An integral part of my practice has been my passion for medicine. It drives me to go from strength to strength and encourages me to not only acquire knowledge, but impart it too. I practiced in the US and Canada for over three decades before joining Moolchand. I have had the rich experience of teaching at prestigious institutions like University of Atlanta, Dalhousie Medical School, Cape Breton and Emory University.
