About me
Hello and welcome to my Web page! I'm a pathologist at Kaiser Permanente Baldwin Park Medical Center.
Biography
I am originally from India and grew up in the beautiful Archipelago of Bahrain. After completion of medical school and internship in India, I traveled across three continents and practiced medicine in three different countries before moving here to California. I met my wife here and we live in Orange County with my daughters and son. I am the first doctor in a family of mostly engineers and businessman. I love to hike and recently scaled Mt. Kilimanjaro in Tanzania, a life-changing experience. Next? The Himalayas.
About my practice
“Pathology” means “the study of diseases.” and my job is to make diagnoses on surgical specimens and biopsies. I work very closely with a dedicated team of surgeons and internists to provide the best results for your care. I subspecialize in soft tissue and bone pathology, and I am part of our sarcoma team here at Baldwin Park Medical Center. The team includes an orthopedic oncologist, a musculoskeletal radiologist, and a medical oncologist with expertise in treating sarcomas.
How I thrive
In recent years, I have modified my eating habits gradually to a point where I have cut back drastically on red meat, eat a lot more fruits and vegetables, and drink plenty of water. I hardly ever drink soda any more. I try to avoid eating too late at night, as well, and make it a point to walk or bike at least four to five miles every day. I stop eating at least four hours before I go to bed. Try these few tips and you'll see the difference in just a few weeks!
