Dr. Rajeev Giri

Dr. Rajeev Giri is an experienced pathologist in Jayanagar, Bangalore, bringing more than 20 years of diagnostic and academic experience. He is currently practising as a Consultant - Lab Medicine (Pathology) at Manipal Hospital Jayanagar, Bangalore. He is widely respected for his expertise in haematology, cytology, clinical pathology, and laboratory quality systems, bringing a deep commitment to accurate reporting, ethical practice, and collaborative patient care. Over his fifteen-year association with Manipal Hospital Jayanagar, he has played a key role in strengthening laboratory standards, streamlining workflows, and leading accreditation processes that ensure reliable, evidence-based diagnosis.

Dr. Rajeev completed his MBBS from Kasturba Medical College, Mangalore, and his MD in Pathology from S.C.B. Medical College, Cuttack, graduating with an All-India rank and distinction. He underwent advanced training at JIPMER, Puducherry, where he worked as a Senior Resident managing surgical pathology, autopsy interpretation, bone marrow biopsies, frozen sections, and cytology reporting. During this period, he was actively engaged in postgraduate and undergraduate teaching, led slide seminars, tumour board presentations, case discussions, and coordinated CMEs and academic workshops.

His clinical strengths include reporting peripheral smears, diagnosing leukaemias, lymphomas, and pediatric and adult ICU-related haematological disorders, along with flow cytometry correlation in hemato-oncology. He is highly experienced in FNAC of superficial and deep-seated lesions, both guided and non-guided, and has exceptional proficiency in exfoliative cytology of effusions, pap smears, lung brush cytology, urine cytology, and touch imprint assessments for rapid diagnosis. He emphasises the correlation between cytology and histopathology to enhance diagnostic accuracy and clinical decision-making.

In clinical pathology, he manages a wide spectrum of tests, including semen analysis and body fluid cytology, integrating laboratory findings with clinical context for meaningful interpretation. He also serves as Blood Bank Officer, overseeing a licensed blood storage unit equipped to issue packed red cells, plasma, cryoprecipitate, random and single donor platelets. His responsibilities extend to blood bank quality assurance, documentation, transfusion safety, and emergency support for oncology, critical care, and surgical departments.

Dr. Rajeev is deeply involved in laboratory management and accreditation. He has led processes related to NABL and NABH standards, designed SOPs, implemented internal and external quality assurance systems, and developed quality indicators across haematology, biochemistry, cytology, and blood banking. He is a member of the Hospital Infection Control Committee, contributing laboratory insights to antimicrobial stewardship, monitoring trends in hospital-acquired infections, and supporting infection control policies.

Before joining Manipal, he has been handling histopathology, immunohistochemistry, coagulation work-ups, immunopathology, electrophoresis, haemolytic anaemia investigations, and specialised diagnostic assays. He has participated in many academic forums and presented multiple scientific works, including a prize-winning presentation on aspergilloma of the lungs at APCON 2003. His research contributions span rheumatology, cytology, infertility cytology, and liquid-based cytology, and he has participated in international conferences on dermatopathology and histopathology.

Known for his structured reporting style, clinical clarity, and collaborative approach, he remains a trusted pathology partner for multidisciplinary teams. For Dr. Rajeev, pathology is not merely a diagnostic discipline but the foundation of patient management, where every slide, smear, and report has the potential to alter the course of treatment. With his vast experience across haematology, cytology, clinical pathology, blood banking, and lab accreditation, Dr. Rajeev Giri continues to uphold exemplary diagnostic standards at Manipal Hospital Jayanagar, contributing to safe, accurate, and meaningful healthcare delivery.
