Jasmine Kamboj, MD

I am a board-certified medical oncologist. My practice philosophy is that every patient is a human being first, then a patient. I offer face-to-face virtual visits for a variety of health services and conditions.

My hometown is: Delhi, India

I am passionate about: being a mother and an oncologist. These are the two most fulfilling aspects of my life and I enjoy both to the fullest. I am also passionate about spirituality and fashion. Spirituality teaches us that we are all interconnected, and fashion allows us to explore and express our inner self in a variety of colorful ways.

I became a doctor because: I come from a family of doctors so I always knew I wanted to be a doctor. I enjoy that there is so much opportunity to give in this profession.

Something I have learned from my patients is: that every patient is human and we must not forget the "being" of the patient during treatment. Their self, their choices, their uniqueness and their interpersonal relationships are all crucial factors while formulating a treatment plan.

One of the challenges of this career that I enjoy is: the ever-changing face of oncology, which is challenging and enjoyable at the same time because I can learn and grow.

My personal health goal is: to meditate on a daily basis.

The best thing I've done for my health is: I work out 2-3 times a week at the gym and eat a vegetarian diet. I'm even contemplating a vegan diet for myself.

My personal achievements include: attending Inner Engineering Course by Sadhguru in Philadelphia in 2019, starting fashion shows involving oncology patients and staff in Bemidji that raised awareness in a fun way.
