My journey in ENT and Head & Neck Surgery began with pursuing my M.S in ENT from Stanley Medical College, where I built a strong foundation in the diagnosis and surgical management of ear, nose, throat, head and neck conditions. Over the years, I have worked in tertiary care hospitals managing a wide range of ENT conditions from common ear, nose, and throat problems to complex surgical cases. My experience includes advanced airway management, sinus disorders, voice disorders, thyroid and salivary gland conditions, as well as head & neck surgeries, making me a trusted ENT specialist in Whitefield for comprehensive ENT care.

I also underwent specialized training in airway reconstruction in Switzerland and received further training in skull base surgery, head & neck surgery, and robotic thyroid surgery. This diverse experience allows me to provide comprehensive ENT care across all age groups with a balanced approach that combines clinical expertise, modern surgical techniques, and personalized treatment planning as an ENT doctor in Whitefield.
