Meera Bhalani, MD

Why I chose Family Medicine: I chose family medicine because it gives me the ability to diagnose and treat a variety of medical diseases in all patient populations. I am able to build long lasting relationships with patients through continuity of care with emphasis on preventative medicine. I believe Family Medicine is the best platform to deliver primary care and it allows me to truly advocate for my patients needs in all aspects of life. 
 

Why I chose the IU Health Primary Care Central Indianapolis Family Medicine Residency Program: I loved the interactions that I had with staff and residents during my interview day and I could tell the residents genuinely enjoyed working together. I was impressed with the programs strong curriculum, various tracks offered, and opportunities for community involvement. I knew this was the program for me, as I would undoubtedly gain the necessary tools to become a successful family medicine physician.  

Personal interests and hobbies: I enjoy baking, cooking, traveling, hiking, reading, watching tv/movies, and spending time with family and friends.
