WORK HISTORY
- One year of compulsory rotating internship starting from:
(11-04-96 till 10-04-97):
12 weeks in general medicine
12 weeks in general surgery
12 weeks in preventive and social medicine
12 weeks in obstetrics and gynecology
4 weeks in ophthalmology department as my elective posting
- Medical officer in Primary Health Centre-Bijepar
The said post was a general practice post and I got to attend all sorts of common illness patients that included patients from all age groups right from pediatric and antenatal cases to handling geriatric cases. I also had the privilege of handling all the obstetric and gynecology cases too. This post was for a period of 9 months after which I joined my residency program in Obstetrics &Gynecology.
- RESIDENCY .
The next three years were part of my postgraduate studies in obstetrics and gynecology in Topiwalla National Medical College
(10th august 1998 to 31st july2001)
It was divided as follows:
First year - Junior resident
Second year - Senior resident
Third year - Chief resident.
- In the first year
I was introduced to the system of post graduate training. Under the watchful guidance of my teachers and my immediate senior residents, I came to know the basics of patient management spending hours and hours in the labour ward, the antenatal and postnatal ward, the operation theaters and outpatient departments of gynaec and obs.
- In the second year, for the first six months,
I was posted in a peripheral hospital. We were only two residents managing a unit under the guidance of our honorary doctors. This post was the busiest part of my postgraduate training. But I thoroughly enjoyed it and at the end of it I was very confident and was absolutely ready for any challenges in obs and gynaec.
- The next 3 months, I was posted in the Surgery department. Again this was a challenging job and I got to learn a lot in the basics of surgical management.
- The next 2 months, I was posted in the NICU. Here I got to learn the basics of neonatal resuscitation, also I got to learn a few basics in pediatric care. Though 2 months period is very less to learn pediatrics, at the end of it I was confident that I can manage a neonate till the pediatrician arrives (in case he/she is delayed due to some unavoidable reasons).
- The last one month of my second year and the third year
I was back in my department and being the senior resident I had a huge responsibility as Nair Hospital is one of the four main tertiary center in Mumbai City and we used to get referrals from the entire city and beyond and those patients would be in really bad shape. We had a great unit. Two university teachers, two senior lecturers were always there to guide us. And among the residents we had lots of residents and I was supposed to guide them. I got to do a lot of quality work in this period. I had done two theses during this period, one for my master’s degree and the second for my FCPS exams. (The national board accepted my MD thesis). Thus I spent a lot of time in doing research and I had to do a lot of studies also as I had all my exams to clear. During the said period I indulged myself in a lot of teaching of the undergraduate students and my junior residents. The neonatal mortality meetings and the maternal mortality meetings were the most taxing, but these meetings taught us a lot many things. Every week we had a seminar in our department and I enjoyed taking part in it.
I cleared my MD, DGO, FCPS, and DNB exams all in the first attempt.
Experience after getting MD degree:
- One year residency in the department of Obstetrics and Gynecology in V.N.Desai municipal hospital, Santacruz, Mumbai.
Period: August 2001 to July 2002.
V.N.Desai Hospital was a secondary level government institute
located in Santacruz, Mumbai catering to the vast suburban population. Here also the OB/GY department was managed by two units with two residents each and guided by Honorary gynecologists. Thus, fresh out of Medical college with a Masters degree, here I got to sharpen my clinical knowledge and also my operative skills.
Here we used to get students from the nearby homeopathic medical college. And I was there favorite teacher. I had taken large number of bed side ward lectures and also classroom lectures for these students.
- Medical Officer (as a Specialist)
Sub district hospital in Kankavli
Period: from Feb 2003 to April 2004
The said post were a general practice post with the added responsibility to manage Obstetric and Gynac patients and I got to attend all sorts of common illness patients that included patients from all age groups right from pediatric to geriatric cases. But as I had specialist qualification in ob/gy, I also had the privilege of managing all the obs and gynac cases. Being a Sub-district hospital, the obstetric work load was really tremendous as I was the lone specialist.
- Medical officer,(as a Specialist)
Government Rural hospital,
Village: Katta, Taluka: Malvan, District: Sindhudurg
(December2004 to August2006) Here also the work was similar to that mentioned above so I have not written it again. The only difference was that I was the in-charge medical officer of the institute, thus I had the added advantage of looking after the management of the institute. Thus I gained a lot of experience in Hospital Management during this period. And to add on to it, I was exposed to a lot of obstetric and gynecological emergencies in a rural set up with the bare minimum facilities and backup.
- Medical officer
Civil hospital, Sindhudurg:
(12-12-2006 till 6-04-2007)
The Civil Surgeon assigned me to manage the obstetric and gynecology department. I enjoyed the work over here as we used to get referred patients from the entire district. Thus, I got to manage a lot of complicated patients with me as the head. My decision making improved greatly over here. In May 2007, I got an opportunity to go abroad in the republic of Maldives as a consultant in Obstetrics and Gynecology.
- Consultant in Obstetrics and Gynecology:
Republic of Maldives.
From Nov 2007 to Nov2008
This was an absolutely new experience as I was in a different country with different type of people having their own different customs and way of living. This island nation taught me a lot of things and made me more resilient, more self sufficient and being in a foreign country I came to know about my limitations and made me very cautious. And till date this experience has taught me when to draw a line while managing serious patients, that means to what point I should manage and when to refer and how to get the help for the same.
Here also I was involved in a lot of teaching not only for the other junior doctors, but also the nurses and other para-clinical staff. I was greatly appreciated and all my lectures were attended by large numbers.
However after 1year and 5 months approximately, I started feeling homesick and lonely. (my family was in India and my wife was not ready to shift as there were no good English medium schools for my child). So finally I decided to return to India.
- Consultant in Obstetrics and Gynaecology:
The next nine months from 1st Jan 2009 to 30th Sept2009
I worked as a visiting consultant in obstetrics and gynecology in various hospitals in Thane, my birth place.
- In march 2010,
I shifted to a place named Virar.
I worked in different private hospitals as a visiting Consultant
From Oct 2009 till August 2014.
- In August 2014, I joined VVCMC as a Medical Officer.
I worked as a full time medical officer in Obstetrics and Gynaecology in various local municipal hospital under Vasai Virar Municipal corporation from August 2014 till September 2018
- I would also like to add that I was a state government appointed
laparoscopic surgeon for doing single puncture laparoscopic tubal ligation in government sponsored camps and I had done thousands of laparoscopic tubal ligations.
