When I began my journey in IVF, there were perhaps only around 10 to 15 doctors practising IVF across India !!
It was a time of pioneers, uncertainty, limited technology, and immense hope. Over the last 35 years, reproductive medicine has transformed repeatedly — and so have I. To remain relevant in medicine, one must keep learning, keep adapting, and keep reinventing oneself.
From the early days of IVF to ICSI, vitrification, embryo culture advances, spindle assessment, time-lapse systems like Embryoscope, donor programs, fertility preservation, and today’s AI driven innovations — every era has demanded new knowledge, new investment, and new thinking.
In recent years, healthcare has also seen the rise of private equity, aggressive expansion, branding, and marketing-led models. Yet through all these changes, one truth has remained constant:
Patients still value experience, judgment, ethics, and genuine care.
What gives me the greatest satisfaction is not competition or noise — it is meeting families years later. A mother introducing her six-year-old child and saying, “You helped bring this child into our lives.” Those moments cannot be bought, marketed, or manufactured.
Medicine is a long journey. Technologies change. Business models change. Trends change.
But trust endures.
Grateful to have walked this path for 35 years — and grateful that patients continue to place their faith in us every single day.
