A Conversation with Dr. Seth
An Expert Talk
I decided on a career in Physical Therapy early on, right out of graduating from high school. I was accepted into one of India’s most prestigious academic medical and rehabilitation institutes at Sancheti Institute of Orthopedics & Rehabilitation- College of Physiotherapy. During my undergraduate training at this institute followed by clinical training and rotations at multiple large scale private and community hospitals in the city and neighboring, it was during this time that I discovered my love for human anatomy and physiology, mainly in the branch of neurology.
Human brain always has and continues to mesmerize me with its complexity, intricacy and its capacity for neuroplasticity. I was very fortunate in undergraduate school to have the influence of and exposure to some remarkable aesthetic physicians, surgeons, physiotherapy clinicians who were also my professors and continue to remain my mentors- Dr. K.H. Sancheti, Dr. P.K.Sancheti, Dr. A. Shimpi, Dr. G. Bhalerao, Dr. V. Kulkarni, Dr. S. Retharekar, Dr. N. Bedekar, Dr. V. Joshi, Dr. R. Nagarwala, Dr. Gore, Dr. A. Gangwal, Dr. C. Pradhan, Dr. R. Deshpande, Dr. S. Hadgoankar, Dr. S. Patil, Dr. A. Irani to name just a few. My love for physical therapy and rehabilitation motivated me to pursue post graduate training and very fortunately, was accepted for a Post Professional Doctor Of Physical Therapy (PP-DPT) program at Loma Linda University, California. It was at this medical center of academic excellence, my interest in specialty neurological tracks such as inner ear disorders (vestibular), brain injury, stroke, other central and peripheral nervous system disorders, grew further under the remarkable guidance and teaching of some of the finest and very renowned physical therapists and research scientists- Dr. T. Cordett, Dr. T. Nelson, Dr. E. Lohman III, Dr. W. Swen, Dr. E. Johnson, Dr. C. Wilson, Dr. B. Bradley, Dr. J. Syms to name a few. I also had the opportunity to work as their graduate research and teaching assistant in different neurological speciality tracks and further assist and proctor DPT students under their guidance. Since then, there has been no looking back and I’m extremely grateful to all these wonderful clinicians, my mentors, across the globe who continue to inspire me and my career graph in the journey of neurological rehabilitation.
I find fulfillment in being able to help patients regain confidence, independence and being able to return to their prior level of function affected from various neurological diseases and disorders. Whether I’m working to help them improve their gait, balance, strength, functional movements, recover from dizziness and disequilibrium or helping them optimize their baseline health and fitness due to general deconditioning and debility-my ultimate goal is to help patients find harmony between their physical independence and mental well-being. It is a privilege to be able to combine my passion and knowledge to help them heal.
