Dr. Akshatha’s academic journey is marked by excellence. She completed her MBBS and MD in General Medicine from Kasturba Medical College, Mangalore, followed by a Fellowship in Haematology-Oncology at Narayana Health City under RGUHS. She then pursued a DM in Clinical Haematology from the Institute of Haematology and Transfusion Medicine, Medical College Hospital, Kolkata.

Beyond malignant conditions, Dr. Akshatha provides specialised care for haemoglobinopathies such as thalassaemia and sickle cell anaemia, and expertly manages bleeding and clotting disorders, including haemophilia, von Willebrand disease, and platelet function disorders. Her clinical interests also extend to consultative haematology, where she evaluates and manages complex thrombotic disorders like deep vein thrombosis, recurrent thrombotic episodes, hereditary thrombophilias, and thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura.
