Medical School: Kakatiya Medical College

Born in Vijayawada and raised in Hyderabad, India, I recently moved to Indiana to fulfill my dream of becoming a family physician in the United States. We are a close-knitfamily of five—my little world. I am deeply passionate about patient care and believe that true healing transcends cultural and social barriers. It feels like a beautiful coincidence, or perhaps divine guidance, that I have joined Ascension St. Vincent Family Medicine—a place where I can live out the values I have always cherished.
 

Outside of medicine, you’ll often find me playing badminton, experimenting with Indian cooking, or enjoying long drives.

I was born in Toronto, Canada, and moved to the United States at the age of nine. I grew up in Shippensburg, Pennsylvania, where I completed my undergraduate studies at Shippensburg University before moving to Indianapolis to pursue my medical degree at Marian University Wood College of Osteopathic Medicine. My passion for Family Medicine stems from the opportunity to serve as an advocate for patients and their families as they navigate the healthcare system. I am especially interested in women’s health, obstetrics, and caring for underserved populations. Outside of medicine, I love spending quality time with family and friends, traveling to discover new places, and exploring the local food scene as an enthusiastic foodie. I’m thrilled to be continuing my medical journey with residency training at St. Vincent in Indianapolis!

Lubhani Sharma

Medical School: Dayanand Medical College

I was born in India and moved to Canada as a teenager. After high school, I returned to India for medical school, inspired by my early experiences shadowing my mother at her clinic. During medical school, I found my passion for preventive care and community-based medicine. With my family now settled in the U.S., pursuing residency here felt like a natural next step. 
Alongside medical school, I am completing a master's degree in Health Information Systems and Technology, which has broadened my understanding of healthcare innovation and patient-centered care. During my clinical rotations across the U.S., and through my work with street medicine and jail medicine programs, I developed a deeper commitment to serving vulnerable populations, experiences that reinforced my desire to treat patients holistically and advocate for healthcare access for all.
I’m especially interested in in-office procedures, improving healthcare access for underserved communities, mental health, and chronic disease prevention. What draws me to family medicine is the opportunity to provide comprehensive, long-term care while building meaningful connections with patients. I’m thrilled to start this new chapter of my life in Indianapolis.
