About me
I am a Musculoskeletal Physiotherapist, practicing in Mumbai, India. I have completed my graduation and post-graduation in MSK from Seth G.S. Medical College and KEM Hospital, Mumbai. In my 10 years after post graduation , I have had the opportunity to work in 2 Tertiary care hospitals and am now into private practice. I am a registered physical therapist in India, the state of New York and also hold a general registration with AHPRA. I have keen interest in upper limb and hand rehabilitation and am finding opportunities to contribute towards advances in rehabilitation. I am a true believer that good communication and patient education are the base of a effective rehabilitation pyramid. Although I am clinician by heart, I am now in the process of exploring my career further and volunteering for Physiopedia is my first step in this journey.
