Dr. Pallavi Nagdeve completed her bachelor’s degree in dental surgery in India, worked for two years, and is now pursuing a master’s degree in public health in Alabama, United States.
Due to her passion for dentistry and oral surgery, Dr. Pallavi pursued this subject during her internship at a private hospital in India. She expanded her horizons to include non-clinical aspects since she feels more connected to them. As a Medical Investigator, she delivered lectures on lifestyle, ergonomics, and medical crises. The work required frequent travel, which she enjoyed. She moved abroad to pursue more education and new chances.
The Legit Talks spoke about Dr. Pallavi’s struggles in India, to which she delivered a sentimental response. She was reared by her mother alone when her father passed away at a very young age. While others celebrated holidays, Dr. Pallavi sat in her home alone while her mother worked. Her mother is her greatest source of strength and motivation. It was a difficult choice for Dr. Pallavi to leave her in India and move to another nation. However, as usual, her mother encouraged her. Her mother is also cared after by her brother.
The job route we take is mostly determined by our primary interests. Dr. Pallavi selected public health because she enjoyed and excelled at it in her prior position. The education system in the United States affords her the opportunity to investigate her topic of interest in more depth. She had the choice to select from a number of subjects.
Speaking about the future of her industry, Dr. Pallavi told The Legit Talks that chances for public health services are better outside of India. In addition to having a variety of possibilities to pick from, the potential for job advancement in foreign countries is rather great.
In dentistry, there are few postgraduate specialisations. Dr. Pallavi investigated the clinical and non-clinical elements of dentistry before making a decision. According to Dr. Pallavi, many international students enrol in public health courses before moving on to dental school. She intends to seek a PhD after completing her current coursework.
Dr. Pallavi discussed how she manifested her public health career. During her internship, she began her investigation into jobs in public health. Nevertheless, it was a difficult decision to study overseas given the current economic climate and the lack of information about how things will turn out. The pandemic then halted all activity for about a year. Dr. Pallavi did not give up, manifesting that she would pursue a career in public health services and beginning her journey in 2021.
The Legit Talks questioned Dr. Pallavi about her greatest accomplishments, and she said that she still has more to accomplish. However, she discussed her struggles since childhood. Her father passed away when she was in sixth grade. It was difficult for her, and she became depressed as a result. Doctors advised her mother and teachers not to force her to study and to let her to recover at her own speed. She gradually emerged from her despair and passed her board exams. She completed all of her academics alone and was never dependent on anyone else. Dr. Pallavi viewed each advancement as a stepping stone. It gives her great pleasure to bring gifts to her loved ones, particularly her mother and brother. This is her biggest achievement.
Dr. Pallavi thinks that everyone should pursue their dreams. There will always be those who say you cannot do something. Ignore their advice and pursue your dreams.
Dr. Pallavi wishes to convey to the audience that if they wish to study abroad, they must maintain concentration and not lose their way. Research every aspect of the career, including the application procedure. It is difficult to maintain motivation in challenging circumstances, but you can motivate yourself.
Dr. Pallavi appreciated The Legit Talks Show team’s efforts and praised the show’s focus on the experiences of ordinary people. Everyone has their own narrative, and when these experiences are shared on a publicly available platform, it inspires others.
