I work with patients on liver, muscle, gut, and metabolic health—usually together, since these are closely connected, especially in liver disease. Most of my patients are managing conditions like fatty liver, cirrhosis, or a liver transplant, where nutrition plays a critical role alongside medical treatment.

​

I completed my MSc and PhD in Nutrition, then spent years working closely with patients managing cirrhosis and preparing for liver transplants. That work showed me how easily muscle loss goes unnoticed in these patients until it becomes a serious risk, which shaped the direction of my research. Building on my PhD training, I completed postdoctoral research at IIT Bombay on in vitro liver models, investigating nutrition questions at the cellular level rather than only at the bedside.

​

Currently, I am a Clinical Nutritionist at the Centre of Liver, Intestine and Pancreas Sciences at Nanavati Max Super Speciality Hospital, and an Assistant Professor at the NMIMS School of Science. I also continue active research in this space, with a focus on muscle loss (sarcopenia) in liver disease.
