Doctor information
Experience:
7 years
Education:
MD Paediatrics
Academic degree:
Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery
Area of specialization:
I am a paediatric specialist (Kaumarbhritya) and my work kinda covers everything from newborn care to those tricky teenage health concerns. I try to keep my approach balanced – mixing Ayurvedic principles with updated paediatric practices – because honestly both have their strengths and I like seeing how they fit together in real life cases. My day-to-day can be anything from setting up immunization schedules, checking growth charts, handling routine coughs to those scary moments in emergencies where we need to act quick. During training I did hands-on stuff too – lumbar punctures, intubations, umbilical cathaterization, exchange transfusions – always under senior guidance but enough to learn the fine points. I do spend time on nutrition counseling, sometimes it’s as much for the parents as for the child, and I focus a lot on developmental assesments so we catch any concerns early. At the heart of it, I just want to give care that’s compassionate, tailored, and makes families feel supported at every step.
Achievements:
I am kinda proud to say I secured 1st rank in my final year MD (Paediatrics – Kaumarbhritya) exams, it was tough but also felt worth all the late nights & endless revisions. It really helped me build a strong clinical base and confidence in my work. And yeah, outside of academics, I actually got 1st place in my college dance compitition too – totally different skillset but I guess it shows I like balance between serious medical stuff and creative expression!!

I am a post-grad in Paediatrics (Kaumarbhritya) from Govt Ayurvedic College & Hospital, Nanded, and during my residency I got pretty hands-on with all kinds of child care — OPDs, IPDs, and even NICU work. I handled kids from newborns to older children with different issues, from routine fevers to those scary emergencies where every second matter. Over time I learnt not just the diagnosis and treatment part but also the softer bits, like guiding parents who are stressed or confused about what’s happening. My training had a lot of real, on-the-ground work – growth & development checks, making customised immunization schedules, giving nutrition advice that parents can actually follow at home. And there were the intense procedures too… lumbar punctures, intubations, umbilical catheterization, exchange transfusions – all done under senior supervision, which honestly built up my confidence step by step. I also took part in academics – journal reviews, case presentations, group discussions – which made me think sharper and explain things better. That’s something I carry into practice now, whether I’m explaining a condition to parents or deciding the next step in a tricky case. My style of care blends Ayurvedic principles with modern paediatrics, not in a vague way but in an actual, workable manner – meaning I can look at root causes and still use updated diagnostic tools. At the end of the day, my aim is simple: give children care that’s both safe and effective, and help families feel like they’re part of the process, not just on the receiving end of instructions. I want to support kids at every stage – physically, mentally, emotionally – because all of it matters.
