Dr. Ashish Gummadi (M.P.T), B.P.T, C.M.C. Vellore, is a physiotherapist whose clinical work has moved across orthopaedics, neurology, and sports rehabilitation. Trained at Christian Medical College Vellore — one of India's most demanding clinical training grounds — he learned neurology the way it is actually practised: at the bedside, with a reflex hammer, a tuning fork, and enough patience to let the examination speak before the scan does. His clinical years have been spent on the problems this book exists to solve — the stroke survivor relearning to stand, the vestibular patient afraid to roll over in bed, the young athlete rebuilding a knee and the confidence that goes with it — and that grounding shapes every page: nothing here is included unless it earns its place at a real bedside.
