About
I’m Dr. Adarsh Nath, an Emergency Physician practicing full-time at a tertiary care hospital in Bangalore.
For over half a decade, I’ve worked on the front lines of trauma bays, resuscitation rooms, and emergency departments
across the city.I hold an MBBS and a Master’s in Emergency Medicine.
But my training didn’t end in the ER.It lives in the adrenaline of every code blue.
In the silence after every failed pulse check.
In the ritual of holding a life, and sometimes, letting it go.My hands know CPR.
My eyes know when it won’t help.This isn’t just medicine.
It’s memory.
It’s grief.
It’s awe.Through both my clinical work and my writing, I try to show what Emergency Medicine truly is in India:
fast, sacred, chaotic, and deeply human.
