Dr Vijaykumar Gawali

MD pharmacology
Drug Safety Physician at Parexel

After earning her MD in Pharmacology, she explored the corporate sector but soon realized that her true passion lay elsewhere. She made the bold decision to leave that path and pursued several fellowships in diabetes, thyroid disorders, nutrition, and counseling. This journey led her to a fulfilling career in teaching, where she inspires young minds to embrace the principles of rational prescribing.

Currently, she serves as a Drug Safety Physician at Parexel, a role she has held since 2022, while also practicing as a family physician at Nirmal Polyclinic since 2015, with a keen focus on endocrine disorders. Her extensive experience in academia includes serving as an Assistant Medical Professor at HBT Medical College from October 2015 to November 2022, and she has held a managerial position at Glenmark Pharmaceuticals for a year in 2014.

She completed her MBBS in 2008 from Rajiv Gandhi Medical College and Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Hospital, followed by her MD in Pharmacology in 2014 at Topiwala National Medical College, Mumbai. Notably, she has published several papers in esteemed medical journals, contributing significantly to the field.
