Dr. Rajeev Agarwal, all he ever wanted to be was a Gynaecologist, a simple one. Whatever he knows today is all because of his teacher Dr. Pratap Kumar. Under his watchful eyes at Kasturba Medical College, Manipal, he was not only got his MD but also got inculcated into the world of Fertility and Infertility. His further training has been with Dr. Sadhana Desai, a lady with immense knowledge yet someone who is extremely down to earth. He also had the honor of serving a short stint at the Cardiff Assisted Reproduction Centre, Cardiff, Wales, UK. It's been a long journey to reach where he is today but a happy and fruitful one. He tries and read a lot to update himself and also engage other budding fertility experts because that keeps him on his toes and enriches his immensely. It was a common passion between few friends that ultimately transformed into Care IVF despite all odds. Since then its been no looking back all thanks to the blessings and good wishes of patients, loved ones, and friends.
