Special Interests:
My role as a Pain Physician gives me an opportunity to help and serve patients experiencing years of chronic pain and disability. This is a very rewarding area to make a difference.
Neuropathic pain: quite distressing to patients and considered difficult to diagnose and treat.
Dr Hilton Francis, my first Australian mentor taught me “let every conversation be therapeutic”.
Many heartfelt and joyful moments where my patients felt wonderful as their pain levels improved substantially and they were able to walk again, sleep better, and play with their children.
Meditation, music and Bollywood dancing.
