Training
