Virtual Visit to the Center and maps at:
I am based in the private sector as Consultant ENT
surgeon since 2006 and running my own ENT Center with Deafness habilitation
services. Since 2006, I have also worked with various pediatric
units like Indira Gandhi Institute of Child Health, Spastics society of
Karnataka and National Rural Health Mission updating and upgrading pediatric
ENT services.
I am pleased to say that approach
of improving opd diagnosis is very popular among the pediatricians. We
regularly perform opd based airway assessments in children and have popularised
flexible nasoendoscopy in children.
Our pilot of
Universal pediatric hearing screening was the first universal hearing screening
pilot under NRHM and was presented to secretary to health, Government of
Karnataka. I introduced Swallowing assessments in children at spastics
society and regularly assesses babies who had long NICU stay and are tube fed.
Our team has weaned many babies off the feeding tubes.
I have worked relentlessly with NGO’s, Anganwaadi’s and Rotary for pediatric ENT
assessment. I believe in providing end to end care. All children are
followed up and help for treatment and habilitation.
Dr Sheelu’s
ENT Center has been one of the finalists for BMJ Asia Healthcare Awards in
2015.
My mentors
in India and abroad include the doyens in cochlear implantations and pediatric
airway surgery. With their support and training, we want to make difference in
the lives of many more children....
I also volunteer as “Shikshika” for Balbharathi of my local community and make use of opportunity to spend time with children eg. Volunteer at Bannerghetta Biological Park. I regularly participates in charity events to raise awareness for Pediatric ENT cause.
And finally, I thank God for giving me this wonderful opportunity to work with the kids.
