- Sorry but we weren't trained for Oxygen politics in medical school. Only how to save lives.
- Smooth & Painless! Honoured to be vaccinated against COVID-19.
- Got COVID 9 months ago, received the 2nd vaccine dose a month ago. Now am COVID positive again! Not unexpectedly, my symptoms are quite mild (vaccines work). Will continue to see patients online. And spread awareness. Stay safe. Stay home.
- Delhi's Bala Sahib Gurudwara is now home to India’s largest Kidney Dialysis facility. There are 100 beds and treatment will be absolutely free. God's work 🙏
- Simply put: Sikhs are the heart and soul of India. Absurd that any other narrative is even floating around!
- Pressing request: If you are COVID +ve with mild symptoms — please, please stay at home! Insisting on a hospital bed will deprive the severely sick of their chance to survive. Our systems are being overstretched beyond anyone’s wildest imagination.
- Beat COVID. Not doctors
- In 2006 as a child, Sahiba nearly died from liver failure. I initially turned her down for a transplant as she was too critical. Her father donated half his liver & insisted we try. And we did! Here she is, at her wedding.. The mother of all miracles! #NationalGirlChildDay
- Black fungus (mucormycosis infection) after COVID can result in loss of vision, brain damage & even death. PREVENT IT: - Avoid steroid overuse - Control diabetes - No unnecessary antibiotics - Hygenic oxygen: clean concentrators, clean water for humidifier, certified source
- Over 95% of COVID patients occupying Oxygen beds in Mumbai are unvaccinated. Vaccines matter.
- No better time & place for little Ahmed from Karachi, Pakistan to celebrate his 1st birthday as he heads home after his liver transplant with us. Our call of duty to save lives cuts across all borders & conflict.
