Radhika Acharya

A memoir filled with warmth, love, pride and humor from a

daughter for her father Dr NGK Sharma, former prof and HOD,

Medicine Dept, at Goa Medical College, and currently retired and

residing in Udupi, Karnataka.

Interspersed with tales of his early struggles and his povertyridden

childhood and adolescent years, memories of his fame and

formidable stature during his career, fun anecdotes of his quirks

and traits, SHARMA Ji AUR BETI is an endearing dedication to

a much-loved ’dotor and patrao’ in the whole of Goa and later in

his home town Udupi. Respected by colleagues, loved by students,

and adored by patients, the ever-smiling Dr NGK Sharma

remains an inspiration to all who encounter and interact with him.

This book was long overdue!
