About the Doctor

Madhya Pradesh's Premier
Infectious Diseases Specialist

Dr. Ankesh Gupta is Madhya Pradesh's first and only DM-qualified Infectious Diseases specialist — the highest clinical qualification in this field in India. Trained at AIIMS, New Delhi, the country's most prestigious medical institution, he brings a rare depth of subspecialty expertise to Central India.

After AIIMS, Dr. Gupta served as Assistant Professor at SGPGI, Lucknow — one of India's apex postgraduate institutions — where he was a Founder Faculty member who established the Department of Infectious Diseases entirely from scratch. This gave him an unparalleled foundation in building systematic, protocol-driven infection management.

He is now available full-time at Choithram Hospital, Indore, offering world-class care to patients across Madhya Pradesh and Central India who need expert guidance for complex, resistant, or undiagnosed infections.

Clinical Expertise

Specialized Areas of Practice

Comprehensive management of infections requiring subspecialty expertise — beyond the scope of general medicine.

Pyrexia of Unknown Origin (PUO)
Systematic protocol-driven workup for prolonged, unexplained fevers — including tropical, autoimmune, and malignant causes tailored for Central India's disease burden.
Tropical Infections
Expert diagnosis of dengue, malaria, scrub typhus, leptospirosis, brucellosis, visceral leishmaniasis, and enteric fever — commonly misdiagnosed in the region.
Drug-Resistant Infections (MDR / XDR)
Management of MRSA, carbapenem-resistant organisms, MDR gram-negatives and XDR bacteria requiring advanced microbiological expertise and complex antibiotic strategies.
HIV / AIDS Management
Comprehensive HIV care — ART initiation and optimization, opportunistic infection management, prophylaxis, and long-term follow-up.
Invasive Fungal Infections
Diagnosis and treatment of mucormycosis, invasive aspergillosis, cryptococcal disease, and candida — critical in diabetics, immunocompromised and post-COVID patients.
Antibiotic Stewardship
Rational antibiotic selection, de-escalation, and duration optimization — improving clinical outcomes while combating antimicrobial resistance.
Travel Medicine
Pre-travel vaccinations, malaria chemoprophylaxis, and management of travel-acquired infections. Essential for Indore's frequent international travelers.
Infections in Immunocompromised
Specialized care for patients on chemotherapy, steroids, biologics, or transplant immunosuppression — where infections are atypical, severe, and need expert management.
