Ever
since I joined a regular school, I always fantasized becoming a doctor.
The fact that the doctors were held in very high esteem & the art of
healing sick people by those pleasantlooking tablets and multicolored dispensing
bottles always impressed me. As the years went by, the desire to become
a doctor grew more intense. Finally in December 1979 I got the much coveted
prefix of Dr. after graduating in medicine from the prestigious Maulana
Azad Medical college, University of Delhi, New Delhi, India. It was a dream
come true. During the compulsory rotatory training through the various
medical & surgical departments of the associated LNJPN & GB Pant
hospitals, New Delhi, I found that treating young children was the most
challenging.Putting a smile back on the faces of those little creatures
was the most gratifying experience. Therefore I decided to specialize in
Pediatrics & did my post graduation i.e. Doctor of Medicine in pediatrics
(MD) from the same institute in 1983 followed by Diplomate National Board
in Pediatrics in the same year. After a strenuous residency period in one
of the largest hospital in India I finally took up a faculty post as Asstt.
Professor in Pediatrics in the same institute where I was once a student.
However after a short tenure of one year I decided to set up my own pediatric
practice.
