Profile Highlights :
- Dr. Deswal received his specialised training in infectious diseases at Christian Medical College, Vellore, one of India's leading centres for the specialty. He has broad experience in diagnosing and managing infections across all medical and surgical specialities, and works closely with other departments at Medanta on complex cases.
- His special interests include HIV medicine and tropical fevers such as dengue, malaria, enteric fever and scrub typhus, as well as travel medicine and vaccination. His additional training in vaccinology and tropical medicine supports evidence-based advice on immunisation and on preventing infections before and after travel.
- A significant part of his work involves infections in transplant recipients, cancer patients and critically ill patients, whose weakened immunity makes infections harder to diagnose and treat. He has managed complex conditions including infective endocarditis, meningitis, encephalitis, implant-related infections and pyrexia of unknown origin.
- Dr. Deswal is actively involved in antimicrobial stewardship and the management of multidrug-resistant infections, helping ensure antibiotics are used appropriately to protect both individual patients and the wider community.
