    Overview

  • Dr. Gunda Srinivas is a paediatrician and paediatric emergency medicine specialist with over 17+ years of experience spanning General Pediatrics, Pediatric Emergency, Critical care, Child development, Medical education, Community empowerment, Digital health & Innovation. He is currently practising as a Consultant – Pediatric Emergency & Paediatrics at Manipal Hospital Kanakapura Road, bringing focused expertise in the comprehensive care of infants, children, and adolescents across emergency and routine clinical settings.

  • Dr. Srinivas completed his MBBS from JJM Medical College, Davangere, in 1999, followed by a Diploma in Child Health (DCH) from the Institute of Child Health and Hospital for Children (Madras Medical College), where early exposure to high-volume paediatric care laid the foundation for clinical skills and empathy. Seeking deeper expertise, he pursued DNB Paediatrics at Manipal Hospital, Bengaluru, gaining structured exposure to tertiary-level paediatric medicine.

  • His interest in acute, time-critical decision-making led him further into Pediatric Emergency Medicine, culminating in a Fellowship in Paediatric Emergency Medicine (FPEM) accredited by the Society for Trauma and Emergency Paediatrics (STEP) at Manipal Hospital, Bengaluru. Recognising that child health extends beyond acute illness, Dr. Gunda Srinivas expanded his academic scope with a Postgraduate Diploma in Developmental Neurology (PGDDN) from Kerala University.

  • For families, Dr. Gunda Srinivas is known for his calm presence in emergencies, clear communication, and ability to guide parents through complex decisions without overwhelming them. He strongly believes that good paediatric care is not just about treating illness but about reducing fear, preventing avoidable harm, and empowering parents. His approach ensures that parents are well informed, reassured, and confident, whether the setting is an emergency room, consultation room, or teleconsultation.

  • Beyond bedside care, Dr. Srinivas has consistently worked on building and improving systems. He has played a key role in setting up Pediatric Emergency Departments in his previous roles. He designed clinical workflows and emergency preparedness training and developed low-cost, high-impact solutions for resource-constrained settings. A notable example includes leading the setup of a fully functional Pediatric Emergency Unit in a Bengaluru hospital in under 190 minutes, combining clinical readiness, staff training, and systems thinking.

  • Dr. Gunda Srinivas is widely recognised for his early and sustained involvement in digital health and telemedicine. As Clinical Strategy Lead at a leading AI-driven digital healthcare platform, he designed and implemented telemedicine clinical protocols and worked closely with engineering and AI teams to translate real-world clinical needs into usable digital workflows. He contributed to the development of chatbots, tele-triage systems, and AI-assisted decision support in his previous role.

  • His public health engagement includes disaster relief (Tsunami 2005), COVID tele-triage for government agencies, and community education initiatives. Dr. Gunda Srinivas believes the future of healthcare lies in compassionate care powered by intelligent systems. His core values include ethics, teamwork, humility, continuous learning, and service to the underserved. His long-term vision is to build child- and family-centred, tech-enabled care models that extend beyond hospital walls, integrating emergency care, prevention, telemedicine, home care, and digital intelligence into a seamless experience.
