I have sub specialization interest in Bone and Soft Tissue Pathology and will pursue it after the fellowship in Surgical Pathology.
Why Me?
I believe no challenge is too big to be overcome and any problem can be solved. I have the thirst to learn, get trained and become expert in Surgical Pathology.

I have the ability to stay focused in stressful situations and can be counted on when the going gets tough.
My curiosity has always driven me towards success. My curiosity toward disease and healing and made me pursue medicine, my curiosity towards digital pathology and molecular pathology made me pursue pathology and now my curiosity towards cancers and targeted therapy is driving me to do fellowship in Surgical
