After completing IM Residency in India and the United Kingdom, I joined Lincoln Hospital as a Resident and was then recruited as a Hospitalist. For reasons, which I am yet confounded by, I was selected to be the Associate Chair of Medicine and Chief Hospitalist. The sheer joy of being challenged every day by your patients, colleagues and the evolving healthcare system has helped my journey to become a little wiser and compassionate. My evolving interests are Quality Improvement, Plant-Based Nutrition, and Mindfulness. I also dabble in Data Sciences and Artificial Intelligence and its application in Healthcare. Above all, I have infinite gratitude for the Dept. of Medicine and Lincoln Hospital for facilitating our growth, personally and professionally, and always being there with a helping hand. Adjunct Faculty at AIIMS (All India Institute of Medicine), and advice, teach and curate a new Hospitalist/Intensivist Fellowship Program.
