MedShr: What inspired you to become a doctor?

Dr.  Daruwalla: The job satisfaction I saw in my father when I was growing up. It was a satisfaction that I felt could not be paralleled in any other career.

MedShr: What do you love about your job?

Dr. Daruwalla: I love showing care and compassion to my patients and alleviating their burden of illness if and when I can. Together with what I call soft skills in the practice and art of medicine, I am very excited to be part of the digital revolution!

MedShr: What are your hidden talents?

Dr. Daruwalla : Administrative, organisational and packing skills!

MedShr: Why do you use MedShr?

Dr. Daruwalla: It’s a simple and easy to use platform that promotes the development of a global network of doctors and healthcare professionals. With the sharing of information ultimately benefiting both users and more importantly patients, MedShr truly has immense potential. Having integrated solutions to existing problems with confidentiality, data protection and consent already addressed, the platform is a great one stop shop for all professionals in the healthcare industry and certainly a must-have for all medical students and trainees.
