My story and My passion
I graduated from All India Institute of Medical Sciences in New Delhi, the most prestigious medical school in India in 1999. I moved to Australia in 2007. I have practiced medicine for more than 20 years.
During my practice, I started to realize the limitations of modern medicine. I witnessed some patients gradually worsen and be on more medications even though they followed the prescribed treatment. For other patients with certain diseases, there was no treatment option available. I also noted some anomalies in the presentations e.g getting heart disease despite having low cholesterol - commonly blamed on genes. I wondered how to treat these patients. I always knew that the body has the power to heal itself if given suitable environment (that's how body heals after surgery), why then were patients continuing to worsen. Was there a missing link that I had overlooked?
I started my functional journey in 2017 to learn beyond what standard medical science offers. Since then, I have been successfully able to treat and help patients heal their chronic diseases like Diabetes, Heart disease, Obesity, Anxiety/Depression, Crohn's disease, Ulcerative colitis, Allergies, Cancer, etc by introducing environmental and functional medicine.
Today, I know the body will heal if given suitable environment. I therefore try to ascertain factors that may be keeping the body from healing itself. I spend time with patients, listen to their history, map their personal timeline and look for clues in their life journey that can explain current presentation.
I am connected to nature and animals. I have 2 pet dogs, a maltese poodle and a french bulldog. I love tracking and reading books. I practice meditation as my daily routine. I have two kids and I love cooking for them - often preparing new recipes.
I am always curious to learn and find more about the healing magic of the body.
