Nov 14, 2025: From Student to Cardiologist: A Journey that Began with a QMed Workshop

Nov 14, 2025: From Student to Cardiologist: A Journey that Began with a QMed Workshop

A few days ago, I received a LinkedIn connection request from Dr. Bhavik Shah, now a Cardiologist. What made this special was that I remember him from his medical student days — when he attended one of QMed’s workshops as a second-year MBBS student. It is always heartwarming to see how our early participants have grown and evolved in their careers.

And it was on Writing and publishing. I had to speak on the topic "Literature Review" - which is an important part of any research paper. I divided my talk into two areas - Literature Searching and the Literature Review components. I stressed - that it would be easier for them to learn the latter anywhere, but the former - is barely taught. And when I finished…
