About Dr. Pooja Anand
Dr. Pooja Anand is a consultant neurologist based at Paras Hospitals, Gurugram, with over 13 years of experience in managing a wide range of neurological conditions. She is particularly known for her work in epilepsy, movement disorders, stroke care, and neuroimmunology — areas where precise diagnosis and a thoughtful, individualized treatment plan make all the difference for patients and their families.
Dr. Anand's academic journey is genuinely remarkable. She completed her MBBS from Lady Hardinge Medical College, Delhi, where she graduated as a Gold Medallist. She then went on to earn her MD in Medicine from Maulana Azad Medical College and her DM in Neurology from AIIMS, New Delhi — widely regarded as India's most respected medical institution. To add an international dimension to her credentials, she has also cleared the Specialty Certificate Examination (SCE) in Neurology from the Royal College of Physicians, United Kingdom, a rigorous benchmark of clinical excellence.
Patients who have consulted Dr. Anand often appreciate how she takes the time to explain a diagnosis without overwhelming them with medical jargon. Whether someone is dealing with a first-ever seizure, a loved one's Parkinson's diagnosis, or the aftermath of a stroke, she approaches each situation with patience and evidence-based clarity. Her interest spans from drug-resistant epilepsy and dementia to neuropathic pain and multiple sclerosis — giving her a breadth of expertise that is especially valuable when a condition does not fit neatly into a single category.
For international patients considering treatment in India, Dr. Anand represents the kind of specialist who combines world-class training with accessible, human-centred care. Her dual grounding in Indian and UK-standard neurology means she is comfortable navigating clinical expectations from patients arriving from different healthcare backgrounds. GAF Healthcare is pleased to facilitate consultations with Dr. Anand for patients travelling to Gurugram.
