Dr. A. Chandra Shekar

MBBS, MD, MSc, PHD - General Medicine, DNB - Nephrology

I am a kidney specialist, a researcher, and a fitness freak. Mens sana in corpore sano—Latin for “a sound mind in a healthy body”—is my health mantra. I founded the Safe Kidney Club and the Internet Health Hub, and I help people be healthy — to have a healthy body, a resourceful mind, and a docile nature — so they can enjoy and lead meaningful and prosperous lives. I completed my MBBS from Bangalore Medical College, my MD in internal medicine from M.S. Ramaiah Medical College, Bangalore, and my doctorate in nephrology from the National Board of Medicine, New Delhi. Further, I obtained the Masters of Science (MSc) in Organ Transplantation from the Postgraduate School of Medicine, University of Liverpool, UK, and a Ph.D. from the Renal Research Lab, Centre for Biomedical Research, VIT, Vellore.
