Summary
Dedicated healthcare administrator and medical professional with over 7 years of progressive experience in clinical operations, quality management, hospital process optimization, and multi-facility administration. Having served as Regional Medical Operations across Apollo Spectra, Cradle, and Fertility, and having led medical advisory coordination, I bring strong capabilities in operations leadership, talent management, NABH accreditation, quality improvement, and hospital workflow transformation.
I am now seeking to transition into a Head of Operations / Operations Lead role, where I can leverage my end-to-end understanding of clinical governance, strategic planning, change management, and cross-functional team leadership to drive organizational efficiency, patient-centric outcomes, and sustainable growth. I am particularly interested in taking ownership of large-scale operations, expansion initiatives, process excellence, and digital transformation in healthcare settings.
