About Me:[edit | edit source]

A couple of months back, I qualified as clinical physiotherapist with a First Class degree from the Department of Physiotherapy, Father Muller College of Allied Health Sciences affiliated under the Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Sciences . On completion of my undergraduate studies, I was felicitated for securing the highest marks in all subjects throughout four years and also awarded as the Best Outgoing Graduate from my batch. I am eager to secure challenging roles concerned with neuro-rehabilitation. I also have a keen interest for research in the neuro rehabilitation sector.My studies along with my internship have provided me with a broad proficiency in clinical physiotherapy assessment and conventional treatment techniques.
