Dr. Barathi Sivasailam has been interested in science since she was young, particularly biology. She has always been amazed by the human body and its inner workings, and she wanted a career that combined her academic interests with her passion for working with people. She grew up watching her mother, who is a physician, touch so many lives in a positive way – medicine was the perfect career for her.

Dr. Faisal Bhinder grew up across the globe in Africa, the Middle East, England and Lahore, Pakistan where he earned his medical degree from the King Edward Medical College. Following his training in internal medicine, geriatrics and then gastroenterology and hepatology, he entered private practice in Southern Maryland, establishing Calvert Gastroenterology and serving as Chief of the Division of Gastroenterology and Director of Endoscopy at Calvert Memorial Hospital.
