About Dr. Rajnish Kumar
Dr. Rajnish kumar has twenty-six years of experience in neurology. Got his DM from AIIMS New Delhi, which is the gold standard for neurology training in this country. He sees patients and also writes prescriptions for them. He founded an NGO dedicated specifically to epilepsy management because he saw how many patients in India live with poorly controlled seizures.
He has been a principal investigator in multiple international clinical trials, which means his patients sometimes get access to newer treatments before they become widely available.

Previously Director and Head of Neurology at Paras Hospitals, Gurgaon, and senior consultant at Fortis Memorial Research Institute.

Patient Experience & Approach
Parkinson’s patients say Dr. Rajnish kumar changes their medicine slowly as the disease worsens, instead of giving high doses right away. Families of stroke patients like that he clearly explains what recovery might look like: what will likely get better, what might not, and what physical therapy can really do. People with bad migraines who tried many things say he worked hard to find their triggers instead of just giving them the same pain medicine as other doctors.
