ECFMG-certified physician · USMLE Step 3 passed
I am Dr. Yashvant Bodar, a physician shaped by rural community care, high-volume clinical settings, and health systems across India, Russia, and the United States. I am pursuing Family Medicine to care for patients across every stage of life.
01 · About
Growing up in a small village in Gujarat showed me how distance, cost, and limited resources can shape a family’s health long before they reach a clinic.
My training has taken me from medical school in Russia to a large public hospital in Ahmedabad, an independent primary care role in India, and clinical experiences in the United States. Across each setting, I learned to ask before assuming, explain plans in clear language, and adapt when the first approach does not work.
Following patients over time and making the next step practical.
Using screening, counseling, and education before illness becomes a crisis.
Building care around the realities of each patient and the place they call home.
