For Dr. Sharma, medicine has never been a career, it has been a passion with a dedicated interest in working together with patients to create excellent health care outcomes. His interest in gastroenterology specifically advanced endoscopy, developed as he wanted to be at the cutting edge of medicine with treatments that previously required an open surgical procedure that now can be done endoscopically.
