Healthcare specialist and experienced dentist blending clinical excellence with healthcare management and analytics.
What I'm looking for
I am a motivated dental professional and Business School certified healthcare specialist with extensive clinical experience and training in healthcare management and analytics.
Across senior and associate dentist roles, I managed high-volume practices, led full-mouth rehabilitations, streamlined clinic operations, and oversaw staff, lab coordination, materials and equipment to ensure patient-first care.
At IIM Kozhikode I completed a Professional Certificate in Healthcare Management and Analytics and delivered a capstone qualitative analysis on teleconsultation, creating a standardized reporting framework to support data-driven decisions.
I currently consult as a dentist focusing on diagnosis, treatment planning, quality assurance, staff training and regulatory compliance, and I seek opportunities where I can combine clinical expertise with strategic healthcare operations and analytics to improve patient outcomes.
