About me
I initially obtained a post graduate diploma in chest medicine to become a respiratory physician in 1997, after my MBBS from Medical College in New Delhi, India. I subsequently developed an interest in anaesthetics and pain management and completed a postgraduate training program in the specialty after which I came over to the UK for further training. In the UK I obtained an advanced training in pain management at various distinguished centres of excellence including Guy’s and St Thomas’ Hospital, King’s College Hospital, St George’s Hospital, and Brighton and Sussex university hospitals. This was followed by completion of a research fellowship program in spinal cord stimulation implants (neuromodulation) and pain management at Guy’s and St Thomas’ Hospital.
I then took up the responsibilities as a consultant in pain management at Charing Cross Hospital, London, a renowned centre for neurosurgery with an excellent academic record, and part of the prestigious Imperial College Hospital NHS Trust and later moved over to East Surrey Hospital Redhill for a better work life balance.
