About Me

What made you want to become a health care provider or what is your earliest memory of wanting to be one?

From the ripe age of 10, I used to watch my grandfather do tonsillectomies in India.  Patients got him gifts and were thankful to him.  That inspired me to become a doctor. 

What do you love most about your specialty? / Why did you choose your specialty?

Bariatric Surgery gives me great satisfaction because I add "years to life and life to years" for my patients. 

How do you connect with your patients?

I give my patients the love and respect that I give to my family members.  That is all it takes to break down barriers and connect with my patients. 

What are your interests outside of the office (hobbies, activities)?

I love photography, hiking, and cooking Indian food.  I'm a good cricketer!  I also spend time on home interior design and farming. 

What is your advice for your patients?

Good communication is the key to solving most problems.  So, open up!
