I joined ESS from Nairobi South Primary School in 1958 and finished in 1961. It was here that I decided to take separate science subjects and opted to do Medicine.

After leaving ESS, I did my pre-medical course at Delhi University and my medical degree course at R.N.T. Medical College, Udaipur, Rajasthan. I qualified in 1970.

In 1971, I married Jaspal who had also qualified as a doctor from Patiala Medical College. We came to the UK in 1972. After working in hospital specialities, we both joined General Practice in 1974-75. We have been living and working in Sheerness, Kent ever since. Both our daughters, Harmandeep and Sumneet are also doctors.
