Shantanu Rai

Shantanu Rai is a physician and writer whose fiction reveals the hidden toll of America’s healthcare system. His stories draw on years spent caring for patients and witnessing the quiet struggles of those on both sides of the exam room. Raised on Bollywood films, whodunits, and puzzles, he now turns to storytelling to capture what medicine alone cannot. A Dangerous Diagnosis is his debut novel. When not practicing medicine or writing, he enjoys hiking, family movie nights, and a strong cup of chai.
