In India, I have taught undergraduate and post graduate students in Pramukh Swami Medical College at Karamsad Gujarat where I served as the Professor & Head of Orthopaedics.

I am one of the first persons in the country to do robotic spinal surgery in 2013. I have been a regular visitor to the Sultanate of Oman for over a decade as a Senior Consultant, Spine & Orthopaedics.
