About Myself
I am a public health physician with special interest in mother and child. Literature is full of evidence that if a girl child is nurtured with love and care, she grows into a woman, who in turn transfers the same love to her children; eventually responsible adult emerges contributing to a just society.
I was born and grew up in the Indian Himalayas, studied in Christian Medical College, Vellore, South India. I am fortunate to have worked as a public health consultant in more than 12 countries since 1972.
Since August 2013, I have been working as public health specialist to Lesotho Highlands Development Authority, Maseru, Lesotho. From August 2015, after setting up the Public Health division at the Program Management Unit of the Authority; I have been providing remote support to the project as the Public Health Adviser.
I have been living in Chiang Mai, Thailand, since August 2013 and loving it.
About This website
Public health has fascinated me and it is my hobby, not just the job. I can't believe that I will ever have to retire!
Unfortunately, medical care is rapidly moving away from service to a business, promoting curative medicine and ignoring prevention at the expense of damage to the society. Empowering people to take the responsibility of their own health is the key to being healthy (Hippocratic Oath). The sole purpose of this website is to share my life’s experiences in Public Health, with the hope that visitors to the site may find some useful information for their own endeavors. An opportunity may also arise for a dialogue on some of the issues and possibility of further development of ideas and the solutions.
Part of the reason for engaging in this exercise is also to keep my mind occupied with all past experiences; and how it may influence the present and the future, which belongs to the generations to come.

My aim here is to make public health interesting to all. Although it can be highly technical, in life I have tried to make it appealing to those who come in contact with me, so that Public Health becomes everybody's business.
