Welcome to my home page!

I hail from a famous southern Indian city, Bangalore, which is well known for the best IT and medical facilities. I did all my education in this great city which also includes my medical graduation. I continued my education in New York and did residency in Internal Medicine at SUNY Downstate Medical Center.

I chose medicine as my profession as it provides me an opportunity to guide and help people in their health aspects and overall well-being. I believe in providing high quality evidence-based health care to my patients and I am glad I am able to do it at Kaiser Permanente. I have great empathy for my patients and I will help my patients in understanding their health issues. Also, I try to help my patients in adapting a healthy life style.

I joined Kaiser permanente in 2004 and it has given me the path to achieve my goals. I greatly believe in health education, which is the key to a successful life. I wish all my patients a healthy and prosperous life.

I spend my leisure time playing with my daughter, reading books and cooking.

If you think you have a MEDICAL OR PSYCHIATRIC EMERGENCY, CALL 911 IMMEDIATELY or go to the nearest hospital. DO NOT attempt to access emergency care through this web site. An emergency medical condition is a medical or psychiatric condition that manifests itself by acute symptoms of sufficient severity (including severe pain) such that you could reasonably expect the absence of immediate medical attention to result in any of the following: serious jeopardy to your health, serious impairment to your bodily functions, or serious dysfunction of any bodily organ or part. An emergency medical condition is also "active labor," which means a labor when there is inadequate time for safe transfer to a Plan hospital (or designated hospital) before delivery or if a transfer poses a threat to the health of the member or unborn child.
