Dr. Ram Shetty is our out-of-state "ringer" from West Virginia. It's a convoluted story how Ram from West Virginia joined Team Sinai. Here it is, in 25 words or less.....Ram's sister-in-law Seska volunteered with me in Sri Lanka after the Tsunami of 2005. When Seska heard I was going to Haiti, she told me about her sister-in-law and brother-in-law, Julia and Ram, both of whom are Family Medicine specialists. Both volunteered to join our team, but they had to flip a coin to decide which one would go to Haiti, and which would stay home with the kids. Ram won the toss (Sorry, Julia!). A Family Medicine specialist, Ram will likely be commandeered by the ER at HAH to help treat the ~100 patients that come to the Triage/ER on a daily basis.
Dr. Ram Shetty was born in Calcutta, India but came to live in Atlanta, GA when he was only three years old. He graduated from Georgia Tech with a BA in electrical engineering and then got his MD from the Medical College of Georgia. He went on to a residency in Family Medicine at West Virginia University and has been in practice with Julia his wife, in rural West Virginia since 2003.
