As a Critical Care Physician, I offer critical care consultations in a variety of subjects, including respiratory failure, sepsis, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), shock, and other critical illnesses. I also provide second opinions on critical care cases.

I have completed my MBBS and MD in Perioperative Medicine from a reputed medical college, followed by a fellowship in Critical Care Medicine. I have several years of experience working in critical care units in various hospitals and medical centers. I am also a member of several professional organizations and regularly participate in continuing medical education programs to stay up-to-date with the latest advancements in critical care medicine.

My consultation process begins with a thorough evaluation of the patient's medical history, physical examination, and any available diagnostic reports. Based on this information, I will discuss the patient's condition and treatment options with them and their family members, providing guidance and support throughout the process.

First Consultation vs Second Opinion When faced with a medical issue, it can be overwhelming to know where to turn for advice. Many people turn to their primary care physician for guidance, but in some cases, a specialist may be necessary. In other cases, seeking a second opinion may be helpful. Here, we'll explore the differences between a first consultation and a second opinion. First Consultation: A first consultation is typically the first step when seeking medical advice. This appointment may be with a primary care physician or a specialist. During the appointment, the doctor will gather information about the patient's symptoms, medical history, and any other relevant information. They may perform a physical exam, order lab tests, or recommend imaging studies to help diagnose the problem. After gathering information, the doctor will usually give the patient a diagnosis and recommend a treatment plan. This treatment plan may involve medication, lifestyle changes, or referrals to other specialists. It's important to note that a first consultation is not always enough to make an accurate diagnosis. In some cases, further testing or a second opinion may be necessary. Second Opinion: A second opinion involves seeking advice from another doctor after receiving a diagnosis from the first doctor. This can be done for many reasons, including: Confirming the diagnosis: In some cases, a second opinion can help confirm a diagnosis or provide a different perspective on the problem. Evaluating treatment options: A second opinion can also help evaluate different treatment options that the first doctor may not have considered. Seeking reassurance: Some people may seek a second opinion simply to feel more confident in their diagnosis or treatment plan. When seeking a second opinion, it's important to bring all relevant medical records, including test results and imaging studies, to the appointment. This will help the second doctor make an accurate diagnosis and provide the most appropriate treatment options. Conclusion: A first consultation and a second opinion are both important steps when seeking medical advice. While a first consultation is usually the first step, a second opinion can be helpful in confirming a diagnosis, evaluating treatment options, or seeking reassurance. It's important to work with your doctor and be proactive in seeking additional advice when necessary.

My fees vary depending on the type of service and consultation required. I accept payments through a variety of methods, including credit/debit cards, bank transfers, and online payment gateways.

I understand that unforeseen circumstances may arise that require the cancellation or rescheduling of a consultation. I kindly request that patients inform me at least 24 hours in advance if they need to cancel or reschedule their appointment.

You can schedule an appointment with me through my website or by contacting my office directly. I am available for both in-person consultations and teleconsultation services, depending on the patient's needs and preferences.

Yes, I offer teleconsultation services for patients who prefer to consult with me from the comfort of their own homes or if they are unable to visit my office in person due to travel or other logistical reasons. I use secure, HIPAA-compliant telemedicine software to ensure patient privacy and confidentiality during these consultations.
